This week, we list the top 3 gaming franchises we've never played, but want to start. We, coincidentally, also have a nice discussion around Animal Crossing & Greg's hesitance to dive into New Horizons. The Resident Evil 3 demo dropped & Sam bought a new game while finishing another...he's slowly becoming a gamer. We break down the top 20 best selling games of February & previously version exclusive Pokemon are now available for everyone in Sword & Shield! Movie theaters are closed; what are publishers doing to cope with that? We give our review of a new stand up special on Netflix. Matt Hardy made his AEW debut & WrestleMania is changing in a huge way next month! Right before Sam's CGC Spotlight, we debut a new segment that will be a recurring part of the show for the foreseeable future.

We're joined by Matt Carlson, guitarist & lead singer from the Connecticut quartet A Will Away, for a very special interview. We talk about the band's evolution from Sunday is My Weekend to AWA, Kickstarting a record & writing an EP in just three weeks! The band's latest EP, Soup, is available now & we talk about that record's specific song structure being "not-your-typical-pop-punk" in nature. We even uncover what "TOIFMG" stands for! From stripped down acoustic to live on stage, Matt talks about making intricate changes to songs that have a lasting effect on the way they are performed & even selling a van to our boys in Con Etiquette. We also put Matt through our rapid fire segment where he tells us his favorite Chinese food menu item, memories of the Boston & New York music scene & even a small discussion around Better Call Saul & the Nintendo Switch! Go spin Soup (& all of A Will Away's stuff) now & support those guys. We love them.

We are joined by Doug Cousins & Ryan Culligan of the amazing band, Bearings, live at the Foundry in Philadelphia, PA. Bearings is on tour supporting Sleep On It & we had a chance to catch up with them about life on the road. We talk about the tour so far, being a band from Canada trying to make it in the States, other awesome Canadian acts & even some fun facts about Ottawa, where the guys hail from. They go deep into the difference between releasing an EP (Nothing Here Is Permanent) & an LP (Blue In the Dark) all while peppering in some great hockey talk. We play a game where Doug & Ryan take a Maple Leafs' player & associate him with a pop punk band. Of course, we put them through our rapid fire segment & have a great time, as always! Check Bearings out on social media & listen to their tunes (links below)... you won't regret it! They even let us know they just finished recording a new album!

In this very special bonus episode, we interview the man who sang the original Pokémon anime theme song; he wants to be the very best, like no one ever was. The incredibly talented Jason Paige joins us! Not only is Jason the voice behind the theme song, but he sang another classic from the Pokémon anime, Viridian City! Jason tells us the story of how he was cast as the voice to millions of childhoods, when he realized Pokémon would be a smash hit & what it's like to take that song on the road in front of live audiences, among other things. Outside of Pokémon, Jason is the voice of dozens of recognizable jingles for Mountain Dew, Bounty, Subway & a ton more. He's performed in theatre, on television, in films & even on a video game. One of his biggest claims to fame was rapping with Michael Jackson live on stage for the King of Pop's 30th anniversary tour. He goes deep into all of these stories & so much more! We even has a long discussion about Rent, a production Jason has also been a part of. As always, we end the interview with our rapid fire segment, where Jason chose the best starter Pokémon & even his favorite thing about the 90's!
