  • Ojisancast 07: FLCL- Free Sample
    Sep 9 2025

    It's time to get a little bit fooly and a little bit cooly as our resident Ojisans discuss the seminal 2000 anime FLCL. Does it live up to their memories? How obvious is the symbolism? If a pink haired woman hit you in the head with a guitar, would a suggestively shaped horn come out of your forehead? Because the anime is only six episodes, they also briefly go over all of FLCL's bad sequels that came out a decade and a half later. Also Braden and Chris' friendship origin story and bemoaning how Grantland used to be good.

We try to break down the funny emergent gameplay systems and steer folks to the better games in the genre.

    Gino "ThatPinguino" Grieco and Braden "ArbitraryWater" REDACTED join forces to talk about the hottest genre to hit the indie scene in the last ten years. No, they're not talking about cozy farming games or boomer shooters, instead they're talking about deckbuilders! If you've ever played Slay the Spire and wanted to know what else was out there, don't worry, they've got you covered. Like, seriously. They've both played a lot of card games and if you want to hear two adult men get into the weeds about what makes a good "One of Those" you might get something out of this!

  • Episode 246: You Have To Pay Us To Play More Death Stranding
    Aug 14 2025

    In this episode Gino, Pete, and Em discuss Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding! We cover the game's porting mechanics and bridge building before unpacking the deep, deep symbolism of knots, strands, and beaches. We spend a good amount of time discussing whether a game that deliberately sets itself in America has any need to make the environment look or act like America and the many Kojima-isms at play in this game.
