Jimquisition - Podquisition Episode 155: The Spice Girls
play

11/09/17 • 70 min

On this week's podcast, we talk about turn-of-the-millenium British pop culture to alienate most of you. After that, we chat Sonic Forces, more Assassin's Creed, the Xbox One X, and some other bollocks.

On this week's show, we mostly complain about angry commenters who are stupid, wrapping it all up in some discussion about Metal Gear Solid V and Mad Max. Elsewhere, Laura drinks a space lesbian energy drink, a serial killer runs amok in Camden Town, and there's loads of other bollocks that we bang on about.

Jimquisition - The Spin-off Doctors: Need For Speed
play

06/07/16 • 123 min

Aaron Paul ditches meth for misogyny in this ill-advised theatrical adaptation of Need for Speed. It's basically just a car film but with very few races, too many characters, and some of the stupidest character motivations in cinema. Also this may be our most meandering episode. The drugs like me.

On this week's podcast, we manage to get a whole lot of conversation in about Fallout 4 and Steam's refund policy, both of which made the show fly by! We also provide our predictions for E3, and by that I mean Laura has become legitimately scary and might very well be in line to direct a new Hostel movie. Good lord. All that, and loads more toss for you to enjoy!
