Schedule for the Week of 05/12/2025

May, what else do you have in store for us? Brad continues his jury duty, we continue to play and talk about games, and Giant Bomb… continues? I’m about done with Hollow Knight, or at least I think I am. I don’t think I’m doing any Path of Pain stuff anytime soon… I’m also excited to keep moving through Clair Obscur. I just got another character and a new combat mechanic, so I’m excited to check that out. My kids have been playing a ton of Revenge of the Savage Planet together, without their Old Man, so I’ve pestered Will to jump back in with me this Monday! Then on Tuesday, Abby and I will be streaming together while Alex spends some time with family. On Friday Alex and I are back together, but will it just be the two of us? We’re not sure either! A bit of a TBD for this Friday, staying flexible!

Over on the Podcast-side of things we’ve got the Watchcast continuing with Metallica’s Some Kind of Monster! Lot’s of thoughts on that one. On the Ramblecast, Jeff Bakalar joins us to talk about his new venture and how he’s feeling! We’ll also have Brad back for the Podcast on Wednesday and I think he’ll be talking about that new Doom!

What a May!

The Nextlander Watchcast
On this week’s Watchcast it’s our MOST CONTROVERSIAL MOVIE EVER. Well, sort of. We tackle Metallica’s making-of documentary about the notorious St. Anger recording process, Some Kind of Monster, and our intrepid Watchcast crew comes out the other side more divided than we’ve maybe ever been about a Watchcast movie.
