RPGrinders EP 832 - Break and Frank Got High

They were supposed to upload this episode but they got high.

Not even going to explain the contents, but it is one to listen to, so give it a go!

RPGrinders EP 831.5 - News Reel #3

Sorry for not having a show the last two weeks, but at least Eric has a summary of all the news you might have missed during that downtime! 

RPGrinders EP 831 - Weirdo Ming Loyalists

In this once again shorter episode, the crew might have a nice chunk of news, but they get through it pretty quickly. Highlights are that Fate/ Hollow Ataraxia Remastered gets a release, and Yukes buying Aquaplus. Afterword, Break reviews the first John Wick film, and Frank reviews Diablo IV. Stinkos abound as we commiserate the decline of democracy once again, but at least we can take some solace that MAGA is turning on Trump because of weed. And that more or less makes up the episode. If you want to tune in live for all the shenanigans , be sure to listen on Twitch/Youtube Fridays at 7 PM EST!

RPGrinders EP 829 - RIP to the Prince of Darkness

The Grinders are back. WOOH! And we are ready to celebrate, brother. What ya gonna do when RPGrindermania runs wild on you?! The same ol' Grinders but now with more headbutts, low blows, and eye pokes than any Face could handle. WOOH!

In a surprising Face turn Break actually shows up on time to join Eric and Frank for a 3-Vs-News Hardcore Match. The Grinders challengers? The dreaded News is back. The News brought with it the announcement that the Dragon Quest soundtracks are coming to Apple Music. The next member of the News is a release date for Nicktoons and the Dice of Destiny. In a shocking Heel turn, Fate/Extra Record joins the News with a delay until next year.

After pinning the news for a 3 count, the Grinders moved on to their next matches against the Reviews. With skill and mastery of the top rope, Eric is able to dominate the spoiler free review of the Fantastic 4: First Steps. Meanwhile, Frank used his signature Sharpshooter to make the Dog Soldiers tap-out. In the squared circle, no werewolves are a match for professional wrasslers. Werewolves can't SMEEEEEELLLLL what Frank is cooking. 

The next match for the Grinders is against their greatest rival, the Stinkoes. It's a heated rivalry. Every fight ends in injuries or worse. Some former Grinders have never been heard from since. With the death of a music legend, the loss of an entire television network, and the funding cuts to the REAL news media, the Stinkoes are looking increasingly unbeatable. But if the Grinders want to be the man, they will have to beat the man. The Stinkoes are the man.

The Stinkoes are tough, but the Grinders have their own tag partners to help them even the score. The Sweetoes are back and they will always have the Grinder's backs. No Ladder Match is a match for the return of a favorite tv show or the death of a man who tainted wrestling for decades. Apparently, he didn't say his prayers or eat his vegetables.

With only one opponent left, the Grinders face off against their greatest challenge, the Panic Room. The only thing standing between the Grinders and shiny new belts. The ultimate slobberknocker, between 1st Amendment rights or going to jail. Can the Grinders triumph and hoist the gold they will soon wear around their waists? Or will the Grinders just have to get ready to suck it?

One thing is for sure; everyone just made it onto Eric's List. WOOH!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And that's the bottom line because BreakMan says so!

 

RPGrinders EP 828 - Superman's Banana Addiction

In this Banana filled episode of RPGrinders this is much banana talk about rpgs in the news section. Unfortunately no Banana RPGs. Later, Frank and Eric have a review for Superman, who definitely loves bananas. Frank also reviews Marvel's What If? season 2's first episode, The Gorge, which probably has bananas, and Megan 2.0 which probably doesn't. Then the crew gets into the Mushy bananas part of the show, the Stinkos of the Week. More Gender-affirming care bans, and the continued unraveling of democracy. Very rotten bananas. In fact, the crew gets so hung up on crappy bananas, there is little room for Sweetos other than Frank having an amazing Banana Vacation. but even that leaves no time for Panic Zone this wekk. Maybe next week they will and a Panic Zone involving bananas. Be sure to tune in next banana on Fridays at 7 PM EST, on Twitch/Youtube. OH, BANANA!   

RPGrinders EP 827- Alligator Auschwitz

In this 4th of July edition of RPGrinders the guys get thru a short news cycle, Break talks the passage of the disastrous new bill that passed in congress, and they discuss the merits of boycotting Microsoft.  Join us LIVE the first 3 Fridays of the month (with a few exceptions) 9EST on twitch and YouTube http://twitch.tv/RPGrinders. Thanks for listening!

RPGrinders EP 826 - Pride Never Dies

The Grinders are back and just in time for Pride month. What's that you say? "But Pride month is over." Well, bitch, it's ALWAYS Pride month for the LGBTQ+ community! As proud as I am to finally start stepping out into the larger community, I'm also proud to host a show with two of best Podcasters to put on a mic.

Another thing that fills me with Pride is always showing up just in time to miss the news. Except this episode, in which I was forced to read every news story! The grueling agony. The minutes of my life I will never get back. I can't believe that they forced me to read both stories! 

I may have my Pride but we all have our Stinkos. Some of the worst horrors of the week, from mundane to catastrophic. Unfortunately, our country is in total decline. In less than 6 months, Trump and the corrupt justices have turned America into a fascist nation. As we watch human rights be trampled, we must all hold strong to whatever gives us Pride. As things get worse, we can't let kill what makes us strong.

Even though most of us are watching our rights disappear. One group seems to be getting more laws created in their favor, the gun lobby. That's right, the Grinders once again address the issue of gun violence in the United States. Not speaking for anyone else but I have no Pride in our cultural love of guns.

We never want to end the show on a sour note. So, the Grinders have not one, but two brand-new Driver's Seats! Both DSs are based around getting older. How do the Grinders feel about Birthday parties and going gray? The Pride of the middle aged as we head towards just being old. 

They can take away everything, but they can never change what is in our hearts. We must hold on tight to our Pride and our beliefs in right and wrong. There is no question that this country has gone very wrong. Don't let the country or the villains corrupt or sway you away from what is right. Like listening to RPGrinders, that is always the right thing to do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fuck Trump and fuck that "Big beautiful fuck you" to the American people.

 

 

 

The quote on something I was given while marching in the Cincinnati Pride Parade: 

"That once again you are on the frontlines of hate is just so unfair and so wrong. Sorry.

Still, you've been here before. They've picked the wrong scapegoat. Your strength will see us through. 

Keep being you. You are loved. Hugs!"
