It's finally a Happy New Year because Break Man makes his long overdue return! Fresh out of Twitter jail and joined by Harmie. With Break's return, the trilogy is complete. The Rpgrinders (Frank, Eric, and Break) rise once again
2021 is going to be a busy gaming year, so the Grinders better prepare their selves for a lot of news articles. Stories like: Nintendo buying the developer of Luigi's Mansion, production ending for all but one PS4 model, Her Love In the Force an Otome police academy visual novel is releasing on January 21st, and a new PS4 demo of Ys IX: Monstrum Nox is available now.
Even though the Grinders try to keep the show upbeat, they always take time to address some of the week's worst news. Not much could be worse than the attack on the United States capital. It has left everyone in a state of shock. Now we have fear for where this might lead, in the future. We are sad for our country, and our fellow Americans. We are angry that domestic TERRORISTS were ever able to accomplish so much! We are mad that those TERRORISTS are still being enabled by right wing media.
Frank, Eric, and Break hope to never again witness such a disgraceful event.
With the bad news out of the way, the Grinders have to tackle the most important topic of the month. What is the Greatest 80s Television Theme Song? Will Star Trek: TNG boldly overcome Lee Majors performing the Unknown Stunt Man? Believe It Or Not became a radio hit but can it beat Simon & Simon? Is a brand new life around the bend for Who's The Boss or glory for Night Court's saxophone? Will Knight Rider drive off into the sunset or will turkeys fly for WKRP in Cincinnati?
Only 32 songs left. Which one will reign supreme.
Where ever you go, whatever you do, always remember to was your genitals.

On this episode of RPGrinders, the holiday season is in full swing! We find out what it's like to deal with shitty house guests, crappy employment benefits, and what it takes to wear a kilt.
As always, we start the show with the latest JRPG news. We got some details on Swery's upcoming debt management rpg, The Good Life. King Arthur: Knights Tale gets a January release date. The oddly named N1RV-Ann-A gets indefinitely delayed. Squenix announced a Remastered version of Saga Frontier. And did we mention, you can play as a freaking cat or dog in The Good Life?!
Dear BreakMan, is back for the second week in a row! It's time to answer the age old question, what to do when someone shats in your home, borrows your shower curtain?
Even though this is a festive episode, it wouldn't be RPGrinders without stinkos and we always have plenty! Eric is forced to work on the weekend due to circumstances outside his control. Frank is dealing with shipping issues. While COVID is still ravaging America with no relief in sight. The American people have suffered for months with no relief from the Federal government.
We always have the sweetos to balance out the stinkos. We can't have a world of only darkness or light. We have received some good news about the COVID vaccine. It's incredible that a vaccine was able to be created so quickly! Frank celebrates his improvement in gaming skills. It's a lot of work but we think he will enjoy the payoff. We would also like to congratulate Elliot Page for having the courage to live his truth. The stigma may be hard but the trans community just got stronger!
With all the regular work done, it's time to determine the Greatest Christmas Song of All Time! 32 songs will battle to decide but only 1 can win! Do you dream of a White Christmas or singing Chipmunks craving a hoolahoop? Is Santa Claus coming to town or are the Jingle Bells going to beat him to grandma's house? Does someone famous like Mariah Carey, Paul McCartney, Burl Ives, Brenda Lee, or Chuck Berry have the greatest Christmas song?
Silver bells. Silver balls. Silver pubs. Silver boobs.

On this Friday the 13th episode of RPGrinders, the wait is finally over for Frank and Eric. They both got their own Playstation 5s! Was it worth the wait? Is it everything they had hoped or will they be selling on E-Bay by the end of the night?
This week's news features some upcoming releases with release dates. The action shooter RPG Poison Control get an April 2021 release. The second DLC pack for Dragon Ball Kakarot is coming out on the 17th of this month. Mass Effect Legendary gets a vague release window of Spring 2021. And Shiren the Wanderer is getting a physical release on the Switch.
Besides the Playstation 5, Eric and Frank have some reviews. Frank reviews the Playstation 5 game Astro's Play Room while Eric has a lot to say about Ori and the Will of the Wisps.
It wouldn't be RPGrinders without Stinkos, and this episode has several. Break is mad about the American Injustice system and the deaths of celebrities. Just like anyone with at least the most basic level of intelligence, Frank is pissed at FoxNews. And Eric is disappointed in the Japanese entertainment producer Aniplex.
This months bracket is one week closer to determining the Greatest Scary TV Show of All Time! We are down to 32 but only 16 can continue. Will American Horror Story fend off the Belmont Clan of Castlevania? Can the Buffy slay Tales from the Dark Side? Are the Deadites scarier than vampires? Is Eleven strong enough to fight off horny teenage werewolves?
The tears of MAGA brings a smile to my face.
