And we are finally at the end of the Contra Retrospective! Eric and Fanboymaster talk up the many Contra clones that weren't spawned from Konami, but instead other third parties. There are so many, that we only really cover the most notable ones. Eric also tells you why Contra Rogue Corps is bad, and there is a discussion on Blazing Chrome! That's it for Contra, but keep your eyes open and ears clean, since there will be other retrospectives to look forward to!

Frank and Break host tonight's episode without Eric, who is fighting sickness. We hope he gets better soon so he can teach Break a lesson. Until Eric returns, the Grinders will be joined by Break's only friend, the cowbell.
Super Robot War X in the Eastern market, Break Man's bad Australian accent for post-apocalyptic crpg Broken Roads, and the bankruptcy of Alphadream are some of today's short news segment.
Eric is sick, there is a war on vaping, Bernie Sanders has heart trouble, and Frank goes to war with Progressive insurance. With only two hosts, there are still plenty of Stinkos.
The Stinkos can't over shadow the great Sweeto news that there is a second whistleblower! The Grinders have some very different political views but they all agree that the Criminal and Chief is a danger to the people of America, the country, and the world. The end of his Presidency can not come soon enough.
For this episode's Free For All, Frank and Break discuss their favorite and least favorite seasons. The cold of Winter, Halloween in the Fall, the Summer sun, and Pumpkin Spice seasons.
Let us know what you think or ask us a question. Just tweet @RPGrinders and tag #dearbreakman.
Does Break really believe that pumpkin spice is a government invention to control the minds of the people? Nah....
or does he?!

Eric and Fanboyaster are back with another Contra retrospective, and this time it's about the latter-day entries. Going from the PS2 games, to a DS sequel and a Wiiware game, the series saw it's end. It's more or less of half n' half in quality, which was indicative of where Konami was in the industry. But fear not listeners, as there is still more Contra waiting for you, with Konami own clones. Stay tuned next time for it!

In this episode of RPGrinders, the crew gets through a chunk of news like usual. Afterwards, Eric has a review of Promare, with Frank reviewing X-Men: Dark Pheonix and 3 From Hell. Frank also has a new highscapade with what he calls 'The Ring of Fire'. Then we get into our stinkos, with the highlights being the Area 51 idiots expecting something being there. At least you can get goofs doing the Naruto Run. The Free for All is about whether the crew has had a breaking point with anyone over their life. Also, Break will make you cum, but he doesn't cum cheap.

It's Friday the 13th and there is a full moon. Horror is in the air and Frank couldn't be happier.
After a week of peace and quiet, Frank and Eric are forced to put up with the return of Break Man and his cowbell! But Frank gets the last laugh as he forces Break to read the news and butcher Japanese names.
It's a short news week, so the Grinders have plenty of time to spend on Bug Fables, Yo Kai Watch 4, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, Ring Fit Adventure, Nioh 2, Romancing Saga 3, Star OCean, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, and Umihara Kawase BaZooka.
A Dynamic Duo Highscapade keeps the mood upbeat. Even Stinkoes about Joe Biden, Funimation, and Nicalis can't ruin the show. In fact, Frank is in such a good mood that the Grinders talk about one of his favorite subjects: horror movies.
