Buckle up folks. This one is a certified, S-tier banger. No amount of artisanal show notes can prepare you for this oversized episode. Initially Tegan and Brian ride solo and discuss the finer points of finer theaters and agree on heavy penalties for theater texters. Then Rocky shows up and reveals that he is older and that people hit him because of that.
The gang digs into to what they have been playing. Spoilers, it includes more Zelda. They are covetous of Fierce Deity Armor, have a friendly disagreement over Persona 5 streaming, discover that the Xbox is personified by a shouting Will Ferrell and Rocky reveals that he is not in the Cobra Club.
Rocky and Brian attempt to wade through important issues while Tegan is out of office. They discuss how no one is happy with Mass Effect Andromeda, manufacturing variations, speed running, the soulful and confessional nature of malt liquor videos and deep dive the first season of The Good Place. Later they try to sort out why there is an increasingly large and colorful population of loudmouth jerks on YouTube and what, if anything, should be done about. It's heavy lifting to be sure. Finally, they dig into Breath of the Wild in an effort to determine which character is the thirstiest and if Gerudo trips to Pound Town are on the DL because Gerudo are super busy. Spoilers: they are.
Here's another episode coming right at you with some artisanal show notes. This time Rocky, Tegan and Brian discover the power of last names and hip-hop air horns. They spend more time digging into The Legend Of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Tegan also reveals herself to have an abnormal distaste for jazz while waxing nostalgic for peak anime. Rocky and Brian advocate for watching Get Out and the group comes down against YouTube stars who drink malt liquor in ski masks.
Some discussion is had around various recent things that Activision has screwed up. Nintendo's GDC presentation is picked clean and we determine that bad boyfriends don't buy flowers.
Brian, Tegan and Rocky gather for a special, emergency episode to gush about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. We find that Rocky has just dipped a toe in because he has wrecking youngsters in the hawt, new Bomberman jam. Tegan has been bear watching, riding spotted horses and greeting enemies by putting her spear away. Brian has been getting bodied left and right all over Hyrule and suddenly understands the appeal of Dark Souls.
One of the biggest observations our fearless hosts make is that the experiences are diverse and how they have been passing their time is already unique and personal in the early going. Especially getting a fly purple suit. Tegan and Brian put aside the Zelda talk long enough to make a wager. So join us for a special off-cycle episode with a weird length which the hosts hope doesn't throw off the audience's expectations for the show.
No Bokoblins were harmed in the recording of this roundtable.
Rocky, Tegan and Brian struggle with the bullet pointed agenda item of building a connection with the audience. We found out later that you don't necessarily need to build a connection with the audience when you are juicin' to get those drops or buying imaginary Magic cards for your phone. IMPOSSIBLE COIN digs into their favorite games for the Wii U in preparation for Nintendo Switch which includes a reflection on why Sonic Racing Transformed is kind of sad. The crew also veers off topic and spends like a good 20 minutes talking about how hyped they are for Get Out. The most important lesson from these artisanal show notes is don't search for D. Va on DeviantArt. Don't search for anything on DeviantArt.
Join us as we kick off this craziness! It's the first episode of IMPOSSIBLE COIN! Rocky, Tegan and Brian discuss objectives for the new show and come up with the best purpose statement ever. They dig into what they have been playing which includes some gacha goodness from Nintendo, cat collecting and yet more Hitman. They pick apart some recent news events and discover that all of Gamestop's problems can be solved with couches. However Evo's problems can not be solved with a couch. Enjoy!
