My first ever video game is out! Download FREE for PC/Mac to enjoy this comedy horror #RPG that's Undertale meets The Office, where you'll learn that the only thing worse than a zombie apocalypse is being trapped with your work colleagues... 😈 jonrichter.itch.io/reanimati… #gamedev

Silver Pines credits roll… and then roll again after I went back to get the other ending!! A proper Lynchian masterpiece of a game 🥰🥰

Have been a video gamer all my life… Always a joy to talk about great games with @richterwrites!!
New episode alert!! 🚨Today we’re talking FLASHBACK 😍 Paul Cuisset's early 90s cinematic video game masterpiece is undoubtedly cyberpunk, pulling from all manner of movie inspirations of the time - tune in to hear the Hosts discuss it, its legacy, its troubled sequels, ramble on about completely off-topic stuff, and attempt questionable French accents! hostsintheshell.buzzsprout.c…

Silver Pines is absolutely brilliant. It’s like being in Twin Peaks but as James Sunderland instead of Dale Cooper.

My main takeaway from the whole Man City saga is that a depressingly large number of people don’t know how to spell or pronounce ‘asterisk’ 😒

Finally had a chance to get cracking on Silver Pines tonight - loving it so far! Deadly Premonition, Twin Peaks and a bit of Silent Hill meets… Flashback??

I had an absolutely ace time chatting to @Jim_Keen_ this past week!! After his appearance on Hosts In The Shell he decided to interview me in a role reversal scenario, which we recorded as a video to showcase how handsome we are 😳😎 Watch here 👇🏻👇🏻🥰 youtu.be/9dxiMmFXF9U?is=R8Dg…

Always brilliant and fascinating to chat to Jim, and always fun to discuss a classic movie (and slag off a questionable remake!) 🍿🥰

Cena did a good job, the Coyote was obviously great, but I did not anticipate a show-stealing performance by Foghorn Leghorn 🤣
Settling down to watch Acme Vs Coyote! I’ve got high hopes 🤞🏻

Had loads of fun recording one of our no guest, all ramble episodes with @Cleric20 😄🥰 Tune in to hear me spend about fifteen minutes awkwardly trying to address the fact that I find the Major quite attractive despite her status as a cartoon 😳
New episode alert!!! 🚨 Today we’re discussing 2026’s brand new anime adaptation of The Ghost In The Shell - we’re avowed superfans of the super-serious 1995 movie version, but this zanier take is apparently closer to the original manga… but is it any good?? Find out here 👇🏻👇🏻🦾 hostsintheshell.buzzsprout.c…
