FIRST ANNUAL CRUB AMIIBO TOURNAMENT VOD

In case you missed it last week, here was the first crub Smash Ultimate amiibo tournament between Justin and Kevin's toys. It actually went insane, you should watch this

Podcastémon Episode 034

Justin is still dead. It's so sad. Alexa, play Despacito.

If you were worried that no one is mentioning James' bottle cap collection being referenced, don't worry. Chris is on the case. We accidentally talked for these episodes for over an hour. It's like a Shuckle shower. Real talk. The Shuckle episode? So, so good.

On episode 035 of Podcastémon we'll be covering Wobuffet and giving it its due. Episodes 173, "Wobbu-palooza", to 178, "The Grass Route" (great name) are on our agen...

Saddle up and prepare for 'Horseplay', Crub's Gaming Horse Bracket

Two years ago, there was a question. "Who is the best horse in gaming?"
This question led to an ambition...neigh, a dream. A dream to subject others to video content where gaming's best horses raced for the top position on a bracket.

For some reason, we granted this dream via a livestream and archived the experience for our crubscribers.

Now...now you are here. You've found this post during Horse Week, a very official thing, and can enjoy it without giving us money.

Farewell to 2025

We hardly knew ye, 2025.

First things first, you are cordially invited to an amiibo™ Smash Bros. tournament tomorrow at 7 PM Eastern on our Twitch. Our two best Smash Players, Justin and Kevin, will be taking their hands off of the controller to reach into jars to extract amiibo. Then making them fight to see who wins. You will want to be there. "No, I don't." You thought to yourself just now....

Brody Shows Chris Freddi Fish 4: The Case of the Hogfish Rustlers of Briny Gulch

Luther almost invokes "6 7" in the first few minutes.

Chris messaged Brody this tonight to tell him it's another reason he doesn't like it. Brody then pulled up Matthew 6:7 from scripture.

"Matthew 6:7 from the Bible advises against "vain repetitions" or "babbling like pagans" in prayer, teaching that people shouldn't think they'll be heard for using many words, as God already knows their needs before they ask, contrasting this with sincere, private prayer mentioned just before....

Podcastémon Horizons Episode 001

Surprise! Podcastémon is evolving, with Chris, Kevin, and Justin tackling the ongoing Pokémon Horizons anime series! Frankly, we just really needed something to break up Ash's Johto filler streak. Also, we keep hearing this series is actually really good, and we want to experience it as it's running.

So, Podcastémon Horizons will see us watching 3 or 4 episodes of Horizons and coming here to talk about it with you in each episode. Whereas with the original series we have vague ideas ...

Happy holidays, everyone. That includes you. It's the best time of year and we wanted to celebrate by putting together a gift guide for #gamers.

That means if you've already seen the episode, there's more here! Plus, there just might be a special holiday discount to this Patreon as a thanks for reading our crubletter.
