We've been threatening to do it for a while so this week Krupa and Gav got into a room for almost TWO HOURS and sorted this out.
There's a few videos we mention in the podcast that we wanted to link to including Daniel's interview with Nolan about Dunkirk and also a supercut of every time we asked a celebrity if they'd seen The Pr...

Are you ready to say (another) goodbye to Isaac Clarke in the final episode of the series?
Once again, we'd like to thank you all for making this entire series possible. We are constantly overwhelmed by your support and we simply wouldn't be here without you.
As we were putting this final episode together we sadly learned of the passing of a member of our community, Sam Michael Gross. We've dedicated this entire series to Sam, which you'll see at the end of th...

Hey everyone,
Just a little reminder that today is the last day that our new design, I. Death, celebrating our beautiful firstborn son, Chimpy, is on sale.
The store closes at midnight tonight UK time, so that's 8pm EDT | 5pm PDT | 11am AEDT
Clocks do change that night here in the UK, but we've been told the store will close at midnight UK time. But if you fancy one, make sure you get in before then just to be safe.

Quick update on our latest merch range, The Fate of the Finchy.
After some consideration, we’ve decided to only release the first of these designs, Death, at this time.
Why?
Well, we didn’t realise that buying different designs would incur additional postage costs for you. This is because they’re printed in different factor...

So, if there's anything you'd like to ask me about my experience with Elden Ring, RETRY or how we...
