You know, in the 90s it was just nothing but uh homeless uh commercial actors that they hired to do all the dub voices and now hold on, why you getting on dubs?

SPEAKER_00
So I've been thinking about the games that I've played as a kid and the shows that I watched and all that stuff, and this one game in particular. Every time I went to my grandfather's house, went down to the basement, popped the cartridge in.
SPEAKER_01
You're gonna date yourself, be careful.
SPEAKER_00
Like, I remember everything about it. I remember the music, I remember the routes that you need to take, I remember where the enemies are, remember all of that stuff. Like it's now a part of me.
SPEAKER_01
We developed the characters and it like went with us to school, went with us in our shower thoughts, went with us just everywhere.
SPEAKER_00
Yeah, I mean, we don't have to talk about the shower stuff.
SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01
Yeah, a weekly podcast where we go over the shows and the games, all the different franchises that had a cultural impact and made us who we are today.
SPEAKER_00
Right. And that is particularly important for us, you know, two people who work in the film and entertainment industry. The creative legacy left behind by these projects uh do inspire us quite a bit, yeah.
SPEAKER_01
Yeah, we're gonna be getting into the nitty-gritty. We're gonna examine why these things have the staying power that they do and how they shape the medium. We want to ask fun questions. Like, if we were to hypothetically re-examine some of these uh franchises that we love, if we were to do them today, what would we keep?
SPEAKER_00
What would we change?
SPEAKER_01
What deserves a whole new chapter for a brand new audience?
