Episode 117 - EB Games Scalping Drama, Sam Neill Tribute, & Pop Culture Deaths That Broke Us

Episode 117 - EB Games Scalping Drama, Sam Neill Tribute, & Pop Culture Deaths That Broke Us

The lads are back for another rambling journey through the chaotic world of nerd culture. In Episode 117, Zachary recounts his trip to the brand-new Grindzone TCG brick-and-mortar storefront in Brookvale before the conversation shifts to the corporate blunder of the week: EB Games. The guys break down the retailer's baffling statement defending their inflated Pokémon 30th Anniversary pre-order prices as an "anti-scalping strategy".

Following a tragic, sudden loss in the local acting community, the crew pays tribute to the iconic New Zealander (whom Australia proudly claims), Sam Neill, sharing their ultimate favorite performances from Event Horizon to Merlin.

Finally, things get dark and moody as the team unloads a massive list of the most shocking, heartbreaking fictional deaths across pop culture history. Whether it's the heartbreaking exit of Gambit in X-Men '97, the traumatic execution of Ned Stark, the ultimate anime tragedy of Nina Tucker, or the brutal loss of Dom in Gears of War, no tear duct is left safe.

They wrap things up with quick thoughts on Enola Holmes 3, the Legally Blonde prequel series Elle, Absolute Batman, and a highly controversial debate comparing Heath Ledger's roles in A Knight's Tale and The Dark Knight.
