The Superweaks Superweekly SupercastCorey StoriesOur inaugural episode is a commemoration of our late bassist Corey Bernard. Evan's younger brother by blood, but all of The Superweaks' younger sibling by bond. We share our favorite stories from the road about Corey, and we also discuss the way he touched the lives of so many with his charming combativeness. Mikey coins a classic goof, the boys have a few yucks, and emotional honesty wins the day. Love you & miss you, Corey. Happy birthday, bud.

Game BytesGame Bytes :: July 29, 2020 :: Tentacles, Pseudopods, and KhazadsIn this week's episode we dig into a handful of very different (yet strangely contiguous) games to talk about! First, LeGrande gets into World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth. It's an MMO with a tinge of tentacle talk. Dale talks about his experience with The Lord of the Rings Online, continuing the swords-and-magic MMO theme and revisiting an oldie-but-maybe-goodie. Finally, Jeremy returns to tentacles with Carrion on Xbox Game Pass, and makes a sideways jaunt to other blobby appendages with the full release of Teenage Blob.
