The In the Deep End gang sits down with actor Paul Morgan Stetler, who played Curtis Craig in the classic FMV horror adventure Phantasmagoria - A Puzzle of flesh. We discuss classic FMV horrors, genre tropes and writing of LGBT+ characters in adventure games. It's a point and click FMV extravaganza all the way.

The game was released in North America on November 26, 1996. Though technically a sequel to Roberta Williams' 1995 game Phantasmagoria, Puzzle of Flesh shares no connections with its predecessor in plot nor characters, as Sierra initially intended the Phantasmagoria title to be a horror anthology, with each installment of a different story and style. While not a critical or commercial success, A Puzzle of Flesh, like its predecessor, is remembered for its controversial violent and sexual content, which led the game to be heavily censored or banned outright in several European and Oceanic countries.

The three heroes are back. We welcome musician and chef extra-ao-rdinaire Alpha Chrome Yayo back on In The Deep End for a new episode all about Yakuza and how we feel about the series. Jesse and ACY reveal their favorite of the series, while Damiano makes a mean Majima impression.   In the Deep End - A Gaming Podcast Episode 18   #gaming #yakuza #gamingmusic

In Episode 16 of the In the Deep End podcast, Jesse and Damiano review Martha Is Dead, Ghost on the Shore, MacGuffin's Curse and Warp Frontier from Andrew Goulding and more. The boys duke it out over whether Disco Elysium is a good game or not, and tease a special episode for next week.

Jesse and Damiano talk with Pam from Cannot be Tamed about her journey talking about games on YouTube and streaming them on Twitch. Along the way, we stop off at a bunch of games both new and old and discuss our opinions on things like Dark Souls and Bloodborne. In other news, gamers ruin everything.

This week, Jesse reveals that Pokemon Legends Arceus is his first-ever pokemon game, while Damiano has been playing Vertigo from Pendulo. The boys also discuss Microsoft buying Activision Blizzard and what that means for the Game Pass juggernaut, as well as Sony buying Bungie.

Look out! Jesse and Damiano meet a powerful enemies on the road, Alasdair Beckett-King. Mr ABK is a writer, a stand-up comedian, an actor and a game developer to boot. As they discuss adventure games and comedy, will they be allowed enough pause between one joke and another to escape?

Jesse and Damiano talk about whether the Nintendo Switch OLED is worth it and talk about Unforeseen Incidents' new Switch port from Application Systems.

The one where Damiano enters the "starvation zone."  It's all very personal in this one as your hosts reflect on the past year, talk directly to you, the listener, offer some life advice and motivation for those who might need it, and discuss what they're looking to change next year. 

Why has Halo Infinite rustled Jesse's jimmies? Why does Damiano have a vendetta against Tim Schafer? This one's all about what the Deep End team have been playing and what they recommend, what games the industry got wrong, and why Breath of the Wild should be called Breath of the Mild. Santa's loaded and on his way while Mrs. Claus is ducking for cover in this Christmas special.

Warp Frontier developer Andrew Goulding talks about the game's development, as well as his game development journey working for the likes of Codemasters, Amazon, Apple, and more. There's also more talk about those dastardly adventure games and nostalgia versus modernisation.
