Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot, much like this show assumes we forgot about our old friends Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler? Join us for our first episode of 2019, where we encounter a brief mystery in the show’s opener, talk about our New Year’s celebrations, and make some Very Very Good recommendations. Later, we talk about Pegasus’s proclivities, HitClips, failed McDonald’s branding experiments, and the WORST EDITING CHOICE THIS SHOW

Twas the night before Duelmas, and all through the kingdom, not a pod was to be cast, (okay, maybe just one). Our Top Five lists were placed by our microphones with care, in the hopes that St. Kaiba soon would be there!

Welcome to Wednesdays, duelists! This week, Jimmy and Tyler spend a significant chunk of the intro talking Smash and Sonic, then enter into a duel-heavy episode that we actually liked! Listen in as we discuss the classic “duelist walks into a bar” scenario, friendship symbol tattoos, rampant censorship by 4Kids TV, and Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon. That’s right, we’re going metal. What makes Keith a “Bandit”? Does Pegasus’ discretion know no bounds? Will anyone ever acknowledge that card-carrying

We’re back in the multi-part saddle, as Joey prepares to duel everyone’s favorite intercontinental champion: Bandit Keith! Join us as we recommend some fine media content for you, discuss Dual Duel Verification, and make a pitch for Everybody Loves Flame Swordsman. Later, we analyze Joey and Mai’s very real character development, and continue to speculate on whether the rules of Duel Monsters are an oral tradition. Plus, the return of Pepper!

We’re back (for real)! Tyler finally has internet and a proper audio setup, so we’re back in action with a full, real episode for you. Although, in true YAMPod fashion, we royally fouled up the planning on this one. So you get to listen to Jimmy watching this week’s episode in real time. Pobody’s nerfect! Listen in as we discuss an episode in which Mai continues to be the only competent one in the room, Little Yugi forgets what cards done do, and Big Yugi does it again! Witness the return of

Surprise! We’re back, and we’re bringing you what you’ve all been waiting for: some juicy, juicy fan-fiction. We asked for it, you wrote it, and now Tyler’s going to subject Jimmy to it. This episode of Fan-Fiction comes to us from friend of the show Garrett! It gets real meta. We’ll be back next week with our first real episode in over a month!

Heads up, the audio on this one is fun and interesting! Tyler’s flat doesn’t have wifi yet, AND his primary microphone gave up the ghost, so we’re trying something very, very different this week. Listen in as we discuss repeated words repeating words, Mai’s continued competence, and Little Yugi’s inner struggle against Big Yugi. Plus, a seasonally-appropriate card of the week! Will we ever figure out our audio issues? Will Yugi let Big Yugi play the children’s card game? What does Joey need the

If you thought we struggled with recalling episodes we had just watched, just wait until Tyler tries to remember this episode he watched a week ago! This week, we’re back into the original series for some green-haired Kaiba goodness. Also, it was said as a joke at first, but we’re serious: Send us your Yu-Gi-Oh! fan-fiction! We’re still figuring out how we’re going to be recording with an ocean between us, so we may be slim on episodes coming up. If you send us a fan-fiction that you’ve written,

Apologies for the week we missed! As we mention in the episode, Jimmy has been in Australia, and Tyler has been in England this week, going through hell trying to let a flat. But we’re back! This episode was recorded just over a week ago, before any of that happened, and it’s a doozy. Listen in as we discuss an actually good plot-heavy episode, wherein Tea and Mai are the only competent people. No, seriously, all of the guys are idiots this episode, it’s objective fact.

Coming to you live from a six-year-old’s bedroom, we finally found an appropriate setting to talk about this children’s card game TV show. Listen in as we read messages from our listeners, discuss another duel-heavy (but blessfully Pegasus-centric) episode, and introduce our new favorite characters: Funny Bunny and Ruff Gruff McDogg!

Listen to us spend far too much time trying to remember the word “Artificer”, constantly get Pegasus and Kaiba’s names mixed up, and marvel at precisely how on-brand Pegasus’s decor really is. Later, we talk about what the opposite of a bottomless pit is, Pegasus’s staff naming scheme, and what kind of gimmick… gimmick gimmick puppet puppet egg egg head gimmick puppet egg head gimmick puppet egg head gimmick puppet egg

Finally! Amidst a sea of multi-part, plot-laden episodes, our hard work and perseverance is rewarded with a duel-heavy episode in which not much happens. Listen in as Jimmy recaps our first all-female duel, Tyler forgets what jokes are, we do some live foley work, and learn the hard way that the rules of Duel Monsters really are just made up on the spot.

Then, we get into discussing the final part of the duel between Kaiba and Yugi. Things get... surprisingly metal, and emotional? We talk mammoth chest-bursters, fusing zombies to non-zombies, infinite versions of tiny creatures, and brand new strategies that we're convinced Yugi pulled out of his ass. Later, we wax poetic about Link, the Hero of Time, and

Well, they can't all be winners. Six months into making a show about a show about a card game, we discover that the worst part about the show actually is the card game. Join us as we dissect an episode so boring, even its official synopsis is only two sentences. We talk about winning at Stardew Valley, good anime, more things to do with a library card, and the extra-terrestrial origins of our card of the week.

Sadly, this one stars neither John Travolta nor Nicholas Cage, but we'll muddle through somehow. Join us in media res as we talk about Tyler's weird mouth sounds, our favorite non-Yu-Gi-Oh pastimes, Jimmy's new podcast, and an actually decent episode.

Listen as Pepper licks everything, Jimmy takes a phone call, and Tyler questions the logic of... well, everything. Did any of the Paradox Brothers' riddles even matter?

Never fear, Jimmy showed Tyler the first episode of the original 1998 run of Yu-Gi-Oh! and we're here to talk about it. And boy do we have feelings.

We also discuss video games, Tyler and Lauren and Pepper's Big Move, LEGO sex acts (yep, that happened), and a narrative structure that will have you reaching for "Memento" in search of something more straightforward.
