  Galaxy High School (1986)

  Aug 18, 202655 minS1

  It’s back-to-school season… unless you’re listening on the Club Feed, in which case, Happy St. Patrick’s Day! On this episode, we resurrect Saturday Morning Crunch at the request of a longtime podcast pal, Eric Alex, who also joins us as co-host! Eric was talking games with Kyle VonKubik and John E. Capcom all the way back in 2009, and we’re thrilled to have him back on the mic. This time, we’re diving into the criminally underrated and under-discussed 1986 cartoon Galaxy High School , a show that had all the right pieces but ultimately never found its audience. Join us as we explore this short-lived animated series, its potential influences, and its surprising connections to tabletop role-playing games.

  Join Kyle Von Kubik, John E. Capcom, and Peter Graphic as they crack open a can of spinach and punch their way through Popeye (1990) and Popeye 2 (1991) for the Nintendo Game Boy.

  Episode #27

  Retro Game Challenge 1 & 2 (2009)

  Jul 21, 20261h 7mS1

  On this episode of ONE RAD PODCAST , Kyle VonKubik and John E Capcom take on Retro Game Challenge 1 and 2 from 2009, a pair of games built around a lovingly idealized version of late 80s and early 90s childhood gaming. From made up retro titles to in game magazines and cheat codes, these games do not just recreate the past, they remix it into something a little too perfect. Kyle and John unpack what feels authentic, what feels exaggerated, and why that version of growing up still hits so hard, even if it may not have been quite this perfect the first time around.

  Episode #26

  Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom (2018) & Super Adventure Island II (1994)

  Jul 7, 20261h 10mS1

  On this episode of ONE RAD PODCAST , Kyle VonKubik and John E Capcom tackle two games with roots in the Wonder Boy family tree: Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom (2018) and Super Adventure Island II (1994). One is colorful and polished, the other is weird and surprisingly ambitious, and both give the guys plenty to talk about. They compare notes on gameplay, trace their shared DNA, and inevitably get pulled back into their ongoing argument about the term "Metroidvania." History, hot takes, and at least one unnecessary semantic debate included at no extra charge! ONE RAD PODCAST is made possible by the members of ⁠⁠ONE RAD CLUB⁠⁠ .

  Civilization (1991)

  Jun 23, 202651 minS1

  This week, John E. Capcom and Kyle Von Kubik talk Civilization (1991), with a focus on the KOEI-published Super Nintendo / Super Famicom version. We discuss the mysteries of The Wheel, rewriting history, and the very real danger of Gandhi getting the bomb. It is all about exploring, expanding, exploiting, and exterminating like a genetic freak with a 144 and 2/3 precent chance of global domination. Holla if you hear us!
