Men Of Low Moral Fiber

Aaaaaand we're back! Sorry for the delay there but we have two episodes coming your way this month to make up for it. This one's all about the modern forest fable Beacon Pines. As usual, we all have very different opinions on the game, which is just the hot goss you listen for every month. Hope you enjoy this episode!  Corrigan, Ben, and Jason start out with a lot of nonsense, and by nonsense I mean what Jason's been up to for the past few weeks, then they get into the actual game of Beacon Pines (28:15). After a loooooong gameplay chat they get into a classic round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (1:04:15), take a trip to the ol' Recommendation Station (1:35:30) and that really turns into a whole thing before they finally get into the future landscape of upcoming MOLMF games on the way (2:09:45).   Well that was an epic show. Look forward to our game on Tunic, coming very soon! As always, we really appreciate you listening to the show! If you enjoyed this episode please go rate and review it on iTune

The gang got together and played Disco Elysium this month and WOW. What a game it was. Corrigan took the month off and subbed in her partner, Kyo Edmoundson, and it was great getting his thoughts on the game. Hope you enjoy this meandering conversation where covered just about everything in this 2-hour episode and it still felt like we barely scratched the surface of this super-detailed and mega-dense game. Enjoy! We start off with some intros and big idea stuff then finally set up the game and setting (19:40) before getting into the development and more recent company news (29:10). After that we dive deeper into the gameplay with a few spoilers eventually (43:00 ish) before playing a resounding round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (1:24:45). Then we take a visit to the Recommendation Station (1:45:50) and pick next mont's game at the VERY end of the pod. Whew! What an episode. Thanks again to Kyo for joining us!   Thanks again for listening to the show! If you enjoyed this episode please go rate and

It's finally here!! We did it. After years and years, we finally get to go back to our titular flagship and most MOLMFian universe in the latest Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman nostalgiathon: Return To Monkey Island. Enjoy.  Some obligatory shenanigans to start things off then the gang gets into the gameplay (16:15) and eventually get around to WTDWTS (1:02:30). They talk about What Else They've Been Playing...which still needs a musical bump (1:14:45), and visit the Recommendation Station (1:18:15) before peacing out until our HOLIDAY EPISODE.

Our Spookilogy is complete! I know, I know, we're a month past Halloween, that didn't stop us from playing three scary games. This third one is a doozie too! Soma comes to us from the makers of Amnesia and Penumbra, and also comes to us from our good FOLMF Dr. Wendi Sierra noted scholar, game developer, writer, and big ol' fan of Soma. Thanks again for coming on the pod Wendi! We start off talking big ideas, then get into spoilers after (11:30), then we dive into the lore a bit (43:20), and finally get into the main reason behind everything: Are we living in a simulation? (55:30) Next month: Return to Monkey Island!!! Okay...actually only a week or so away. Can't wait to talk to the gang about this one b/c it's magnificent. Get on it! And like always, if you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review it in iTunes or wherever else you're listening to it or better yet go tell a nerdy friend who might just like it.

Happy Halloween! Here's the second of three games of our MOLMFoween Spooktacular Trifectathon!!!  But seriously Inscryption is the greatest game ever and yes Ben is writing this and it doesn't matter what Jason and Corri think about Inscryption because it's amazing and one of the best games I've ever played and I can't stop playing it and if they ever stop then they probably didn't even really get it anyway. Whew! What are you still doing here? Go play Inscryption! NOW! IT'S AMAZING! The gang gets into this crazy creepy card game and stave off spoilers for awhile, but eventually things take a turn for the worse and all of them get eaten by the spoiler monster (28:30). After that the Drinkensong enhabits their corpses and sings a few drunken tunes and they talk about what else has been possessing them as of late (1:09:45), before taking a long and dangerous ride to the Recommendation Station (1:18:00)...then they talk about our next game: SOMA!!! Which will be out very soon. And is also creepy af. Can't wait.

Welcome to the first of our THREE Halloween episodes coming at you the next few weeks! Cult Of The Lamb, then Inscryption, followed by SOMA. So get on it. Play along with us! Looking forward to three spooky games in a row coming your way soon! Okay, enough jibber jabber about a bunch of games. This month we're bringing you ONE GAME: Cult Of The Lamb. And boy, what a game it was. And yes...eventually we talk about other games, but we all played this game and it was grand. Check it out... After the intro we talk about COTL for a loooong time, then compare it to drinks and songs (58:30), and of course talk about what else we've been playing (1:06:45). After that, Jason brings on his kiddos for a little Kids Of Low Moral Fiber segment (1:12:15) and then we take a little trip to the Recommendation Station (1:19:30), and then we talk about what the next few episodes will look like.  As always, thanks for listening our podcast!

Jason and Ben are back for this Side Quest and they're diving deeeeeep into the Lands Between and sharing their triumphs, failures, resurrections, and pure joyful moments playing the now legendary game that is Elden Ring. They start off with some big ideas, then get specifically into Ben's experience finally taking the plunge after months of Jason telling him to play (10:40), then go back and forth talking about the highs and lows of their combined 300+ hrs of gameplay (25:00), before devolving into just quoting random lines of dialogue from their favorite NPCs and their favorite and very nerdy, yet still glorious co-op moments. Hope you enjoy the listen, even if you haven't played this epically long, yet amazing game.  The gang will be back in a few weeks talking all about what else they've been playing, with a special spotlight on a game all 3 of them played: Cult of the Lamb. Damn that game is fun...and addicting. Be careful out there! And of course, you can always find us at the following places: Website

We're back again with our new podcast style: a giant jumble of what we've been playing! Huzzah! Hopefully this little table of contents will help you if you're looking for something specific.  After chatting about some of the changes, the gang gets into what Corri's been up to this month - mostly Pyschonauts 2 (16:00). Then Jason gets into his month of games, which included Calico (35:30), Hitman 3 (39:45), and Inventory Hero (53:45) before Ben gets into what else he's been playing, such as Stray (56:00) and Elden Ring (57:30). They also chat about Neon White (1:04:33), Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (1:07:15), and Nope (1:11:40). As always, thanks for listening our podcast!

We have kind of a different episode for you this month. Instead of playing ONE game, the gang gets together and talks about ALL the games they've been enamored with as of late. And instead of one game getting a drink and a song, each one of us tried to summarize our entire month's journey into a drink and a song. Hope you enjoy! Jason starts things off (8:45), then it's Corrigan's turn (34:30), and finally Ben finishes off the month summaries (51:15), and we end by chatting about next month's game (1:10:30).  Thanks again for listening!

We're back this month with a Side Quest episode betwixt two "normal" episodes...but honestly this is functionally just a normal episode with two caveats: The normal Men Of Low Moral Fiber have been replaced by our lovely guest, with just as much and/or more levels of Moral Fiber. John LaTour joins Corrigan to talk about their latest obsession: Death's Door. They even get into the development and gameplay, and play a whole round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" too. It really is a great, thorough, delightful romp of a Side Quest. Enjoy! Thanks again for listening!

There's games that have crafting, then there are crafting games, and this one my friends is a crafting game. Much of enjoyable, plenty of laughs and good times, but MAN. There was some crafting to be done! And thanks again to our very first POLMF: David Botluk. Pleasure having him on the show and I'm sure he'll back again soon. Thanks for joining us! Hope you enjoy the pod! After some introductory banter, we get into the development (11:00) and eventually that bleeds into the gameplay (16:00). Then we get into Ben's Big Three Preguntas (27:30) and of course a delicious round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (59:00). After a quick (hahaha) Recommendation Station (1:14:00), and a Developer Spotlight (1:37:00), we get into a little MOLMF In The News (1:42:15) and chat about Next Month's Game (1:45:30)...sorta.  And of course thank you so much for listening!

This game was....hard. Very, very difficult. But man was it rewarding when it was fun. And pretty. We dove DEEEEEP into the Deepnest of this game and hope you were able to play it along with us. Give it a listen and enjoy our conversation that somewhat involves this fantastic indie game... We chit chat for a few, then get into the making of the game (7:45), then chat about the many influences of the game (18:00).  Also we recorded a delightful little lore explainer (31:00), then get onto each of our experiences with actually playing the game after that (43:00). Eventually we get to "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (1:14:15), Recommendation Station (1:33:45), MOLMF In The News (1:45:45), and at some point in there we chat about next month's game, which (spoiler) I've already played and it's super freaking fun!  As always, thanks for listening!

Man oh man this game was surprisingly TERRIFYING. Just wow. If you were lucky enough to play the original Outer Wilds back when we covered it in 2019, then you were probably just as excited to get back to this universe and boy did it deliver. Wow. It's an amazing game, but also a liiiittle scary. So get your big boy pants on and join us as we dive deeeeeeep into the DLC Echoes Of The Eye with our great FOLMF, Tyler Weaver... We start off just chatting development and early gameplay stuff before getting into the lore a bit (20:15), then we hit the spoilers HARD (25:45). We finally get into the gameplay (42:30) before playing a delicious round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (53:15). We say goodbye to Tyler and have a lovely visit to the Recommendation Station (1:02:00), a very enjoyable Developer Spotlight (1:16:30), and end with talking about next month's game (1:18:45). Beware...it's a HARD GAME. Enjoy! Thanks again for listening! If you enjoyed this episode please go rate and review it on iTunes o

Usually when Jason suggest a game, Corri and Ben roll their eyes and grumble. Well that's what happened here too...but then they played Hades and TOTALLY CHANGED THEIR MINDS!!! Man this game is dope. Ben and Corri each put 80+ hours into it this month and wow. What a game. Hope you get a chance to play it, even if you've never played a rogue-like before (like 2/3 of us). Great story, fun gameplay, addictive setup all around. Check it out!  We start out checking in, then get into the development and making-of (6:30), then dive deeeeep into the gameplay after that (17:30). We chat about our favorite builds (31:45), our favorite characters (43:30), and Jason gives us an education in Rogues and Rogue-likes (58:00). Eventually we meaner on down to the discopub for some "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (1:12:15), and visit the Recommendation Station (1:22:00). After that we have our Dev Spotlight (1:37:15) and a lengthy segment of MOLMF! In The News! (1:39:18). And of course we end things talking about next mo

We did it! Another year! Huzzaaahhhh!!!! And we couldn't have done it with you, dear listener. Or at least, it would've been a lot more boring. Join us as we celebrate the holidays and look back on another great year in the MOLMFiverse.  And even though it's our longest episode ever (EVER!), feel free to skip all the awards and suggestions and jump straight to the blooper reel and funnies (2:00:00).

Another day, another sequel! That's right, we're back and talking about one of our most favoritest franchises ever: PYSCHONAUTS!!! This time, the recently-released sequel aptly entitled: Psychonauts 2! After some intro-ing we get into the development (7:00) then seamlessly slide right into the gameplay (13:00). Eventually we get into a classic round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" but somehow do it backwards...? (37:45). Dev spotlight after that (1:02:30) and we end things talking about next NEXT month's game that Corrigan got to pick (1:07:45). That's it for now. Thanks again for another great seasons of MOLMF!

As long as we've been playing video games, we've been playing sports video games. From NHL '94 and NBA JAM to NFL Blitz and FIFA, we love the challenging, fun, and social nature of these games. So we figured, let's do a whole ep focused on just that. It's a little bit of a turn from our usual pointy, clicky adventures, but we figured if we enjoy these games, we might have a few listeners who do too. One of those listeners is our dear FOLMF, Brent Peterson, who joined us again this week to chat about his experience in sporting games.

Happy Halloweeeeen!!! Hope you had your fill of candy and were also able to play Little Nightmares 2 this month. If not, give it a go now. It's sure to keep the creep factor going for a little while long.  We meandered through the intro and development and eventually arrive at the gameplay section (14:00), then we play some "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (47:00), and talk about some of our favorite spooky game moments (59:40). Then we take a trip to the Recommendation Station (1:16:45), Developer Spotlight (1:22:45), and talk about next month's game (1:25:30).  Thanks for listening!

We're pushing back our Halloween game a few week so we can get our latest obsession onto the pod: DEATHLOOOOOP! Definitely enjoying this latest hit from Arkane, so hopefully you get a chance to play it for a bit.  After the intros, Jason lead us through development (7:15), before we get into a LOT of the gameplay (19:30), and finally get deeeep into spoilers (1:10:30). Of course we play "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (1:19:15), take a stop at the Recommendation Station (1:33:00) and Developer Spotlight (1:39:30). Again, we're playing Little Nightmares 2 and will try to get it released before Halloween for ya!  Thanks again for listening!
