“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

Who you gonna call? Why, Drew Mollo (from the Splash Pages podcast) that's who!

As a lifelong Ghostbusters super-fan, Drew has spent years memorizing Tobin's Spirit Guide and definitely knows how to read a P.K.E. Meter. A good thing too, because for this episode, we're be spotlighting 8 episodes from this seminal animated series! Expect plenty of Peter, Ray, Egon, Winston as well as a few buckets of slime as we stock up on Ecto-Cooler and get to work.

Later on, we'll read your Retroid answers to this week's Octoponder This question, before Parasite Steve pumps the breaks on the Ecto-1 in front of a class seven DIE MONSTER!

Ep 152: The Last Huckleberry / A Tribute to Val Kilmer 2:44:59

לפני 19 ימים2:44:59

2:44:59

Val Kilmer was an actor's actor. The rare sort of movie star whose focus was always on creating the best performance possible. Even when not the leading man, he through himself into every role, always elevating what had been written on the page into something special. Over the course of an impressive 30 year career, Val was shaped by the Hollywood machine into a bonafied movie star. From lighter fair like Top Secret and Real Genius to performances in Tombstone, The Doors, Willow, Heat and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang... Val proved there was no genre he couldn't master. No character he couldn't make memorable and, perhaps most impressive, wholly his own. His contributions to the film industry are as vast as they are undeniable. Val Kilmer passed away from pneumonia on April 1, 2025 at the age of just 65. For this tribute episode, we discuss 12 of what we consider to be his most important films. ---------------------------------------- Retro Ridoctopus is: • Parasite Steve ( read ) • 8-Bit Alchemy ( listen ) • Coopster Gold ( join ) • Nintenjoe ( subscribe ) ---------------------------------------- All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile…

LIVE FROM (somewhere on the internet) IT'S (a podcast about) SATURDAY NIGHT!!! Saturday Night Live is more than a TV show, it's an American institution. As much a part of our lives as apple pie and cutting people off at intersections. Now in it's 50th season, the show is older than any of the Octo-hosts, but that just means that it's been a staple for our entire lives! For this first part of 2 SNL themed episodes, we are concentrating on the sketches. Each of us picking out 3 of our all time favorites to spotlight and to (ahem) to to reproduce parts of. We had an awesome time with this episode and laughed more than usual! Side note: There was a glitch with Parasite Steve's audio and it does get pretty distracting. We apologize and hope that it doesn't completely ruin the fun. ---------------------------------------- Retro Ridoctopus is: • Parasite Steve ( read ) • 8-Bit Alchemy ( listen ) • Coopster Gold ( join ) • Nintenjoe ( subscribe ) ---------------------------------------- All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile…

Ep 138: Halloween TV Specials 2:45:38

לפני 33 weeks2:45:38

2:45:38

The first of three consecutive Retro Ridoctopus monster-riffic episodes for season 6's month of October! This episode is broken up into two distinct parts. The first covers those made for TV specials that would have us marking our calendars and TV Guides. Sometimes it would be a 25 minutes cartoon, sometimes a made for TV movie, either way, Halloween specials were part and parcel with the holiday when we were growing up. And for the second half of the episode, we shine the candlelight on Halloween episodes of existing TV shows. These were episodes that broke format to inject a little costumed mayhem for the spooky season and we loved them! ---------------------------------------- Retro Ridoctopus is: • Parasite Steve ( read ) • 8-Bit Alchemy ( listen ) • Coopster Gold ( join ) • Nintenjoe ( subscribe ) ---------------------------------------- All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile Send us your feedback online: https://pinecast.com/feedback/retro-ridoctopus/ef45c831-11ca-4d37-aaa5-6cf114b91222…

Ep 137: Unfinished Business / Games We Couldn't Beat 2:05:26

לפני 34 weeks2:05:26

2:05:26

8-Bit Alchemy leads a walk down memory PAIN, as we dredge up all the video games we loved but could never beat. Sometimes this was do to us just never getting good enough, but other times, we have to consider the quality of the games themselves. Were they hard but fair? Or, in the end, were they complete F*@2ing bull$!#?!?!? This is an episode of frustration that ends up being pretty cathartic... but in a fun way! Smacked in the middle is this week's Octoponder This, where we each get to brag about one notoriously difficult game we DID finish. And we end things with Parasite Steve pulling another story from the BOOKSHELF OF THE DAMNED. ---------------------------------------- Retro Ridoctopus is: • Parasite Steve ( read ) • 8-Bit Alchemy ( listen ) • Coopster Gold ( join ) • Nintenjoe ( subscribe ) ---------------------------------------- All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile Send us your feedback online: https://pinecast.com/feedback/retro-ridoctopus/2444a171-3057-4951-aeaf-08f5c4ef02a4…

Ep 135: Battlin' Like a Boss 2 2:09:08

2:09:08

We welcome our buddy Nintenjoe back again to talk about one of the most memorable aspects of any video game, the BOSSES!! Whether they're in charge of a single stage or are the final challenge waiting at the end, these characters are sure to make an impact. We'll tackle the more iconic "last guys" first, spotlighting iconic final bosses who come back again and again over multiple entries of a given series. Later on, we each choose 3 (possibly more obscure) battles that were really memorable to us personally. Thrown in the middle is a musical interlude of an OCTOPONDER, where we'll play your favorite boss battle theme! Overall, this is an episode that video game fans won't want to miss! ---------------------------------------- Retro Ridoctopus is: • Parasite Steve ( read ) • 8-Bit Alchemy ( listen ) • Coopster Gold ( join ) • Nintenjoe ( subscribe ) ---------------------------------------- All original heavy metal music by Enchanted Exile Send us your feedback online: https://pinecast.com/feedback/retro-ridoctopus/08630327-803d-4f75-9e6e-e4041e6f053d…
