Early on in this week's show, Ninja says the prophetic words, "Our video game and anime podcast has turned into a film and superhero podcast." The comment shows just how much the wheels flew off of the thing. Regular listeners expect the girls to trail off into the movie world, but they take it to an extreme this time when they spent most of the first 45 minutes on DC and Marvel movies. Finally, however, they do manage to spend some quality time talking about video games. Politics even rears its ugly head, as evidenced by the title of this […] The post ESH Cast #601: The best way to avoid talking about current events is to take a knee appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

A classic from the 1990s returns. That's what we learned from the recent PAX West conference. The Sistahs weren't there, but they sure wish they were. Ninja and Panda had bigger fish to fry this week. This week's show represents the 600th podcast in the series and they wanted to both be on hand for the festivities. Of course, there were no festivities to be had. Everybody else was over at PAX West. Although their anniversary shows usually feature a guest, there were simply none to be had. As a result, you have a very special episode of the ESH […] The post ESH Cast #600: Tonight my streets are gonna rage like it’s 1992 appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

Just count this week's podcast title as a guide to go by. You don't really want to live with anybody who acts in such a binary way. This topic came up as part of Panda's review of the Angels of Death anime, which is an adaptation of a video game of the same name. And, although having such a boyfriend might sound exciting at first, you probably will get tired of continually having to watch your back. You shouldn't have to do that around a loved one. In this week's show, Ninja also discusses Germany's big Gamescon show, which she […] The post ESH Cast #599: You don’t want a love-me-or-die boyfriend appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

As the Sistahs determine in this week's podcast, your gamer cred is not measured by the number of consoles that are gathering dust in your closet. Your gamer cred is not the number of Xbox 360 boxes you have displayed on your wall. Your gamer cred is not your Xbox Gold card. Your gamer cred is not the number of Mario T-shirts you've accrued. Your gamer cred is not how cool your gamertag name is. Your gamer cred is not how many E3 conferences you've attended. Your gamer cred is not the signature you got of Mark Septic Eye. Your […] The post ESH Cast #598: Your gamer cred should be in your fingers, not up on the wall appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

We don't always follow the party line with what we say. Anybody who has listened to us for even a few episodes could tell you that. There's no telling what we may say next. Our producer could tell you. He has had to bleep us out on more than one occasion when we have said something we shouldn't, and there are plenty of times he has had to scold us for giving our opinions on subjects, but made them sound like facts. We apologize for that. We understand that it's appropriate to say the word "alleged" when we talk about […] The post ESH Cast #597: If it’s not inappropriate, it’s not from us appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

This week's show goes into a lot of areas the Sistahs haven't explored much in the past, including the mysterious world of computer programming. Computer programming? That's right. Pandalicious sticks her big toe right in the middle of the world of computer programming through the game Human Resource Machine. If that doesn't sound like much of a game to you, you would be wrong. The game is chock full of puzzles to solve and, along the way, you'll learn a number of computer programming concepts you might try to use later in normal computer programming languages. If you think that […] The post ESH Cast #596: I got no jam — but have you seen my jelly? appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

Pandalicious has her opinions, and she makes sure everyone is aware of them. One of her strong opinions this week is about a video game she has been playing called Octopath Traveler. She is more than 45 hours into the game, and she expects to play at least 100 more before she is finished. But there is one thing about the game that she is clearly not enamored with. Her computerized players just don't seem friendly enough with her or each other. There's no banter between them. There's no small talk. They travel from one place to the next in […] The post ESH Cast #595: Panda wants her computer players to be better friends with each other appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

The Sistahs rarely veer away from the general topics of video games and anime, but with their recent two-week vacation from the show, they've been energized to bring you some different topics this time. Along the way, they do manage to talk about Ninja's progress on the latest version of the Destiny 2 game, and Panda talks about the genesis of one of her favorite games, Resident Evil. In any case, agree or disagree with them, they manage to stay entertaining. Please give a listen to ESH Cast #594: Where do the Tweets go to die? They don’t. http://www.electricsistahood.com/podcast/ep_594.mp3 We […] The post ESH Cast #594: Where do the Tweets go to die? They don’t appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

The dog days of summer have struck hard, and we've got so much extra-curricular stuff going on that we're taking a few weeks off. So we're forwarding a fun clip show to you for this week. We hope it holds you for a couple of weeks. This show is a special one, in a category we call "Save it for the show." It contains interesting and, we hope, funny bits that occur as we prepare to start a show, as well as the things that go on after we finish recording a show. Our producer informs us that some of […] The post ESH Cast #593: We know where the line is now appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

It's the simplest title we've ever chosen in more than 11 years, but it's a subject that just might make you wince. Sure, in the past, we've discussed incest on more than one occasion. We've even talked about a game that makes you have sexual relations with birds. At least birds are organic. The same can't be said about kitchen appliances. I guess we can say it this way -- if you're mechanophilia-curious, by all means listen to this one. We just want to warn away the young and/or squeamish. That game's called Kitsune Kitchen and is currently available on […] The post ESH Cast #592: Romancing the scone appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.
