Due to the mortgage crisis and impending legislation, The Rumble Pack crew starts off the episode with insightful economic analysis…or not. After that, Tom awards WipEout HD the gold, Kaz drops bombs in BattleField: Bad Company, Tony revisits his childhood in Kirby Super Star Ultra, and Justin defends WarioLand Shake It from a misguided Retronaut.
After the break, the Pack casually discusses some of the bigger stories of the week. “Have you heard about”: Bungie’s mysterious announcement, Zach Snyder’s EA deal, or the rumors of a new DS? Wait, you have? Well, at least stick around for extended reminiscing of retired soft drinks like Fruitopia and Pitch Black II. Now accepting applicants for Tom and Tony’s Mountain Brewery!
This podcast is a celebration of the social aspects of gaming. We were “smash brothers” long before we became the ‘Pack, and we continue to game with each other on a regular basis. If you look beyond all of the media sensationalism and message board wankery, you’ll discover that video games can help form bonds that will last forever. We’re living proof of that – we’re not jaded journalists (not yet, at least), we’re not tournament players and we’re certainly not fanboys. We’re just folks who love to play and discuss games with each other, and we hope to extend this friendship to our listeners with every installment. 
Justin would like to make it clear that he does not condone calling Nancy Pelosi “a bitch.”
