  • Slop Til You Drop: Shovelware, Clones and Cash Grabs

    Slop Til You Drop: Shovelware, Clones and Cash Grabs
    Jul 1 2026
    In this week's episode, the Boys scrape up the fetid sludge from the bottom of the barrel to see what absolute slop they can find. From clones to cash grabs, smut to even smuttier smut, they've braved the worst so you don't have to. But, much like their mudlarking counterparts, they've managed to find a few glistening trinkets amongst the detritus. Elsewhere, the new Patreon Age of Empires playalong has begun, with one of the Boys being left out in the cold. Pierre's been going deep simulation on his favourite WWII game, Glenn's experienced the worst day in Australia that you can imagine and Sarah's been suffering from a bout of morality caused by our future Player 4 guest, Alasdair Beckett-King.

  • The Prediction Game: Half-Time Report

    The Prediction Game: Half-Time Report
    Jun 24 2026
    Cast your minds back to the start of the year, in the dank, dark depths of winter, when our intrepid hosts, full of hope and joy, set out their stalls with their most hotly anticipated games of the year and risked it all to be crowned Best Boy 2026. Fast forward to late June: sweltering heat, the world in a state of turmoil, the perfect time to check in on how they're getting on. What are their scores so far? Any delays? Has Novellie's Curse struck again? The Boys will have a chance to change course by swapping out a game, but will they waver? But before that, we catch up with Pierre's honeymoon in the Land of the Rising Sun, Sarah's gnarly experience with game customisation and Glenn's HD-2D adventures.

  • The Last of Us: A Button Boys Special

    The Last of Us: A Button Boys Special
    Jun 17 2026
    With Pierre off in Japan and Sarah still salty about their recent loss over on Patreon, we decided to dedicate a whole episode to The Last of Us games. And who better to join us than the award-winning journalist, author, host of My Perfect Console and friend of the show, Simon 'Podcast' Parkin. Simon edited the recently announced Look for the Light: The Last of Us Anthology, which contains interviews, essays and critical dispatches. While putting it together he caught up with Neil Druckmann himself to reflect on the making of the games and their cultural impact. We'll also catch up with what they've been playing, with World Cup mashups, addictive dice games and real-life robberies, and Simon reveals his dream podcast guest (excluding the Button Boys of course).
