July 13, 2020 by Neoplasmic in Free For All, Movies, Podcast, RPC Movies, RPC Podcast Network, Video Games

Hello once again, ladies and gents! Your friendly neighborhood EIC Neoplasmic here! This is a very special episode of RPC’s Free For All podcast which was recorded over a month ago on June 7, 2020 featuring Mike (Captain Kaye), Kristal (Kay-Rah), Josh (The Director), Jacob (the Streamin’ Demon), myself, and our newest co-host, Hayden (Lord Hades). Topics included Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of Ready Player One, the rise and fall of Ernest Cline, the author of Armada and the aforementioned book upon which Spielberg’s film was based, along with a cornucopia of random thoughts about musical biopics and laughter. Yes, friends, this is the lost episode of FFA, and it’s one that I personally think is very special and unique! Please enjoy!

In our first Multimedia Combo discussion (or Multi-Combo, for short), the 4 Among Us are joined by Jacob from the Streaming Wars podcast to discuss some of our favorite movies and the moments that made them memorable, like the “Martha” scene in Batman v Superman. I’m being facetious about it being our favorite moment, of course. We also talk a little bit about Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 remake, and the most horrifying sequence in the Legend of Zelda series. It’s a packed, random discussion in this episode, Renegades! Enjoy the Free For All!
