Left Trigger Right Trigger

Join us every other week as we convene the 'video game book club.' Each episode is structured around a topic: anything from 'Trust' to 'Robots' to 'Body Parts'. Listen in as your hosts each bring a game to the table that they think exemplifies that topic in some way. Give us a shot and remember, games are just metaphors.

Welcome to the official launch of season two of Left Trigger Right Trigger! We're cranking the drama up to eleven! Friends become enemies! Enemies become lovers! Acquaintances become... well actually they mostly stay the same. Listen in as the podcast you know and love breaks under the pressure of this episode's topic: "Competition." Colin attempts to explain how Smogon University works. Dave struggles with the anxiety of constantly comparing himself to other gamers. Greg makes a horrifying metaphor about the growing e-sports scene. Giovanni tries (and mostly fails) to lift everyone's spirits. We're only 30 brutal beheadings away from being the podcast equivalent of Game of Thrones. Give us a listen, won't you?

Here's a little side competition: whoever writes us the best review on iTunes will win Dave. You can just have him. Imagine that... a Dave of one's own. Also, don't forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter (@LTRTcast) We'd love to hear from you. 
 
Games discussed include Pokémon X and Y, Destiny, Overwatch, and Super Monkey Ball.
 
Revolution 0
Jul 4, 2017
After last episode's bombshell announcement, we decided to follow up with a theme that involves actual bombs! Revolution is the topic at hand. Whether that means Dance Dancing yourself to fitness or pursuing prisoner 24601 until you jump off a bridge (for whatever reason) we've got all the game discussion you need for this independence day. You know what they say: If we can't [play video games] it's not our revolution! Give us a listen and Happy Independence Day to our listeners who celebrate that sort of thing.
 
Have you done your patriotic duty and reviewed us on iTunes? It'll help us grow and continue to improve the show. And don't forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter at @LTRTCast. Let us know what you think, won't you?
 
Games discussed include Little Big Planet 2, Beyond Good and Evil, Freedom Fighters, and All I want is for all of my friends to become insanely powerful
