SUPER GHOST

This week we're discussing some very important shit like: Lenny Kravitz's Laffy-Taffy shaped dong, what makes a game a Soulslike, how Aaron can't take anything seriously, games that begin with "H", and possibly making a choose-your-adventure game on the Super Ghost website.

The year is 2025 - Aaron is the last remaining survivor of the SUPER GHOST crew after Gerry, Beth, and Greg were taken out by robo-Young Sheldons. With the help of Dre, Steve, Darren, and the Carrie Underwood fanbase, Aaron will lead a mighty resistance to reclaim earth. But mostly we'll talk about candy bars, Vin Diesel movies, and gaming magazines.

🫠 CREDITS

Gerry is GONE, so Aaron, Beth, and Greg took this opportunity to chat about Pokemon, Digimon, Juggalos, and any other type of collectible critter under the sun! We must defend our precious baby boy, Calumon, at all costs.

The gang (minus Greg) has done their time in Horny Jail and have frantically clawed their way back to their mics to discuss a big ol' cornucopia of topics, like playing The Sims for 12 hours straight, making Lyme Disease sexy again, and how Beth still hasn't watched JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. BOO BETH. BOO HER.

🫠 CREDITS

Welcome to the very first episode of the new show (which is also the old shows) Super Ghost! Join Gerry, Aaron, Beth, and Greg as they chat about what games they've been playing and how great but not great Switch 2 is, all with a little Peak and Digimon sprinkled on the top.
