In this brand new episode of our show we got into the Halo talk as well as covering what else we all liked from Microsoft's recent showcase of games. We also get into Ooblets, Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us Part II, and Final Fantasy.

It's been a while, but we're back to talk to you about the games consuming our lives, as well as digest some of the announcements from Sony & PC Gaming (the Pokémon news was announced after our recording).    Join our Discord! https://discord.gg/tgZmvhx   iTunes link:  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-permadeath-podcast/id847872182   Stitcher Radio Link: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-permadeath-podcast?refid=stpr    Official Twitter: https://twitter.com/permapodcast   HOSTS:   Twitter:  https://twitter.com/PepperedHam  https://twitter.com/YokuramaTalks  https://twitter.com/BizarreJelly5  https://twitter.com/ryankubo  https://twitter.com/kinross07   Twitch  https://twitch.tv/pepperedham  https://twitch.tv/ylisseanebbie  https://twitch.tv/kinross07  

Hello and welcome back to another episode of A Cup of Nepenthe, where I am once again joined by Cam (http://twitter.com/croverload) where we talk about boredom, a little bit, I suppose, but to be honest, this is mostly a podcast of tangents, and more D&D talk. Don't forget to check out some artists in the UK using the hashtag #MCMLDNonline because there is some real cool stuff out there!   Here are some links to things we talked about:   Shenmue 3 Soundtrack - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVq_2WvjFoSBzrMIV3fioB3XcAhqsuC9n   Fire Emblem Awakening Soundtrack - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhHcMbVmbwCcunO_gscOGURPgAoHUHS3z  FFXV Soundtrack- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRtkK6TD_2LKJMxXGRJV4BCyXBkyzvd9U   Captain Tom Moore has raised £32 million for the NHS will be knighted https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-52735192

Hello, and welcome to this episode of A Cup of Nepenthe where the cast of Permadeath Podcast reunite so that we can go on a lot of tangents about video games, but also talk about the things that make us feel cosy.

Hello and welcome to the fourth episode of A Cup of Nepenthe! This week I'm joined by Cam (http://twitter.com/croverload) as we navigate the tricky world of anxiety in quarantine.

Hello, hello! It's that time of the week again for another podcast and this time I am joined by the wonderful Emily (http://twitter.com/eyyybros) to talk about creativity and how to keep yourself accountable but also motivated.

We're into another week of the lockdown, and therefore, it's time for another podcast! This week, I am joined by none other than Shenmue Master, Bill (http://twitter.com/pepperedham) to talk about what we're looking forward to doing once life goes back to (somewhat) normal. As expected, we talk about food. Free things to do! Playstation Play At Home Initiative: https://blog.us.playstation.com/2020/... Free colouring pages for you to download and print by streamer DanMakesHisMark: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/fo... Not mentioned during the podcast, but I also found another digital colouring book that was made through a collaboration of around 30 creative streamers on Twitch, and it's just really nice. https://twitter.com/JulieOkahara/stat... Here are the links for some songs, as chosen by Bill. It will make him feel better if you listen to them and tell him how good you think they are, I'm sure.

You can find his JustGiving campaign here, and if you're able, please share this around: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraisin... Stay safe, and stay sane everyone. And stay the heck home if you can.

Today marks the third week of lockdown in the UK, and we're bringing you a podcast to talk about life in self-isolation, and things that might bring a little bit of joy to your week. This week I am joined by Kinross (http://twitter.com/Kinross07) and Cam (http://twitter.com/Croverload) as we talk about goals during self-isolation, and how to not put too much pressure on yourself. We also talk about cool businesses doing cool things, some good music to bring some happiness when you need it, and some good news that has little to do with the ongoing situation.  The wonderful art of Nepenthe is by Emily, who you can find here: http://twitter.com/eyyybros  Links for everything are here~!    Ohio Dept of Health Ping Pong Ball Video: https://twitter.com/OHdeptofhealth/st...  How to play D&D Over Discord: https://slyflourish.com/playing_dnd_o...  D&D Beyond's list of free adventures!: https://www.dndbeyond.com/quarantine  DNDice's #Nat20Beats19 Campaign to raise money for PPE for the NHS: https://dndice.co.uk/products/dice4masks  Gametee giving away their entire stock of bandanas for customers to use as makeshift masks (currently out of stock, but keep an eye out!) https://gametee.co.uk Since uploading, the Babymetal concerts have been made private.

In lieu of individual GOTY videos this year, we gathered together and discussed some of our favourite games, lovingly packaged into our own brand of award show categories. Do you have suggestions for 2020 categories? Or perhaps you have your own choices that weren't covered by us here? Either way let us know in the comments down below, and we look forward to doing this again next year.

Welcome to the first instalment of our (what will be) yearly gaming quiz, created and hosted by our very own Ebbie as she pits Bill and Kinross against each other as they fight for the right to call themselves "2019's Most Knowledgeable Gamer".

Welcome back to the beefy version of weekly, where it's actually monthly and we don't talk about news, we talk about games. So, not like weekly at all. ANYWAY, this month we talk about Days Gone, reminisce on our time in the wild west of Red Dead Redemption 2, get poisoned in Sekiro, and Kinross tries to sum up his Kingdom Hearts feelings. All this and so much more await in this month's episode.
