The guys take a trip through time discussing one of the best JRPG’s available in the 90s, Chrono Trigger! Caleb takes the hosting reins this week and leads a deep dive into this Square classic. We cover everything from the team that created the game to full plot spoilers, so if you haven’t played it yet go pick up the DS version (or less recommended iOS version) and come back to join the conversation when you beat it.
 
To wrap the show, Colin goes double or nothing in our weekly Cryptogeekology trivia. Will it pay off?

The Geeksquatch squad doesn’t waste any time jumping onto one of the biggest culture phenomena of 80’s and 90’s, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Alex hosts as he exposes his love for the franchise and delves into the unhealthy amount of knowledge he’s acquired about the heros in a half shell. The guys cover everything from the origins as an anti-comic book created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird to the swell of video games and movies that were spawned. And yes, we even talk a little bit about Vanilla Ice.
 
Finally, Cryptogeekology closes out the show as Caleb begins to flex is geek brain muscle. Kurt Russell may or may not be referenced a few times.
