It's episode 33! No Clobbers chat though unfortunately. Instead, Ed proves himself to be an insufferable hipster in Dark Souls 2, and Alex hangs around floozies in Mafia: Definitive Edition. Sofie's just taking it all in. News next week!

Okay so you might see this video with the audio muted. Now imagine how the music must sound like. I urge you to unmute and listen to what it's actually like because I guarantee you you're not prepared for it.
Episode 32 has dawned, and despite the game industry's suspicious timing, we have no choice but to talk about the inappropriately glammed up DLSS 5. Also, Sofie tells us about PS5 price gouging and Ed mourns Fortnite layoffs. Games chat next week!

The weekly revolution of Red Barrels continues! It's a dedicated games ep - and after Alex gets all NATOy in Battlefield 6, we move onto the main event: CLOBBERGEDDON. That's right, we've all finished it, so it's time for an Expedition 33 spoilercast!
News next week!

Incredible news comrades! RED BARRELS IS GOING WEEKLY! From now on, we will be splitting the podcast in half, making the games and news sections their own episodes, posted on alternate weeks.

Shinji Mikami's Goof Troop?
Ep 23 is here! The Dead Rise (ing), Stardew Valleys and then the Factors io (kind of ran away from me there). Plus Anthem is maybe preserved, Runescape astonishingly continues and INCREDIBLE GTA VI SECRETS ARE REVEALED! They can't even sue us for this.
New year, new episode! Ep 22 is here with a rubbish terf game, a cool cowboy game, and an unexpectedly sensual Metroid game. Plus, some sad news, and some less sad news: the downfall of Xbox. 2026 is the year of the revolution! But, in like, games.

Ep 21 and it's time to award the most important trophy possible: Most Ideologically Correct Game of the Year 2025! Also we talk about the far less important and far more reactionary Keighleygasm Game Awards.
⬇️
Where's the podcast? Since we're taking Xmas off (sorry) we've delayed the pod to next Monday so that we can span the gap a bit better. Also we can talk about the Game Awards. Also we can issue our own awards! Also, we have Sara from @nogamesforgenocide.com! It'll be a big one!
It's ep 20, and the 1-year anniversary of the podcast! To celebrate we went all-out and had a Friendslop special episode with the incredible @littlebear.bsky.social! We friend! We slop! And we even do the news as usual. Onwards to year two!

Sofie returns! For episode 19! And talks about vampires! And Alex finished Silksong! And Ed's played Stray! And we have solidarity with @gameworkers.co.uk's members being strikebroken at Rockstar! And even more news! Right now!
Sofie's still out due to the plague but Ed and Alex manage a banger episode anyway! The eighteenth one! Ed revives a controversial ending with Mass Effect 3 and Alex roams feudal Japan again with Ghost of Yōtei. Plus news!
It's episode 17 baby! Ed gets obscure with Dark Souls, Alex faces choice paralysis with UFO 50 and Sofie gets a lot off her chest with The Sims. Meanwhile we talk EA getting snagged by the Saudis. Tokyo Game Show, and actually good news about the whole ZA/UM thing?? It's true!
A super-special episode because 1) Sofie's back (thank god) and 2) we've all played Silksong! It's a Silkstravaganza! And after we're all silked out, it's onto the news, with Nintendo chat, loud-shirted knobheads, and some nonsense going on in America. They call it: Episode 16
You join us live from Danny Dyer’s birthday drinks.
We're back, but not all of us! Unfortunately Sofie is off swanning in South Africa, so we've got a duo episode with just Alex and Ed. But when the cat's away, the mice will play - and so we've got a full Nintendo episode about Majora's Mask and DK Bananza! Plus news!
The deep state defeated! Fresh from hospital, the gang are back to discuss Expedition 33, Dave the Diver and to Unleash the Force on us all. PLUS! Another Keighleygasm, and less fun news about censorship and opposition to genocide. The grave failed to claim us!
Where's the new episode? Unfortunately, the deep state rose again and whisked Alex into A&E and trapped him in hospital for a week. He's fine, but also too lazy to record and edit a podcast from a hospital bed. So, a class traitor. Next episode (🤞hopefully!) on 25 Aug as usual!
We're back! Again! And with a dark portent: the 13th episode. In a rebuke to fate itself, we carry on as normal. Ed reminisces about God of War (2005), Sofie talks Animal Crossing and Alex talks for far, far too long about Death Stranding 2, for all you Kojima heads. Links!⬇️
