Everything To Guppy

A near-daily podcast about the items and lore in the Binding Of Isaac.

About the show

William Hughes (The A.V. Club) and Gary Butterfield (Watch Out for Fireballs!) get together four times a week to talk through every single item, trinket, boss, monster, and, really, everything in Edmund McMillen's "The Binding Of Isaac". New, bite-sized episodes come out every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.

    This is a full-length commentary for the 2016 "horror film" The Boy. As usual, the goal is for it to be an entertaining listen with or without the movie, but if you want to watch along, the film is currently available via U.S. Netflix.

    January 3rd, 2021  |  17 mins 1 sec

    Stargash nodded his assent wearily, not trusting himself to speak; he had no objections to motherhood on principle, so much as he knew that chronomancers of all stripes were control freaks, and he wouldn't be the one picking the "least unpleasant" hole in question.

    December 29th, 2020  |  11 mins 35 secs

    Grim formalities concluded, Triple-B began babbling at length, a low, guttural sound not unlike what might happen if a clogged and liquid-stuff garbage disposal also had solid gold gums.

    December 27th, 2020  |  10 mins 34 secs

    This conversational Judo at present left him with no choice but to utter the binding counterphrase: "Then all the clocks must someday be stopped."

  • Episode 597: Apple!

    December 26th, 2020  |  9 mins 35 secs

    Stargash had once met a Murder Monk so pleasant he could literally kill with kindness, gifting others with smiles so wide they split their heads in bloody twain.

  • Episode 592: Mom's Box

    December 17th, 2020  |  9 mins 35 secs

    Finally, he gestured with one fat, stubby, powerful hand, and Tiny Sexy Baby Daddy—suddenly, visibly, nervous—bowed his head in supplication, then spoke in his thin, reedy, sexy voice.

  • Episode 591: Binky

    December 15th, 2020  |  10 mins 4 secs

    But instead of chortling the happy gurgle of a supposedly confused large time baby, Blinkums simply stared at the space-merc's cyberhusk, contemplating what seemed to be vast panoplies of infinities.
