Ep. 53 – Battle of the Consoles! Kicking Off Season 3 with the Ultimate 16-Console Bracket
Season 3 of The Terrible Gamers Podcast is here, and we’re starting with a bang! In Episode 53, Kevin and Kyle dive headfirst into the ultimate retro gaming showdown: a 16-console bracket to determine which console truly reigns supreme. From the NES to the PlayStation 2, the Sega Genesis to the Nintendo Switch, we’re debating graphics, gameplay, library, and pure nostalgia points—and yes, things get heated.
Expect a mix of serious analysis, ridiculous opinions, and a few nostalgic stories that might make you laugh, groan, or shake your head in disbelief. Whether you grew up blowing into cartridges, smashing arcade joysticks, or just love retro chaos, this episode is the perfect kickoff to Season 3.
We also want you, the viewers, to get involved—agree, disagree, and maybe even start plotting your own “best console of all time” bracket. Your nostalgia might just clash with ours, and that’s exactly the point.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
