IGN UK Podcast

The Firm™ is back and we have another 2 seasons worth of updates for your ears. After Dale's amazing back-to-back promotions, can he maintain the same pace with Coventry City? Joe saw unprecedented success in his first season at Real Betis, has he peaked too soon? And Cardy regails us in a story of highs, lows and betrayal with his Rochdale run. Oh, and we've got another 3 copies of Football Manager 2020 to give away - make sure to listen through to the end for that. If you want to get in touch the address is: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

IGN does lots of Game the Year Award categories, but we just can't cover everything. That's where IGN UK comes in, to dish out awards for the stuff no one else will. Like the game that makes kids call you lame on the tube, or the game that makes you feel smarter than you ever actually will be, or the game that work made us frightened of. All of those awards and more are handed out in this retrospective edition of the podcast. Also, Joe tells a cautionary story about having his legs laughed at.

There's not much going on with video games at the moment so this week Cardy, Joe and Matt talk all about them movies. There's new Bond and Black Widow trailers to dissect, plus Matt has seen 1917 and tells us why its an absolute banger. Joe got the chance to speak with Joker director Todd Phillips which inspired us to come up with our own pitches for DC movies, the directors we'd like to see make them and why Shaun Williamson aka Barry from Eastenders should play every role in the DC universe. The Endless Search is a verified nail biter this week as we take on a new game. Please enjoy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We're back for another 90 minutes (that was unintentional, we just talk a lot) of chat about our burgeoning Football Manager careers. Joe, Dale and Cardy have finished their second seasons at Betis, Coventry and Rochdale, with varying levels of GREAT SUCCESS. We also have an untitled little Football Manager game, and some incredible stories of managements past you sent through to us. Oh, and we've got another 3 copies of Football Manager 2020 to give away - make sure to listen through to the end for that. If you want to get in touch the address is: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

Dale, Cardy and Joe - the Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci of podcasting - have convened this week to pour praise on The Irishman, pour slightly more cryptic praise on Parasite, check in on Death Stranding and Jedi: Fallen Order, and then talk some Mandalorian spoilers at the very end. The Endless Search brings back the insanely difficult quote translation game in nicer form, which is fun. Also there's a touching bit where Joe's dad call to check if he's alive. Enjoy.

Look, Disney owns everything now. It more than likely owns one of us on the show and we just don't know about it - Dale, probably, he's the most marketable. We can't do anything about that, so here's a podcast where talk about some of its High Quality Star Wars Products in great detail. On top of that, we've got a Star Wars-themed Endless Search, a bit of Star Wars-themed feedback and, er, someone who doesn't like the idea of our Football Manager spin-off. Fair enough, really.

Some of us here at the IGN UK office spend more time than is healthy - both professionally and medically - talking about Football Manager. That's why we've finally given into our desires and created a spin-off podcast all about the newest game in the series, Football Manager 2020. Welcome to It's Football Day, our twice-monthly show all about the greatest spreadsheets on this sweet Earth of ours. It's also a tiny bit about Charlie Hunnam's accent in Green Street. Join Cardy, Joe and Dale as we introduce our teams, our objectives, our first signings, and possibly even our FUTURE DESTINY. Fair warning: if you don't like football, or Football Manager, this might be completely impenetrable (but it might make an amazing sleep aid). We've also got 5 copies of Football Manager 2020 to give away - make sure to listen through to the end for that. And remember, if you want to get in touch the address is: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

This week we have special superstar guest Sydnee Goodman join Cardy and Joe to tell them all about a frankly bizarre sounding childhood filled with pun-slinging cartoon dogs, pineapple haired teens and clipping her own ears back to create leprechaun ears. It's a wild ride. Cardy's been playing that new Pokemon Sword and Shield game so talks about that for a bit, plus the trailer showdown of the century is here as Sonic the Hedgehog takes on Scooby-Doo. The Endless Search returns as we take another dive into the deep lagoon of Hideo Kojima's tweets. And remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... and that's exactly what you're getting. Dale and Joe's impressions of Kojima's latest is succulently sandwiched between two beautifully baked slices of wholemeal in the shape of Cardy and Alex's trials with Modern Warfare's Spec Ops, and excitement for Overwatch 2. Go On Name Them makes a glorious return and the Cardy's Football Manager team is revealed in a podcast climax that the world has never heard the like of, and likely never will again...

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... but we're not allowed to talk about that. Come back! We promise we have so much more! We've got hot, steaming opinions about Modern Warfare, Luigi's Mansion 3, and Doctor Sleep for you - it's a pop culture bonanza, baby. This week's Endless Search also includes a major last-minute twist for the second week in a row. Is this the best feature ever? I'm starting to thiiiink so...
