On the IJN UK podcast this week, we'll be going all sci-fi in space, on spaceships and in the upside down.

Ooh.

Been getting there really in some cor. Last couple of weeks.

The podcast has started now.

What?

Oh, Jesus Christ.

All right, this is how we do it.

What, have you not?

You said you've just been getting into porridge.

I thought you did the little intro and I'm going to lead into something different and not just like porridge chat after setting up. I mean, I guess it's that we're opening it now. Welcome to the IJN UK podcast show all about the latest video games, movies and TV shows. I'm Simon Cardi. This week I'm joined by Jesse Gomez. Hello. And Tom Phillips. Hey there. Are you guys into porridge? Not really, to be honest. I think it's quite a poor way to start your day. Well, I don't know. I don't have breakfast, which I have been told is also a poor way to start the day, but it just... Yeah, Dale will also parrot that, but I'm just like, I've been fine without breakfast for years. Well, I was thinking

this for a good, I want to say good 15 years. I've been an anti-breakfast eater. I'm not into it. A coffee will get me through till lunch. But recently, I've moved into a new place. I have a bit more freedom, a bit more, you know, time in the morning. I wake up that extra 15 minutes early, you know because I know about you like I like I'm still getting used to a new bed. It takes me quite a while. Like, I'm waking up early, that sort of thing. So I have that extra. Go on. Sorry, Tom. No, no. Do you wake up sometimes and wonder where you are? A little bit. I'm like, okay, this isn't the room I'm used to. I'm slowly getting used to it, I think, you know. But I now have this extra little 15 minute porridge pocket in the morning where I can, you know, put a little, little oats so simple, whatever, Quakers. I can't remember what brand I've got, you know, and just, you know, I've got the little nice golden syrup flavor. Just pour a little bit of milk in that sash, microwave it. You know, you've got a lovely little, small little breakfast there. Oaks are very good for you. I get a kick out of the only thing that was stopping you from having breakfast was being a homeowner. Well, I don't know. I just, you know, it's kind of, you know, it's getting colder, a nice little bit of warm breakfast, you know. What's going to stop me having breakfast is the words porridge pocket. Yeah. I mean, it was, look, it's delightful. I used to be big into a hot, like, cereal as a kid. Like, I used to, like, grow my wheat a bit, because I'm ready breakfast a lot. What What do you mean Jesus Christ? I can just imagine you actually having a porridge pocket and, you know, the school bus is outside and you haven't had time to eat it. So you just like take a fistful of it and then just put it inside. Stuff in my pocket. Yeah. For the bus ride. No, Napoleon dynamite is tater tots, a bit like that.

Yeah, I don't know.

If you're into porridge, IJN underscore UK feedback at IGN.com, let us know the joys of porridge. Oh my God, man.

This week, it's a pod of two halves.

Right at the end of this podcast, after the feedback section, me, Matt and

Dale have recorded a little Stranger Things spoiler chat for the first four episodes of the

new season. So if you've watched that, want to know what we think about it. Stay right till the

end. We've put that as a nice little end bit for anyone. You know, if you don't want it to get

spoiled or you couldn't care less, you know, you can skip that at the end.

I don't blame you.

But we've got Tom and Jesse here because they've been playing some new games out this week.

A couple of sci-fi treats, question mark.
