Season 1
Resident Evil 3 Anniversary - Traffic Jam Burrito
Squidge teams up with special guest host Nomad to ask Jay why he only ever played 10 minutes of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. They also try to convince him to play the game, but will their interrogation succeed? And just what is a Traffic Jam Burrito?
And how is it that Resident Evil 3: Nemesis came out 24 years ago? Seriously?!

Show Notes
Did you know that Jay had never played the original Resident Evil 3? Like, the PlayStation game. He's played the remake, but never played the OG through to completion. Well, Squidge and Nomad wanted to team up and try to convince Jay to see the error of his ways. As such, this special episode is a slight departure from the normal state of affairs around here - and just in time for the 24th anniversary of Jill's epic escape from the city.

Today we're diving into the world of raccoon city zombies and the relentless Nemesis Jay's in the hot seat. And today it's our job to try and convince Jay to play more than ten minutes of the original.
— Squidge
So let's grab your green herbs and let's get ready to waffle about a game that made our hearts race faster than a survivor encountering nemesis in a tight corridor.
— Nomad
That's right. Let's brace ourselves to give Jay STARS and start the show.
— Squidge
But before they could do that, Jay wanted Nomad to describe his podcast - which you should DEFINITELY listen to, by the way - to everyone listening in:
So I have a podcast, it is called the Retro Wildlands.
And in this podcast, I myself play retro games either for the first time or I go back and play them again when I used to play them when I was a child. And the idea behind the podcast is I just want to immerse you in the experience of that game. Whether you've played it before, you'll get a nice hit of nostalgia as I take you down memory lane, or if you've never played the game before, you'll know what it is that it's all about in case maybe you want to play it someday.
My podcast is on all the major services you can find us on Spotify, iTunes, all the big ones. I have a link tree. That sounds cool. So I made one. You can go to linktr.ee/retrowildlands and it'll take us to all of my socials: Facebook, Instagram - I'm just running around in the wildlands everywhere on the Internet, so that's how you can find me.
And yeah, I'd love to have you guys join the expedition.
— Nomad
Announcements
Before the episode could start properly, there were a few announcements to make. Firstly (and most importantly):
Today I celebrate my 39th year on this planet. It is my birthday.
— Nomad
And it was a great honour to have Nomad share part of his level 39 celebrations with us.
And secondly:
And secondly:
So the day that this is going to be released is what I refer to as "Resident Evil 3 day," this is going out on September 28th. I would say "daylight", it's already scorched my eyes - that's why I had to close the curtains.
...
So it's going to be a Resident Evil 3 day. And it came to an idea that maybe we should, I don't know, ask Jay about his experiences with Resident Evil 3. But watch out! A wild alert appears.
What we've decided to do is first of all, I've decided that I know how the soundboard works, so you're in trouble. What we've decided to do is co conspire against Jay, stick him in the hot seat. Me and Nomad are going to be hosting the show.
— Squidge
The Questions
Squidge and Nomad split their questions into two categories:
- Specifically about the remake (or "Three-make")
- Specifically about the original
We've included some quotes for some of the questions, but this episode went DEEP into Jay's thoughts about the 1999 original and the 2020 remake. There's a tonne of stuff in the episode that we couldn't include in these show notes. so definitely give the episode a listen.
