Customer Reviews
Thank god for the electric hydra
Were it not for these hilarious reviewers, my knowledge of games and other random stuff would be non-existant. Everyone should listen to the electric hydra
Simply put: Awesome.
For fans of the former Destructoid.com podcast "Podtoid", The Electric Hydra brings back serveral of the regular cast back together to once more talk on topics in gaming along with added doses of other random things of interest. Enjoyable through and through.
Perfect background chatter for your eighth LIMBO playthrough
Really relaxed, obscene and enjoyable podcast from many of the gentlemen who brought you "Podtoid". Only wish I'd realized this was the spiritual successor to that some months ago. Jim Sterling is still an extremely entertaining personality and my favorite reason for listening. Not to slight the other members of the crew, as they all contribute amusing insights, but Mr. Sterling is the reason for the season and he can be found here in all his foul-mouthed, British glory. Definitely worth subscribing to.
