| 10/14/26 | Side Quests Vol. 1 | Much like side streets, side arms, side tables, side dishes and sidemen, can provoke surprisingly strong feelings. This week we're going off the beaten track, ignoring the main objective and tackling the good, the bad and the ugly of secondary storylines. We've got drunken foolery, farting pigs and complete letdowns. But enough about the hosts, on with the podcast! As always, the Boys catch up on what they've been playing this week. Glenn's leaning into spooky season with not only a horrifyingly nostalgic trip to the Scottish Isles but also a video game-themed trip to the cinema. Meanwhile, Sarah's throwing tradition to the wind as they discuss a game they're planning on playing which is like "Breath of the Wild, but good". To follow along with the Button Boys outside the podcast: Thanks again to all those who came to Button Boys Live at Leicester Square Theatre. If you missed it, we're doing another live date on October 15th in Balham at the Cheerful Earful festival. Link below!

| 10/7/26 | The Eras Tour: Best Historical or Futuristic Setting | This week the Boys try to settle the debate raging across the country: which historical or futuristic period makes the best setting for a game? From early symbolic thought through to space travel across the outer reaches of the universe, gaming covers every era, but which one suits it best? Before all that, we check in on Glenn to see how he's dealing with the social media backlash to his Crimson Desert comments and discuss perhaps the most impressive listener contribution to date: a functioning version of Pierre's Commander Sexy pitch. Links below. Pierre continues his quest to get to the bottom of the sandpit, Glenn asks the big questions about The Sims and Sarah attempts to breed on a scale even Elon Musk would be jealous of.

| 9/30/26 | Non-Fatal Flaws: Bad Bits in Good Games | This week's topic is all about the maggot in the apple, the flaw in the diamond, the suspicious stain on the clean-smelling underwear. That's right, it's the parts of otherwise great games that we hate. Disgusting sound effects, tedious intros, impossible tasks and unfamiliar mechanics have all weaselled their way in to the Boys' all-time favourites. But before that, they catch up on what they've been up to this week. Sarah's been developing a nepotistic empire, Glenn's teamed up for a puzzling hike and Pierre's losing himself to one of the most satisfying games he's ever played.

| 9/23/26 | The Worst Game Pitch-Off | If you missed out on the first ever Button Boys LIVE, don't worry, we remembered to record it! This week, the Boys had to pitch their worst-ever game ideas to an audience at Leicester Square Theatre. After a few minor technical hitches, Sarah came straight out of the gates with an avian-themed game for the gerontophiles among us, Pierre set out his vision for a drone-controlled dating sim and Glenn's idea... well, I think you need to hear it for yourself. But before all that, they catch up on what they've been up to, with Glenn playing a nephew game, Sarah trying to lower expectations with the latest Marvel game and Pierre returning 18th-century warfare with the Swedes in his sights.

| 9/16/26 | August Annals: What We've Been Playing | I'll let you into a secret. We've been lying to you all this time. Every week, when you think you're listening to the latest video game content your podcast app of choice has to offer, we've been pulling the wool over your eyes. That's right, what you've been hearing is literally weeks old. But don't fear, because The Boys are back and fresh as hell. With a month off between recordings, they've created quite a backlog of games, so in this episode they're going to recap the heady days of August and early September. Pierre spills the tea on what actually happened on his gaming PC's Odyssean adventure, Sarah's returned to an old nemesis and finds themselves much better acquainted than they expected and Glenn's been suffering from the munchies when the sun goes down.
