Metal Gear Mondays Podcast

"Tactical Podcast Action"

Metal Gear Mondays is a games-club podcast that is produced and edited by Alessio Summerfield, and co-hosted by Sam Wright and Isaac Lim, as well as a number of guests.

The show's hosts give an in-depth, play-by-play of their personal accounts of the portions of each game covered in the episodes, as well as personal histories, references observed, and other stories that come up as each section is discussed and each host/guest contributes to the overall conversation.

Mainline episodes covering the games themselves have a typical run time of about an hour and a half, while listener responses and one-off episodes run a bit shorter, such as Episode 10 which covered the game Zone of the Enders, with a total runtime of 20 minutes and 23 seconds. In the final half of the show's coverage of Metal Gear Solid 2 and the introduction of guests on the show, Metal Gear Monday's adopted a bi-weekly release schedule of mainline episodes, with listener response 'Side-op' episodes filling in the weeks between.
