Your look into what’s new at
The Grapefruit Network
June 2024
It’s good to have you all back - let’s take a swing around The Network and tell ya what’s new!
Jump around to the stuff you want
What’s new at TGN?
New games have hit the pub! Episode 110 brought us “The Percentage Game” where the guys take turns guessing and ranking words (It’s more fun than that makes it sound.)
And then Episode 111 was the return of “Six Degrees” of [REDACTED ACTOR] - as per usual, we’re pushing the bounds of IMDB’s search functionality!
And we have some great table topics - but you know what’s better than generic table topics?? Listener-submitted table topics! So if you’ve got a question for the gang, reply to this email and give us your thoughts!

Potter Plus Episode Two dropped this month! William & Cody chat Legacy Actors from the original Potter Franchise, and fan-cast them into new roles for the upcoming HBO show! You won’t want to miss this one.

Calm Down Cody | Nintendo, the Emulation Question is Your Game To Lose
(5 Minute Read)
So, if you are not up with the news on Big Tech, the iPhone can finally play emulated games for retro consoles. (Do not @ me, Android users. I know you guys have been able to do it since the beginning and are freer than we, Apple Sheep. I do not want to get into the extremely tired phone wars.) This is partly because the European Union has forced Apple to open iPhones to third-party app stores, and Apple is trying desperately to dissuade anybody from using them. So, Apple responded by relaxing the rules in their App Store. It has been marvelous playing classic Gameboy games that I played as a kid on my smartphone. This change in Apple's rules has made the iPhone a better product….
