** Hey guys, Henry here - really sorry for the delay on this one, various life-things got in the way and to give full transparency, I've been in a slight creative slump in the latter end of January. BUT! I've powered through to bring you our 2022 round-up awards! I hope you all enjoy it. We'll be back in two weeks with our next regular-style-episode. Thank you so much for listening and for your patience. We love you. :) **
Welcome once again to the second annual Niche Guys year end awards show! Once again the boys run down their 2022 top 3 things for Games, TV, Movies, Music and Anime, making sure to get the humidity up in the venue and get you all nice and sweaty.
In this episode Henry becomes a real bean-boy and helps out his stuck step-potbro. Alex regrets being too drunk to remember a 2 hour movie and not being drunk enough to forget a 4 hour long movie. And the boys talk about the Job Food Chain and keep in all the extra beer-can snaps and chair creaks, for all the dirt and mess you would expect from a real awards show.

The Niche Guys' latest episode is here for you to loop continuously until you can work out the right steps to prevent Alex from quoting the same Simpsons line again and get Henry to stop defending that fascist TinTin.
In this episode Alex laments his first world manga problems and suplexes an evil tree. Henry finally relents and gives us a music pick he’s been holding back since season 1 and gets all vengeful and Shakespearean with his film pick.
And what begins as a joke at Alex’s expense turns into the boys' new blockbuster franchise.
