If you’re like us, you’re probably still shopping for Christmas gifts. Glove and Boots stars Mario and Fafa are joined by Zack – a human in a walrus costume – to make sure the items you’re buying really do what they say they will, and that they don’t totally suck.

Between Rise of the Skywalker, The Mandalorian, and all of the buzz surrounding the launch of Disney+, it’s a good time to be a part of the Star Wars franchise. That is, unless you’re an Ewok.

Glove and Boots: The Word Game

Glove and Boots: The Word Game

Mario and Fafa take a day off from scripted comedy to do a little improv. First, they play a fun game where they have to try and say the same word at the same time, then another where they identify celebrities and characters who are progressively smaller than the last one they mentioned. Who could be tinier than Ant-Man?

If Life Were a Video Game

If Life Were a Video Game

Video games glorify all kinds of stuff, but if real life played out like games do, with loading screens, cutscenes, A/B choices, side quests, and inane conversations, it probably would be pretty miserable. Glove and Boots demonstrate why you wouldn’t want to live in an RPG.

Glove & Boots: Eight New Apps

Glove & Boots: Eight New Apps

There’s an app for just about everything, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few ideas yet to be executed. Mario and Fafa present a few concepts which they think should be made. We’re pretty sure U.S. presidential campaign writers are already using Wing Zingers.

Glove and Boots and Shakespeare

Glove and Boots and Shakespeare

We’ve all read our share of Shakespeare in school, but the combination of old English and William’s flowery prose sometimes makes it difficult to comprehend exactly what he was talking about. Our favorite YouTube puppets do their best to sort Romeo & Juliet out for us.

The Kevin Smith Blog

The Kevin Smith Blog

What happens when you let Kevin Smith loose to direct an episode of Glove and Boots? It turns into a philosophical exploration of the worlds of Star Wars, comic books, hockey, starring foul-mouthed convenience store clerks.

To Meh with You

Worst Game Show Ever!

Worst Game Show Ever!

Circle gets the square! Mario and Fafa play for fabulous prizes on this surreal mashup of classic TV game shows, hosted by “Hanzi”. The Wheel of Fortune puzzle is classic. It could use more Price is Right and Family Feud, though.

Robin Hood 101
