I know it depends on what you end up playing, but I think this format can lend itself to some thematic cohesion. Say: This is the BLIPS about mechanic weirdness, or about thematic geographies. Yet, this episode works wonderfully and is, like the games, a nice snack. I think one of the three games could do with a little bit more thematic analyses - as a hook, since it is your thing, and I think Art Sqool was the game you talked about like that. Much enjoyable.
