This week, we had a spreadsheet packed with discussion topics, but we barely scratched the surface. In the past, people have said episodes like this are the best, so here's hoping that's still the case!

We’ve been punching fascists all week!

Burn your backpacks! Just kidding, don’t do that. Go play Indian Jones and the Great Circle instead!

Our meme-coin isn't a scam, but only because we're not smart enough to know how you would make one a scam.

We’re thankful for you, listener! We’re also thankful for Red Dwarf, Quantum Break, Thanksgiving (the movie), Blood Rage, Kristy, The Rock and more!

When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightening or rain? How about in Streamyard on Saturday morning? And what shall we three discuss? The Rock pissing in bottles? Pets pissing on your Switch? Alan Wake 2? Quantum Break? Control? Stalker 2? Silo? From? Yes to all those things and more!!!

The fight of the… week? Dan and Luke discuss Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, Raygun, Wicked, North Korean soldiers, Chloe Moretz, Firewatch, Baldurs Gate, Cult of the Lamb and more!

Good thing nothing happened in the world this week and we can just focus on fun topics like Alan Wake 2, Fallout Season 2 starring Macauley Culkin, the Mass Effect TV series, Sega and much more!

Show Matt the Champion of Light, and he’ll show you the Herald of Darkness!

Luke and Dan were at PAX, Matt was not. This is their story. They also weigh in on Alien: Romulus, Disco Elysium, Skyrim, Joker 2, and more!
