It's our podcast and we'll talk about whatever we want. Welcome to a return to normalcy where we cover a variety of subjects instead of just a couple of really long ones. Crack open a beer and chill with us. We're gonna talk about the Galaxy showcase, Marathon, Skyblivion & the leaked Oblivion remake, and a whole bunch more.

In the opening of the episode we get Vic's reaction to a really specific trailer, if you want to follow along, this is the link to that video

BACK IN MY DAY WE HAD A LIMITED NUMBER OF WHETSTONES

It's time for the obligatory Monster Hunter episode. Some of the audio is a little messed up towards the end of the episode, sorry about that.
