Episode 709 - A Mashup of Mashups

We're mashing stuff up! First up we're looking at the mashup of Marvel & MTG. The first batch of the Marvel cards were revealed at New York Comic Con so of course, we're gonna check them out. Then it's a mashup of our own creation, the good old Magic Mad Lib.

To finish up we're going into one of the most famous mashups in video games! What happens when you smash Disney into Final Fantasy? You get Kingdom Hearts! Chewie & Dirk recently finished the first game, Brian has played it relatively recently, and Mike played it way back in the day. We go into the ups and downs of the first game because why not?

The dorks return! This time we're Just Chatting about all kinds of stuff! First up is our Thanksgiving holidays and food experiences. Then Brian has a question about parenting, which we tangent off of several times.

Then Brian disappears, so Chewie talks about all the games he's been playing lately (Tunic, Vampire Survivors, Hitman, Forced Showdown). Then Mike talks about what he's been up to lately and we discuss maintaining our sanity in these trying times. How are you maintaining your sanity these days?
