Everyone's doing great this week! What crushing existential weight? Feeling fine! This week, everyone discusses all the things they're doing while Feeling Fine: Norris is off the soda wagon, Jack is forgetting how to speak to his childhood friends, Kelly and Char are exploring spooky Silent Hill towns, and Dave lets us know about why EVO Online got cancelled, and why it should be cancelled.

Every day we stray further from the light. Speaking of crushing depression, we all dig even deeper into The Last of Us Part 2 this week, while Mike gives us an update on Min-Min, and Norris gets really into Mahjong.

What a week to hold a vibe check. We all deal with anxiety in different ways. Some of us listen to music, some of us exercise, and some of us play 70 hours worth of Yuigoh games on a GBA emulator.

It's Definitely True. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Kelly Wright, Char Bayer, David Beebe, Mike Parker, Steph Fan Intro/Outro Music by David Beebe

A night where the fellas come together and talk about Russian film, literature, and video games. This week Norris is back trying to convince everyone to play some indie art nonsense, though he *promises* this time it's good. He's been playing a lot of Pathologic 2, and is addicted to getting hurt by it. As well, Bill went into the virtual realm to play some Half Life: Alyx, and has some thoughts. And as ever, Matt has some movie recommends, including a very good, very Soviet sci-fi classic, Stalker.

You watch one docu-drama about the Japanese adult film industry and you never live it down. This week, Norris explains why spending $40 on a soda mug was a prudent investment. After that nonsense, though, we get into MK:11 Aftermath, some XCOM: Chimera Squad, some FF7R, and decide that the peak of movie comedy was when people hit each-other with frying pans.

Why don't they make Bacardi 151 anymore? In this day and age its power is more needed than ever. This week, Jack and Kelly go pirating in a Sea of Thieves, Char is professional Animal Crossing gardener, Steph is debating which one of us is most edible, Mike just wants to play fighting games, and Norris thinks the future of video games is board games.

The gang is getting back on their bullshit, with a lot of Final Fantasy 7 Remake, a lot of Rimworld, and some fighting games to even it out.

Rockstar Energy has crossed me for the last time. Topics this week include how we're all surviving being locked indoors, why Capcom should(n't) remake Resident Evil: Code Veronica, chocobo trap music, and Matt's Movie Corner!

Sometimes the only thing to do while locked up alone in your apartment is to go total hypebeast. We investigate this week what happens when a person has no internet and an 120-hour maso-core CRPG, but not before once again forgetting how to podcast. Topics this week also include the Resident Evil 4 Remake and why it should actually be Code Veronica, what each-other's Crusader King 2 traits are, questioning if the new XCOM game is Matt-bait, and determining which Final Fantasy 7 waifu is the worst and why.

Like any good religion, there must be divisions. This week, we spend a heck of a lot of time trying to determine if Tom Nook and Isabelle are just friends, or in a sad relationship of convenience. My money's on the latter. We also have an argument about what kind of game Animal Crossing is that inevitably turns into us creating a religion and then immediately developing warring sects within it. Like all good religions.
