Fresh off of a Cake Bash livestream, we've got another auditory feast for your ears in time for Turkey Day. Ell brings a point and clicker on this Day of the Turkey and gets a crew together for some Black Friday cheevo discounts at the local casino. Nate serves up a cautionary tale of glitched metroidvanias and keeps an eye on the clock. Corey's looking to get on the Road to beat the gamepass departure traffic by possibly picking up some DLC with his holiday money. Kenny gives up some of his valuable gaming time to help an AH101 family member progress closer to their game completion goals.

Microsoft's Black Friday deals are live and running through November 30th and we have a few suggestions that might help you to make decisions on how to fill some gaps in your punchcard.

Waka accepted the Hive Jump challenge and is back to tell you about this weird wonder.

Nate played the Xbox Series X exclusive Bright Memory. Did he make Corey jealous? Ell got his Series X! What did he play first and what boneheaded move did he make? Corey played a niche game involving drones. Kenny played a classic game from....2006? Only took him 14 years. Ell played the super SCARY Goosebumps. What old school game did it remind him of?

The community question asked us what we notice first when we make a new friend on TrueAchievements.  We announce the winners of the Streak King challenge, break down the GTASC losers, and read off the milestones of the community! There's something here for everyone, so check us out, we are on a casserole!

Your next favorite segment kicks off as bros Elroy and Chewie spit some fire of truth as they both have something to say and they are both right. Give these bros a listen as they address speed running lunacy and the best game ever created by the bros at Telltale in the most sizzling hot take and bro fusion segment ever aired on AH101's airwaves.  It is Hot Takes from the Broderlands.   #gains&sizzles   CAUTION: may singe eyeBROws.

• Bite the Bullet

This week's panel - Big Ell, KooshMoose, rawkerdude, FuFuCuddilyPoof

Our main topic of conversation revolves around achievement lists being modified after release to become easier. Do we like this? Is this fair to the people who have completed the game already? Shouldn't the developer be entitled to some attention leading to fresh sales?

Nate is beating yet another server closure! Ell is insane for playing the same game more than once in the pursuit of a completion. Kenny kicks some doors down! Corey tells us untold stories about Stories Untold. Mind. Blown.

Gears Pop is going down. We discuss what went wrong. Will we miss it?

We have giveaways! We have contests! Listen and enjoy!

GTASC week 3 is done and our panel is wearing their shiny badges. The weather is cooling off so Ell stays Inside and plays some comfort games. Fufu's too busy to play games, but at least he's not dancing to GTASC's tune. Nate completes another game about to leave Game Pass in time to start another game about to leave Game Pass. Corey provides the intel on a new game and as we all know, that's half the battle.

The panel discusses two quick news stories about xCloud and answers a community question.

Adventures of Elena Temple

This week's panel: Big Ell, KooshMoose, & rawkerdude5012

The XBox Hall of Fame is apparently a thing. Think you have a shot at earning your way in?

The gang may be a panelist down, but they're not phoning it in. Ell harvests some achievements from his garden of games just in time for some contests and he makes sure to not overwater. Corey spends some time with baby's second platformer based on a successful internet streaming franchise. Nate plays a good "Bad" game and tries to wash off the sewer stink of a bad copycat of a good game.

Chewie & Vulgar embrace the spooky season with a chat about some of their favorite horror games that are playable on Xbox One, and a few horrifyingly bad ones too. (1:28:55)

This week Waka talks about the game Bucket Knight to help keep those left in the leap frog contest alive. (2:08:15)
