We often talk about how we come in hot to the recordings. Now you get to watch it happen in real time as we jettison everything 10 minutes in and call an audible in real time. What started as our next session of Season of Ghosts ends up completely off the rails.

Watch Matt's expression change when the idea pops into his head. Watch Arthur's brain completely break for about eight seconds.

We start the important task of ranking every RPG ever... as we play them (human life spans permitting). A little bonus ranking every ever thrown in around the trivia.

Also sincere apologies to Cezar Capacle for Arthur confusing who designed Midnight Melodies with who posted the link that introduced Arthur to Midnight Melodies back in the day (spoiler alert, it was Emanoel Melo, designer of CBR+PNK). Matt catches it pretty quickly but Arthur feels bad about that mistake.
