Can You Confirm That?

Well, it took 125 episodes to crack us. We finally fell into Boomer territory with this one. A big promise to not make this a common occurrence. 

Some times you need to reflect on how things have changed in society and that positive impression of the past, whether it was actually good or not... Is called Nostalgia. Have some fun while we explore the difference we are observing in the world today.

This week, we start our coverage of HBO's "The Last of Us" series, starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. The show aired last Sunday (Jan. 15th, 2023) and was the second biggest release ever on the HBO network. That could be in part to it being based on a very popular Playstation videogame of the same name from 2013. Do you need to have played the game to enjoy the show, we are going to find out. One of us (John) has played and one of us (Gaurav) hasn't. How will that effect our opinions of the show and how closely does the show stick to the source material anyways? Is that important? 

Traditionally, video game adaptations are not well received so stick with us to find out! 

As always, thanks for listening.

It's about to get real nerdy in here... Are you excited about hearing two 40 year-olds fumble their way through creating a role-playing character for Dungeons & Dragons?! This suits our tagline perfectly, two non-experts with nimble wiki fingers. Luckily, our favorite new collaborator, ChatGPT was there to help us form our characters backstory. Check out www.cyctpod.com and Instagram @canyouconfirmthat to follow the adventures of Aric The Snake. 

It's surprisingly fun to live in that world. 

As always, thank you guys, new and old for listening and helping us do this. You're the best! 

Spread the word.

Well, was he? My uncle worked for Canada Brick, was he? 

This week we take another risk. It's not enough that the Christmas associations are after us, we would like the rest of the governing associations across the globe to target us but talking about the Freemasons and other secret societies. I guess we will confirm or deny whether these forces should be messed with by how successful this episode is.. 

Maybe you can help!? Go to our website www.cyctpod.com and listen to our podcast, send us a message or fill out a poll. Like, follow, subscribe and review where possible. We appreciate every effort, more camo from the laser sights.

The House of Mouse has a new headmaster... well, kind of an old, returning leader - Bob Iger is back and Bob Chapek is out. Might have been over Bob (second ones) head as he was really the guy who should be running the parks.
