In this week's episode, Maui and Bambi take a trip down memory lane and look back at their high school days. High school is chaotic because people are trying to find themselves, finish homework, do sports/activities, and study for SATs. For some people their high school experience is amazing, and they find a group of friends that last them a lifetime. Unfortunately, for others, it's a terrible experience due to the egos of their peers and teachers. We hope all our listeners had a good time during high school and can enjoy this little journey through some old memories alongside the boys. 

In this week's episode, Maui gets a chance to sit down with Charles and talk about video games.

You'll hear the two talk about their favorite games and systems from their childhood as well as the games they've enjoyed recently. We hope all the gamers enjoy this episode and it reminds you of some amazing games from the past.

A lot of schools and colleges have begun recently and many students are finally back on campus for their classes or at least have a hybrid model for this term. One of those students happens to be our very own Waffles, who recently moved into his dorm. Due to the pandemic, he had to take online classes for his first year after transferring from a community college. Now he finally gets a chance to have the full college experience. For those of us who've been through this process, we know that it can be daunting. Not only do you have to worry about setting up your room, but you also have to build rapport with roommates and get used to your new campus.

Last week we had Friday the 13th and this got the boys thinking about superstitions, magic, and other out of the box beliefs. So for this week’s topic they decided to take a deeper dive into magic, superstitions, and dreams. A slew of other topics also get covered throughout the episode but for the most part the boys discuss somethings in our world today that could constitute as magic. They also describe the type of magic they would most like to see in our world and go down a rabbit hole of events/instances they have experienced that are somewhat magical or unexplainable.

Often characters in movies, shows, cartoons, anime, and books are categorized based on certain traits and methods they carry out. For this week’s episode the boys are specifically focusing on how protagonists are categorized or perceived. They debate whether some of these protagonists are true heros, a regular hero, or aren’t a hero at all. Make sure you listen or watch the entire episode to see Maui and Waffles get into some heated debates because some of these characters are definitely on the border for these classifications of a hero.
