CHAPTER MARKERS BELOW! HUGE INNOVATION FOR THE POD!

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Discord did me fine, but Audacity did me dirty. I've been relocated to a small bayside cottage thanks to the devastating effects of October's Hurricane Fiona, so I've moved this PC of mine hither and yawn since. Throughout this oddysey, Audacity would have the audacity to razz me, my increasing my recording level fifteen points higher than usual. I sound like a pillowcase full of gravel. Nevertheless, the edit came out quite well. Pretty happy with it. I implore you to indulge it, and I appreciate it that you do. On with the episode! - Ben, from the Podcast)

2022? More like twenty-twenty-WHO?! We say goodbye to yesterday with one last trip around the block, as Ben rattles off his top ten games of the year, and the guys award their top honours to eleven games across a variety of categories. We hope you enjoy!
