  • Sitting Around Waiting For Yeast To Die

    • Darkest Dungeon: I Could Fuck Up A Bird
      This week, Jordan and Ashe had big plans and long lists of games to cover, but none of that matters because they accidentally spent an hour talking about Darkest Dungeon. So, welcome to the unplanned Darkest Dungeon Deep Dive! Say that five times fast.

      • Grubby Little Trophy Goblin
        This week we're grappling with our own mortality as we fight our way through life, afterlife, and impossibly petty god-like deities. Along the way, Ashe disappoints some aliens and Jordan misses a key piece of narrative exposition.
