This week, it's a Doom blowout as we cover our history with the franchise + early impressions of Doom The Dark Ages. PLUS, it's Mental Health Awareness month, so we breakdown the Games for Impact category at The Game Awards, and share some games that have helped us get through rough spots.

And if you'd like to help Patrick rebuild his house/life, there's a gofundme here!
