Thus begins Gith week, where we try to distinguish between three sets of indistinguishable shrunken mummy men.

My cyber friends, let us avoid the crunchpunks by plugging this filthy jack into the back of our elbows... Here we are: absorbed within the placentaverse of this vegan dopplersphere.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross roll on through the first portion of Neverwinter Nights 2.

Let's face it, this is an awkward, awkward game. They heydey of Dungeons and Dragons CRPGs didn't involve 3D graphics or voice acting, and Neverwinter Nights 2 leans on those when it ought not to. But that doesn't mean there's nothing to recommend it. Beyond the infuriating camera, you will find a really fun adaptation of the D&D 3.5 ruleset, and some very inventive story beats.

This episode covers the entirety of Chapter 1. The next episode will cover Chapters 2 and 3.

Kris and Kole talk about Randy Quaid, singles ads, and rogue weather forecasting.

ALSO: No silence. Our incipient apocalypse. Randy Quaid again. Brian’s vanishing. Weird singles ads. None more black. Trump design.

Our discussion of giants comes to a weird head... specifically by talking about a giant with a weirdly-shaped head.
