Every character has an origin story. Maybe they have fallen into a vat of radioactive eels, fallen into a pit of radioactive sand, fallen into a vat of mind-twisting chemicals, fallen into a mess of hazardous materials, or fallen into a lightning bolt that struck a bunnch of chemicals and somehow created the speedforce, every character has an origin story. Today's FLAVOR TEXT takes time to dive into the nerdy origin story of each co-host of Debate This! Come along with us as we discuss the games that made us, the nerd franchises that critically impacted our personalities well into our adult years, and how none of our origins involve falling into anything unless you count falling into the depression caused by the post-2008 job market. Special thanks to the only blood relative of this podcast who supports the fruits of our efforts and also isn't Matt's mom, "Dr. Garlicbutter," for commissioning this introspective dive into our own nerdy backstories.
