  • Ep. 92: SNEStalgia
    This week, real-life Pierce is off the grid, but podcast Pierce is available through some sorcery (i.e. we pre-recorded the episode) to talk about his and Max's recent purchase of the SNES Classic. Pop culture nostalgia is discussed, and something—possibly hilarity, but probably not—ensues. Then, if you stick around at the end, you can get an exclusive sneak peek at the kind of preparation the gang does before a recording session. MUSIC: "You Don't Hang Around" - The Lovely Bad Things
