February 18, 2023 The Pathless (All Bosses)
*This month's topic was selected by one of our very own patrons: Hypixion! We had a blast watching an All Bosses run of The Pathless - a gorgeous game with a zen-like movement flow and a whole lot of giraffes (if snakes are giraffes). This is definitely one to listen to the commentary track and watch the run along with us for sure!*

We always talk about speedruns from a "watchability" perspective on our show, but what exactly does that mean? What can make a speedrun bad to watch? What about a game that's bad to speedrun at all?? Luigi and Hobz dive into the nitpicky sides of speedrunning in this meta topic on the genre as a whole.
