We got a good one this week. We're talking about the terrible state that first party studios are in AND we're talking about all the hidden gems we're finding during the Steam Next Fest. Also, I gotta apologize to my main man Jonathan. For the second week in a row, I called you out and slandered your name. This week was truly uncalled for and I sincerely apologize. Tune in to the episode to find out why Jonathan got slandered AGAIN.

How much review can a review reviewer view if a reviewer viewer could review? We try to answer this question in this week's episode. Just kidding. The question doesn't make any sense. Did you actually think that we could answer a question like that? What is wrong with you? You need to stop being so gullible. By the way did you know that if you google the word gullible it takes you to your google profile page? No way. I got you again. That's crazyyyyy.
