Uh oh y'all, we're talking Magic the Gathering in this episode and how Skydance licenses their properties pretty much exclusively with Paramount. Rick and Morty booster packs coming when, bro???

Hate Magic the Gathering? Skip to about 45 minutes in to hear us talk movies and politics.

Also, yes, Alek sounds really bad in this episode, idk what happened.

We're just goofin' around on this one! Conner and Alek didn't watch anything but there's a lot of news to discuss! Basically, we guested on another podcast, noticed a bunch of downloads and thought "OH GEEZ!!! We better record something!" but we promise it's not a half-assed job!

We're talking RAGEBAIT today! What pisses you off online and why does it feel so much intentional?

Editor's note: when Conner mentioned the Nine Inch Noize collab album and he said "Noize Boys". He meant "Boys Noize". If you got mad hearing that, you're the problem.

Holy moly, it's finally over. Conner came, he read, he wrote. His thesis is done and approved and now it's content for you, dear listener.

This episode has been a long time coming (by which I mean Alek has been pestering Conner to cover this for MONTHS)! Alek gives Conner a lesson on The Bulwark and their media network made up of Never Trumpers.
