This week we welcome a guest onto the show in lieu of having Ticky give us his patented "Well actually" treatment.  Oh what a relief!  We talk with our guest about self medicating, the link between trauma and addiction and whether the aesthetic of calling yourself an addict are a necessary tool 100% of the time or not!  This was a great episode and we'd like to thank Bo, our guest, for being open and vulnerable on the mic!

This week the bands all back together again, much to everyones chagrin (college word ftw).  We dive into some Hockey Tawk, bullshit about the usefulness of VPNs, chat a bit about the the moral and philosophical grounding behind leaglity o/access to mind altering substances and finally wind down with a conversation about missclicking in games we think we know how to play.

It's a hoot and a half round these parts!

This week, Steve is busy trying to find out new and clever ways to make Ticky and I go down esoteric conversational paths against our will.  I'm sure we'll be ready for it though, maybe.  Yeah we will.... he can't get to me.... wait... he's doing it now?!  WTF STEVE!!!  We also discuss ways to approach addicts that need help but aren't ready yet, establishing boundaries with said addicts and then finally Ticky has a take that begs the question "Should Amazon be destroyed if they keep tossing shitty movies in Ticky's path?"

Join us and have a sober giggle!

This week on the show, we're super stoked to have as a guest, Dr. Michael Gallagher as our season finale.  Dr. Gallagher is a former vegetarian, Harvard trained orthopedic surgeon, and terrific moustache grower that also happens to have just written and released a book through Amazon.  The book, "Run Down: An Endurance Athletes Race Against Chrnoic Fatigue" is a memoir detailing Dr Gallaghers struggle with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and drawing parallels between addiction and other stigmatized chronic conditions and ME/CFS. Please join us for an episode described by one critic as "A really smart physician having questions hurled at him like feces from an uncouth alcoholic monkey."

This week, steve challenges science and makes us all out to be scaley fishmen who drink baileys from a shoe (creamy, biege).  Will and Ticky check in ever so briefly on their sobriety and then talk about dipping their toe back into situations that may have lead them to drink at one point or another in the past and finally we talk about the glory that is Michael Ironside and his contribution to vidya games and the only version of Darksied to ever give Will a chubby.

This week we welcome Ticky back to the show with another take on a terrible movie, Steve fails to solo psy-op us so instead we psy-op each other and get lost in the conversational weeds a few times over.  No big deal though you all love our inability to stay on topic right?! RIGHT?!  Anyways, tune in and have a good time yall!

This week Steve and ticky are saving up energy for our monster 21st episode, it'll be old enough to drink and after hearing the movie Ticky's going to review for us, it'll want to.  So instead this week we solo things and chat a bit about V Rising a new Vampire survival game that's in early access as well as the idea of addicts as victims or abusers.

Turn in real real fast and enjoy this short but girthy episode.

Once again Ticky is working as a very low speed crash test dummy! Instead Will and Steve bounce thoughts of Sex Gongs, the impact celebrities can have on influencing our sobriety and finally whether narrative is a more compelling motivator to play a game than mechanics or challenge ratings!

Tune in and thanks for listening!

This week Ticky is off trying to uncover why the ball gag he borrowed tastes a little funny.  In the meanwhile, Steve and Will get Elephantiasis of the Religion,  break down the idea that the inner addict never stops a'whispering and finally do a quicky check in on what they're playing and how much they would love to just get together for non productive gaming goodness and how hard that is for a modern first world human to do (It's so hard you guys!!!)
