September 27, 2023 Episode 26 - Your Name: Or That Time We Drank A Girl's Spit In A Cave and Had An Out of Body Experience
It's episode 26 and everyone in the podcast is sick with something! Marcus is back in the host seat, and they decide to do something a little different. Instead of assigning a show, Marcus assigns the 2016 Makoto Shinkai movie "Your Name." Will Dan and Nick enjoy this supernatural romance? Or will they find it to be out of sync?

For episode 24, not only do the dice have the power, but we also bring in special guest Jon Idrovo to trust fate and watch some anime. The roll provides us with an anime we were all interested in, but will this anime only be a shadow of the hype that preceeds it? Or will it be a flash of brilliance?
