Happy 2020 folks, unfortunately for your ear holes we did in fact survive the holiday season! Just some brief housekeeping notes before I get into more details about this week’s episode. First, we did record an episode last week, but it didn’t really turn out very good so I decided not to release it. Second, progress on the new show we announced is coming along well we’re thinking after one more test episode it will be ready for release (even if the website isn’t). Now, on today’s episode Ivan, Donut, and I relive some of our memories from the history of gaming consoles in the Breaking Point. It was a slow week in gaming for the three of us, because Ivan and I forgot the episode we recorded last week didn’t get released. Finally, in the news this week we discuss Dell’s awful Switch ripoff. All this and more in today’s show!

The new year is quickly approaching and with it the chaos of the holidays. So given the enormous effort that goes into making this show every week (even if it doesn’t sound like it), we, the team behind this wonderful podcast have decided to take the month off. I know, it’s going to be rough, don’t cry… What do you mean they’re tears of joy… You ************* **** **** ***** [crashing sounds]… Sorry about that. Anyway, we decided it would be a good idea to try to predict some of the upcoming news articles we would miss (yes, we know we got one of the publishers wrong). We also discussed some of our plans while we’re not recording, including working on a new podcast! It’s been an eventful year, I’d like to extend a special thanks to my brother Justin who took over the preliminary editing earlier this year and my co-host Ivan who has taken the news segment and really made it his own; and with that, we’ll see you all next year!
