Back to the basics this week. The holiday season is in full swing and the gang is back to its old shenanigans. We went and had burgers at Frack Burger, you'll want to listen in to our reviews of those (here's a hint: they were good). We also revisited one of our favorite shops in town, Other World Games & Comics, first some good old fashioned holiday style shopping.

On this episode we're talking major Rogue One as we're less than 2 weeks away from the movie's release. We're also talking a little about the upcoming Episode VIII and the old Star Wars Expanded Universe. We're also talking Independence Day Resurgence, The Mummy reboot, Supergirl & the CW/DC crossover event, The Walking Dead, Riverdale, NES Classic/Pi Cart/RetroUSB AVS, Final Fantasy XV, The Last Guardian, No Man's Sky, Aesop Rock, Childish Gambino (aka Donald Glover aka LANDO) and his new album "Awaken, My Love", the Greater Seattle Area Vintage Toy Show, VR headsets, and all sorts of other action.

Also, listen in for a chance to win a guest list spot accompanying Chase to the Aesop Rock show Dec. 20th at Wonder Ballroom. Listen close for the details on how to get in on that.

First off, we're giving away a pair of tickets to Dark Tranquillity with Von Doom at Hawthorne Theater on 11/27 so listen up and respond by 11/18 for a chance to win.

This episode is a little different than usual. Chase is laid up in hospice waiting to die so we decided to bring the podcast to him and thusly we are broadcasting from our humble abode in N Portland. Joining us this week once again is Alijah Lungren and one of our favorite guests and best friends, David Lincoln Mann. We got burgers from Darcy's on North Lombard and settled in to the comfort of our living room to talk about Starship Troopers & Voltron reboots, Westworld, Atlanta, Supergirl, The Walking Dead. We're trying out a couple new segments including The Best Thing Chase Learned This Week and Aba's Conspiracy Theory of the Week. We're talking climate change, the presidential election, the Mandela theory, the gunpowder treason, and the probable existence of aliens, among many other things.

We're also talking about some TV shows including, but not limited to, Atlanta, The Night Of, Mr Robot, Westworld, Vice Principals, Jonathan Strange & Mr Morrell and Better (not to be confused with Stranger) Things. Zeb tells you what he thought of Star Trek Beyond (2016) and Chase reviews Bee Movie (2007). Chase also tells us all about his recent vacation/spirit quest and time he spent reflecting out in the wilderness. Aba's got some video game updates including No Man's Sky, Battlefied 1 and Elder Scrolls Online. There's other stuff. It's an hour and a half so the better goddam be other stuff. I just can't remember what any of it is.
