025: Mario’s Nipples

025-Mario's

To be honest, we chose the title of this episode in an attempt to ride the wave of this controversial topic. This week our friend, Brian George, joins the conversation. Dennis and Brian spoil and are spoiled by Nier: Automata. Michael and Brian set up overwatch on the Chosen in XCOM 2. Shawn plays Spiel des Jahres nominated board game Imhotep. Michael is loving Divinity 2 and we chip in to buy Brian a copy. Dennis defends the frontier from a wave of new titans. Brian says Pyre is a slam dunk.

Brian, you are awesome, but maybe you should see a doctor regarding what’s inside you.
