Can I vote to retire violence island here, but then surprise us by bringing it back in like 2 years when we've all forgotten about it?

2024-08-25 14:15:40 +0000 UTCMaybe a weekly segment could be for each panelist to find a game mag cover they like or dislike. It was an interesting bit to glimpse these and get transported back

2024-08-22 22:09:54 +0000 UTCAlmost as if against my will, I greatly enjoyed this episode I enjoy the silly violence island showdowns, especially with Alex's recent modifiers. Would certainly like to have it be a continued feature in the show. That new status effect segment was great. Could have easily listened to more riffing on those ideas

2024-08-21 20:23:35 +0000 UTCI'm fine with retirement island. Maybe do vacation island: who would have the best vacation spending the month of August with their Aunt and Uncle?

2024-08-19 15:02:59 +0000 UTCTo replace the highly acclaimed "snake facts" I'm proposing finding weird excerpts from the manuals of (preferably obscure) video games.
