This week, Sam and Cole discuss the questions they have surrounding (what we assume to be) the game's main trio: Sam, Fragile, and Amelie. We get into some crazy train thoughts and set up some slap bets? Who knows anymore.

Hello there, you amazing humans!
So, we made a mistake... we reached out through the Discord chat channel asking for questions for an upcoming interview episode (see the header image... HINT HINT), but we did NOT make a post calling for your questions. This is not cool. We apologize.
However, we want to give you guys ample time to submit interview questions for our next interview—which you can see in the post title!
Let us know as soon as you have questions and we'll be sure to ask Mr. Lurie.
All the best,
Alessio

To commemorate the release of Final Fantasy VIII Remastered AND celebrate our trip to Renton City Retro 2019, we put together the following trailer. Full video coming soon to MetalGearMondays.com and this Patreon page.
Special thanks to Isaac, Sam, David Hayter, Cam Clarke, and the entire Renton City Retro crew. We’re sorry for ruining your beautiful music, Nobuo Uematsu.
**SIDE-NOTE**
Apologies if we've been radio silent on new Patreon-specific posts as of late. I (Alessio) was out of the country due to a loss in my family overseas and there has been a whole hell of a lot happening with the full MGM crew's schedules these past few weeks. Posts will start to rev back up again in the very near future.

Apologies for the delay in an upload for this week. Alessio has been ravaged by a cross-country move, a certain little Shiba Inu was sick this week, and so much more.

2019-08-01 15:47:40 +0000 UTC View PostWhere Is the Latest Patriot Club and Let's Play?
Just so that we don't leave you guys hanging, I just wanted to let everyone know that Patriot Club and the Let's Play videos will recommence soon. The last PC was meant to be recorded last night, but life has been getting in the way, just a bit.
As I finalize my move to NYC, and officially move-in on the 23rd, we'll get everything fired back up. You can expect some great new interview episodes in the Early Feed in the coming days, but as far as recording new material, we're a little tight for time at the moment.
We really appreciate everyone's patience, and please let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.
Much love from all of us to you, and once this move is complete there'll be some fantastic new content in the mix—potentially including a whole new Patreon-exclusive show for the $2+ crowd. More on that soon!

Monthly Google Hangouts Update
To all of our $25+ Patrons, we're considering setting a more solid (he, he) Google Hangouts recurring date. Just as a quick pulse check—how would everyone feel about the 3rd Saturday of every month?
We can set a recurring calendar invite—we'll just use the email addresses associated with your Patreon accounts.
Let us know in the comments below!

It's starting to be that time again. We've had a ton of interview episodes fill the majority of the show's content pipeline as of late, but we want to break up all of these awesome discussions with an OUTER-OP so that you guys, the listeners, have a venue to sound-off.
Per the new format, we'd like to discuss some Patron-posed topics, questions, and everyone's listener responses. We'll address topics in order of the most-liked in the comment section below.
Many thanks!
