  • Man what do I think of this podcast? Who doesn't love listening 4 grown men argue the physics of yeeting a coconut from a tree? Or contemplating the maw of Kirby, the one true eldritch horror. Genuinely a delight to listen to these creative minds duke it out over some dumb topic and get way to deep into wiki pages. And just to hear this in a spooky voice.... uwu
