  • Is this a grift I’m confused

    I love games either names but the short episodes is 7 minutes of content with 7 min of coors light ads. What are we doing here? Are you guys broke?

  • Love Jules and Gronk but…

    … that 15 minute commercial break was a little much.

  • New and Improved

    Having Sam Morril (I think) as cohost wasn’t awful, but distracting guests with C-tier crowd work prevented it from finding its groove. I suggest having season one guests return and cover their games again.
