  • Best show

    Consistently great, and very few, if any, annoyances (not full of themselves, humble with giving opinions, stuff like that).

  • Do you guys still have fun with this?

    Longtime fan, but y’all are losing the gravity of enthusiasm, and it’s gotten to the point I’m struggling to tune in. Every episode is a bunch of whining about large companies, weirdly deep fascination with ripoff emulation tech, and then some disingenuous, joyless breakdown of a classic game you’re no longer willing to meet on its own terms.

    Hope you rediscover the spark. This isn’t fun anymore.
