Very funny love your personal stories, great connection between the hosts!
The cast, one in particular, is hypersensitive to spoilers, and delays general discussion on a game for weeks to protect himself from the possibility of being spoiled in any way.
Then, when he’s finally caught up on his work, he almost compulsively blurts out easily avoidable spoilers for the audience as if to show how much he knows about it.
Should have called it Nextspoiler, never know when the next spoiler is going to pop out at you.
This podcast has become more of a far left podcast at the top they always wanna tell you their politics and I thought this was a video game podcast and Alex is the worst and Vinny seems to be coming more and more like that.
Just stop. It’s sad. People hyping themselves up for the most nothing content. Just let it die, dude.
