- NEW VIDEO: On the Flyover Culture SEASON FINALE, veteran game designer Cole Wehrle shares invaluable insight on how he makes games. We then ignore most of that good advice for a head-to-head game design competition. It gets weird. youtu.be/4swaOx3gLVo?...
- Pretty sure IU has turned off the heat in our building for the week 🥶

- 🎃 NEW VIDEO! For this pseudo-Halloween special, we're dressing up suburban Atlanta as rural Indiana and ranking some of the most notorious fake pop culture towns. This is much more chill than the last episode, so pop it on while you prepare your Hot Lorax costume youtu.be/fn1uWKLcVEU
- Got tickets to one of those AMC mystery screenings on the 6th. Hoping it’s The Marvels! Very strong possibility it’s also some heinous faith-based thing, but hey I’m down to clown

- Should’ve been home by now but instead I’ve been stuck in Philadelphia for almost four hours. Nothing is taking off. A woman is watching videos at full volume and ignoring people asking her to stop. I fear we may turn to delirium.
