Degen Hours

I told you we wouldn't dip for a year again. We have your favorite and smallest bean @chromeohnine on today. Also you should watch Fourside Fights. Also, as a reminder, the pod playlist is: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6zal9pPyP05W8UtNosbaEH?si=343a06c5d1aa4b02 Melee Global seeking investors! We get mad about Israel for a bit at the end. We make fun of racist guys. No topic is too hot when we hit the kitchen.

Yeah so stoc is on this one and we swag out. It's almost 2 hours lol strap in. Sorry for not doing one in a year WE'RE BACK Bruce (that's me!) writeup on BTS: https://open.substack.com/pub/thielcapital/p/beyond-the-summit-is-over?r=10j5jd&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web Follow stoc on... X?: https://x.com/stocmoney Kalvar's handle is still the same, but I now have a melee-focused account: https://x.com/dsxbruce

GGs man, close games, but it looks like this one was predetermined long ago by the inescapable thread of Fate. Today the gents talk Mel Gibson's filmography, get gritty about the Serious Issues, bid Shine a fond farewell, and look forward to Riptide. They also fall victim to Trail's audio echo (sorry!).

This is a pretty normal episode but we also talk about everyone's favorite reform-oriented Middle Eastern monarch and his broader dealings in the video game entertainment/esports space. And 9/11.

TRAIL is here now permanently(?) definitely(?) for sure(?) forever(?). @trailsucks The end of melee history will be a very sad time. We have an audio intro now.

Ludwig Gaming Big Tournament Quite Insanely Awesome+ This is a companion pod for LACS top 8. I'm not sure if the concept works, but I definitely know that nobody else has done this. This one is 2 days late and it is Kalvar's fault only. What if you had a Mang0 poltergeist and it lived in a glass enclosure in your house?

We talk about LACS, the upcoming Panda Stats tier list PR thing, and Drephen deciding to hang up the sticks for now. Apparently this podcast is covering a new Sheik every week, for some reason. Podcast playlist, which we'll update and grow as episodes release: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6zal9pPyP05W8UtNosbaEH?si=388fa70aaa3040cb

We talk about how we fail to process D.A.B. with respect to the Genesis delay, whether Diddy Kong has swag, and what future Melee events could look like.

There's a new TV in town. Is it OP to play Melee without getting debilitating arthritis? Does Nintendo really want to take TOs to court? Has Fiction manipulated the Tweeters? and more.
