Does Jon really need that gene sequencer? What home is not complete without a gene sequencer? Matt becomes Dr. Matt, Cat MD, and Spanky is really interested in Palmer Luckey's new gaming device.
In this special episode we are joined by the author, Kaila Yu, talking about her new book "Fetishized: A Reckoning with Yellow Fever, Feminism, and Beauty". Topics range from the import modeling scene and the very troubling depictions of asians in media in the early 2000's, to completely important questions by a returning "Quizbot". Check out this episode, and check out Kaila's book, available now wherever you usually buy books!
Buckle up folks, we got a long one. 5 hundo eps. Crazy. We bring back a blast from the past, our friend, Mercury Stardust. She regales us with tales of her book tour and crazy tiktok life. Quizbot grills mercury with the hard hitting questions, and we all wonder if Jon will accidentally deadname his guest? Tune in to find out! Thanks so much for listening for 500 episodes, here is to 500 more! Cover art Photo by Dids .: https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-solving-distance-of-points-2714073/
When you are thirsty, reach for the White Power-ade. Don't think too long about what those words together mean, or how it sounded when you said it. It is white cherry flavored! What exactly is a white cherry anyway? Anyhoo, glug glug!
Sometimes the best way to protect yourself from the rain is a black sith cloak.
It isn't the size, it is how you use it. Jon buys way too many laptops, and Spanky plans his trip to the tech mecca that is Microcenter. TJ shares a "snake" story, and we chat about the Switch 2, Mario Kart World, and Donkey Kong Bananza.
Spanky had to travel 8 hours to eat a lot of brats and drink a lot of beer. Enjoy hearing the tales of a weekend in WI. We also talk about 3d printing, Jon buying stuff at auctions, and check out a crop of A-holes on Reddit.
We were gone for quite a while. We have explanations. Jon and TJ hash things out, discuss Jon's addiction to the UW SWAP auction, and TJ has thoughts on the Switch 2.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is announced, Jon and TJ talk about the Midwest Gaming Classic, and Jon is obsessed with his new Homelab. Spanky, why have you done this to Jon?
It's Borg-en time! It turns out that cyberpunk actually isn't as cool as we all thought it would be, and you know that reddit is going to be mad at a woman that doesn't like a dog.
That muscular cat can sure cook up some good grub. Pass me the bespoke tartar sauce that got the rave reviews online, I am nearly finished with my final fantasy 6 playthrough and I need some energy after spending all night browsing reddit and trying and failing to buy a GPU.

Yeah, that little thing is pretty important. So, don't drink too much Nuka Victory Cola from your giant theater soda cup. Your Pancreas will thank you.

Man, according to that guy on youtube that has a really slick goatee, I need to have my gamer card revoked due to my infection with the woke mind virus. Sheesh. I thought I was a real gamer, but I guess not. Wokesters like us cannot be true gamers, even if we put over 50 hours a week into Morrowind.

Nintendo was wrong, 2025 is going to be the year of Luigi for sure. TJ is ill and missing, presumed possibly dead. We chat about Superman, comic book movies in general, Jon learning Japanese, and we dredge through some really yucky AITA posts from reddit dot com.
Boy, can you tell what week this episode was recorded? Man, nothing bad at all happened to anyone or the world that week at all. I know we record these in advance, but man has it been a while... I guess Jon has a pretty good excuse.
Oh snap, we saw a big red one this year. SOS, amirite? IYKYK. Man, this was way too long right? Needed a script edit. At least we get to see sexy JK Simmons crawl around like a little mink. And look at Lil' Rock, he is totes adorbs.
Jon brings fanciful stories and treats from the fabled city of NYC. Note: Nobody Hangs Bag in this one. Episode Artwork remixed from photo by Stephanie Ho: https://www.pexels.com/photo/black-tote-bag-1214212/
What a nice flavor, to have on the back end. You like My Hero Academia? We talk about it a bunch in this one. Man, those kids (not you Mineta) are the best right?
Jon continues having his mid-life crisis talking about the wonderful time he had back in college. Except when he went to parties and there were high-schoolers there.. ew... Also, just so you know, anyone can buy that mug, it means nothing unless you EARN it.
I'm gonna be honest about this one. Jon is definitely having a mid-life crisis right? Talking about college while his friends from college have kids moving into their college dorms. Life comes at you fast. Episode Title Image adapted from Photo by Rachel Claire from Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/men-holding-crayfish-5864756/
