01:09:15

44:10

80: Skeletor Charisma

Since an AI writing Scrubs scripts is clearly ushering in the end of civilization, we decide to spend all our cash on loot boxes. (It seemed like a good plan at the time.)

09-11
55:08

73: Scuba Sausage Festival

We reject the new VR dating show because of its embarrassing lack of Borg integration, shark drones, and coconut related fatalities. (But the new Star Wars toys are pretty cool.)

01:10:26

This week, we take a tour of all the horrors of the internet, where we drive an Apple designed car while wearing an internet connected shock bracelet, and decide whether we'd rather be murdered by AI robots or live in the stomach of Yoshi.
