While you're on the topic of who has done work for who, let's not forget (because she wants us to) that one episode where you championed Laura working for EA. This shows the hypocrisy of you all really and shouldn't be allowed to be forgotten.
what a shock, James and Larry love the latest hipster game. How shocking.
avowed is shit
Any chance of you abominations playing the Broken Sword remaster?
It wouldn't be an episode without Sterling interrupting, Laura crowbarring in a shit Yakuza reference and Conrad extolling the virtues of a game that's been out for ages.
more lies about rebirth. absolutely shite game. sorry, shite third of a game.
The Yakuza comparison is apt because both games are complete shit
I wonder if you'll ever stop just yapping on about hipster games that are shit
"oh boy, let's have a listen to Podquisition while we have breakfast, that'll be good and fun, for sure!" (this is the kind of thing where there should be EXTREMELY EXPLICIT AND LOUD WARNINGS on the label of the goddamn diet pills, but also.........)
I love hearing Conrad talk about satisfactory. I've spent over 500 hours in that game and it just feels nice to hear someone taking the words right out of my mouth about it. I feel seen, lol.
I'm glad that this episode made it to the Jimquisition feed, because I was considering looking into Boston's Favorite Son - I now know that would not be worth my time.
sound quality is not good
seriously if you guys got a sponser with the emulator thing I would buy one
Steph I woke up may be 40 mins ago and smoked a bowl so im about as low energy as you my friend.
Is it bad to say these are better without Jim?
I knew Laura's sensibilities will be hit with Yakuza Like a Dragon.
maybe jim needs to rethink the ideology he's in. him and conservatives would actually get along well.
id like to have jim as our regent, my only demand is he has to stay in character as the prince of wales 24/7
i blame jim fucking up that issac run for 2020
but all lives does matter?
