Episode 2 of season 5 takes a dark turn. We're in a parallel timeline where the nazis have conquered the globe. Charlie Walcholz is our only hope.

We talk about Pikmin, Bro talks about a visual novel he's been playing, and Murph talks about the Myst minute. The variety minute is platform fighters because Charlie is preeeeetttyyyyy good at them.

Then we talk about Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus. An ambitious, complex beast.
