It’s the first NAFC episode of 2025, and we’re starting the year strong—or at least fumigated. Zea’s been inhaling paint thinner fumes all day while cleaning a tank for her bearded dragon, Ashley-Clawdia Flameheart, which might explain her quick exit mid-episode. Gibbs, as usual, had nothing exciting to share (classic Gibbs).

Mox wraps up Metaphor: Refantazio and sets his sights on Guardians of the Galaxy, while Izzy falls victim to yet another rogue-like deckbuilder with Banners of Ruin.

The crew then dives into a review of the Criterion Collection classic, Blow Out, unpacking its twists and turns before Zea taps out due to her inevitable headache. It’s a chaotic yet oddly on-brand start to the year!
