Episode • Jun 7 • 1h 16m

And remember... its just a podcast that's a week late! Sorry for disappointing everyone, please don't hate us, we can't take the Discord messages and Instagram DMs of people calling us losers and saying how much we've ruined their lives. Look, here's the thing - we're 3 men bordering middle age who live a life of mild luxury, some real executives, some real movers and shakers in our respective careers but we struggle - BOY do we struggle - with the expectations set upon us by our loved ones and our jobs. Think something like an episode of Mad Men or a song by The National - upper middle class white collar workers CAN suffer and are the frequent victims of existential crises. We turn this suffering into beautiful art where we listen to a deeply unwell, subnormal IQ man "review" video games in the 2000s. There are no online possibilities. But there is Japanese animation. And most importantly, you can't make a black or Chinese character in The Godfather PS2 game.
