We have changed to recording every other week, but that doesn't excuse the late upload for this episode.  I (Eric) have dealt with some family issues lately that have kept me away from home and otherwise distracted, but I will work on shorter times between recording and uploading.  I will also start to add a description of the episode with the time stamps:Brad is out with a family emergency, but Lonny really dives into some games he's playing, Brandon updates on what has kept him busy, and I finish my thoughts on Bravely Default 2.  Then we discuss what it means for Sony to buy Evo and what could happen to Discord if they are bought.00:00 - Intro01:20 - Watcha' Playin' Lonny?34:45 - Watcha' Playin' Brandon?51:40 - Watcha' Playin' Eric?01:08:50 - Sony Buys Evo01:18:48 - Discord is Shopping Itself Around01:27:52 - Goals
