Hello! This episode is absurdly late. After we finished recording it Mat was convinced it's one of the worst episodes we've ever tried to produce and couldn't summon the energy.

This week's smart topics are about how you curate user-messages to retain fun but stamp out misogyny. Also: How making a game about insurgency set in America can't properly make any meaningful statements about that topic. But, I mean, the BEST conversation is about fuckin' Waluigi driving a Mercedes Benz. Oh Hey: At An Hour and Thirty Five Minutes into this we play a game of Fuck Marry Kill using some Abstract Video Game Things. I was informed after the episode had been recorded that this kinda discussion can be potentially upsetting. Rather than cut it out I'm choosing to draw attention here and let you make your own mind up if you want to listen.

Mat and Martin discuss Netrunner! This episode is aimed to give a little 101-level discussion of what we love about Netrunner, a few insights into our preferred corps and runners, and some general chat about the mechanics which we like the most. We're hoping to gradually ramp up the complexity as we get further in, so this is a good place to start if you're interested in Why We Like Netrunner So Dang Much!
