Has Joseph finally finished Invincible? What viral meme does Arsene have for us this week? Why is the Boston Logan Airport one of worst-designed major airports in America? All these questions and more will be answered this time on dragonball z?
This title is complete clickbait, but we do at least discuss all these keywords at different points in the pod. But seriously, we have so many topics to touch on this week, it was impossible to pick a main topic: PAX East, Marathon woes, Death Stranding 2, Doom the Dark Ages, you name it, we talked about it. ------ #FKM Discord https://playerplayerpod.com/discord Website http://playerplayerpod.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/playerplayerpod Intro Music Provided by Aaron Miller https://www.instagram.com/themillerchild Joseph https://twitter.com/th3hoopman Arsene https://twitter.com/paxarsenica

The boys manage to complete not one, not half of one, but TWO video game brackets in honor of March Madness this episode.

2025 is looking like it'll be a bit of a battleground between the Big 3. Is the Covid Slump finally over or will the video game industry continue to sink into the abyss? I hope it's the latter exclusively for Ubisoft.
