Are you hiring help… or accidentally setting yourself up for burnout? In this video, I'm breaking down the biggest mistakes business owners make when hiring Virtual Assistants (VAs)—and why it often leads to more stress, not less. If you've ever hired someone and felt like it's just easier to do it yourself, this is for you. With over 20 years of experience and multiple 7-figure companies, I've built teams of employees, contractors, overseas VAs, and executive assistants. I'm sharing what works, what doesn't, and how to make the right hire based on what your business really needs—not just what you think you can afford. ✅ You'll learn: The #1 myth about hiring VAs (and why it's costing you time) What kind of support you actually need (VA, freelancer, EA, OBM?) Why hiring for tasks isn't the same as hiring for ownership How to match compensation with the role's responsibility The real cost of under-hiring (it's not just money)

Retorica este un instrument foarte preţios. Ea structurează comunicarea, iar comunicarea este esenţială pentru oameni. Mario Barangea este unul dintre cei mai carismatici şi apreciaţi lectori ai Fundației Calea Victoriei, doctorand al Facultăţii de Filosofie, care deţine şi un master în Studii Religioase, o licenţă şi un master în Filosofie, toate la Universitatea din Bucureşti, propune un curs numit "Atelier de Retorică", curs care se va desfășura în perioada 7 - 11 iulie. Istoria retoricii începe în perioada clasică a Greciei antice şi continuă apoi de-a lungul existenţei civilizaţiei romane. Perioada începuturilor este şi cea mai importantă sub aspect teoretic. O marcă a celei mai rafinate forme de educaţie, retorica a fost centrul de greutate al procesului de instruire. Arta de a vorbi îngrijit, cu atenţie la detalii şi efecte, dar nu artificial sau greoi, a rămas până astăzi un pilon al inteligenţei sociale. Retorica e singura tehnică ce oferă vizibilitate ideilor noastre. Evident că în doar cinci întâlniri nu putem devoala complet secretele acestei arte. Pe lângă elemente esenţiale de istoria retoricii şi îndeajuns de multe cunoştinţe teoretice cât să trecem la lucru, vă voi propune mai ales exerciţii practice. "Atelier de Retorică: arta discursului", curs susținut de Mario Barangea la Fundația Calea Victoriei, începe în 7 iulie.

Summary In this episode of the Pay Play Profit podcast, Jess Stafford discusses the essential roles within a financial team for small businesses, including CPAs, EAs, bookkeepers, and accountants. She emphasizes the importance of understanding each role and how they contribute to a business's financial health. The conversation also introduces the Profit First system, a cash management strategy that prioritizes profit to ensure sustainable growth. Jess shares insights on navigating business growth, the importance of hiring the right financial professionals, and the evolving landscape of financial management in the age of AI. Takeaways Understanding the roles of financial professionals is crucial for business success. Profit First flips the traditional profit equation to prioritize profit first. Hiring the right financial team can lead to better decision-making and profitability. AI can assist in financial tasks, but human oversight is essential. Bookkeepers can provide more than just data entry; they can offer valuable insights. Planning for financial growth should start early in the business lifecycle. Not all CPAs are equipped to handle small business needs effectively. Investing in financial systems early can lead to greater clarity and control. The complexity of bookkeeping is increasing, requiring skilled professionals. Every financial decision impacts overall business profitability.

EA Sports revived a community with EA Sports College Football 25 last year. Now, the development team is growing that community by expanding their investment in the quality of life elements that make Dynasty the leading mode of their game in EA Sports College Football 26 (CFB 26). During the media preview event, we spoke with Ben Haumiller, CFB 26's Principal Game Designer, who has been with EA for 25 years.  The first thing to note is that Ben Haumiller loves college football. More importantly, the NCAA series of games is what made him want to be a developer to begin with. Now, 25 years later, he shared his story on how he began working on EA's top-selling sports game.    To read the interview:  https://butwhytho.net/2025/06/college-football-26-dynasty-dealbreakers/

Hey Geeks, this is a bit late ... only nearly a month. HAHAHAaaahh. Anyway, this episode we talk about EA closed another studio. We give our opinion on Elden Ring Nightreign. Randy Pitchford apologized? If you want to call it that. We give our thoughts on the possibility of $80 games that simply won't ever be worth that kind of money. Meanwhile the industry turned on Studio 33 and instead of giving them a pat on the back they decided to point the finger of blame. And a former BioWare dev decided to share a little bit about how the industry apparently sees their gamers as well as his own thoughts on those of us who are critical about the industry as it is now. Finally we also talk about some anime we've been watching and give our recommendations.

Target-date funds just passed $4 trillion in assets. They're now the default investment in many 401(k)s, and millions of Americans are using them without really understanding how they work. So, are they a smart choice… or just the easiest one?   Important Links: Website: http://www.yourplanningpros.com Call: 844-707-7381   ----more---- Transcript:    Marc: Target-date funds just passed $4 trillion in assets. They're now the default investment in many 401Ks for millions of Americans, who are using them without really understanding how they work. So this week on Plan With The Tax Man, let's talk target-date funds.   Hey, everybody. Welcome to the podcast with Tony Mauro and myself as we talk investing, finance and retirement. Of course, Tony is the Tax Man, and if you've got questions or concerns or need some help when it comes to today's topic, or any other, make sure you're talking with a qualified professional like Tony and his team at Tax Doctor Inc. You can find them online at yourplanningpros.com. That's yourplanningpros.com. Tony's got 30 plus years of experience as a CPA, CFP, and an EA, so a great resource for you to tap into.   Tony, my friend. What's going on buddy? How are you?   Tony Mauro: I'm well. Enjoying the summer so far, and as we're recording, that's getting closer to the July 4th holiday, so things are good.   Marc: That's true.We'll drop this one this week about two weeks early, and then we'll drop another one, probably right around there.   So what do you think about that? 4 trillion bucks, man, in target-date funds? That's a lot of dough.   Tony Mauro: That's a lot of money. It seems that clients are starting to ask about them more. Basically, what is it? Do you think it's a good idea?   Which is why I wanted to talk about it a little bit just to shed some light on all this.   Marc: Because the question is, Tony, is it the smart choice or is it the easy choice?   So they were created for that purpose, to be easy, I think. I think that's part of it because... Well, we give some back history here, just a little teeny bit. Again, according to Morningstar, hit $4 trillion in assets. In fact, it says eight out of every 10 Vanguard 401k investors hold one today. So start at the beginning a little bit. What exactly is a target-date fund? Give us just a quick breakdown.   Tony Mauro: It's as the name implies, is basically they set a date, and they have all these different funds. So for example, if you're 50 years old, and they have a fund that they put a date on it, so 15 years from now they'll call it the 2040 fund, and then the '45 and on and on and on.   Marc: Which we're used to seeing, right?   Tony Mauro: That's what you see. And really what they're designed to do, is based on your age, they basically take a portfolio growth-oriented as you're younger, if you've got a lot of time left, and then as you age, it becomes more and more conservative, and shifts on its own to more and more conservative funds. With the theory that is that as you get closer to retirement, you want to take less risk, and you want to make sure that a down little blip in the market two to five years is not going to kill you as far as that goes.   So, it makes it really appealing to a lot of investors with this whole thing. Talk about set it and forget it. This fund is that exactly.   Marc: It's definitely that. So they call it the glide path, so it's designed. But I think there's some misnomers in there. So part of that, but based on what you were just saying, sometimes people say... Okay, well let's just go with an easy number here, Tony. We'll just say the 2050 fund. So it's 25 years from now, so I've got 25 years before I'm going to retire. I'm set to retire in 2050. So that'll work great, I'll just do that. Again, if you're doing nothing, I think these target-date funds can be cool, but some of the downside is that risk tolerance you were just talking about.   First of all, they don't go all the way down to zero. So I think some people feel like there's this, "Oh, well, if they're reducing my risk as I get closer to my target-date, I'll be really, really no risk by the time I get there."   And that's not usually the case. Usually, what? It's about 50/50 I think is about where they stop at.   Tony Mauro: That's usually what it is, what I see, even in the most conservative, say the last two to five years. And I do think people, because they're marketed as the set it and forget it, they don't really look at some of that stuff.   So, while they offer the simplicity and the chance to rebalance, I don't think they're all the same. And I think this is where, rather than... It's better than doing absolutely nothing. Let's get that on the table. But if you're going to use one of those, as many people do, I think you should work with your advisor to make sure that this is something you really want. You need to look at the fee structure you need to look at...   Marc: That's another great point.   Tony Mauro: ... The asset mix as you get a little closer to retirement, is that maybe it's too conservative? Maybe it's too aggressive.   To me, with our clients, I like to have a little bit more, I don't want to say control, but yet...   Marc: Well, that's what it is though, right? Well, so all right, so you're thinking about... You just mentioned...   Okay, a couple of positives, let's do that. So it's very easy if finance isn't your thing, you just want to pick something, and so you can roll, and that way you're putting in your 401k at work, and you're getting the match, and blah, blah, blah, and you're earning something for retirement, great. Okay, very easy. Good to do.   The auto rebalancing, again, another benefit. So that makes it easy. You don't have to worry about that too much, because they auto due, but you just mentioned the fees. These are managed and so they come with fees, correct? Higher fees, sometimes.   Tony Mauro: Sometimes they come with higher fees, because based on how the fund is structured, and what their fund is supposed to do, they may be moving in and out of securities more often than not.   And I think the other thing, too, is a lot of people don't really look at how long the fund's been around some of the maybe longer-term performance. Just even as the managers, because you certainly don't want to buy a real laggard=type of target-date fund if they don't have a good record as managers. But most of them are going to be okay to a little above average.   But the point is to take a look and delve into some of this stuff, because it's something you got to watch out for.   Marc: Definitely.So you've got the fee structures conversation, does it actually fit your needs? So I think that's part of it.   So let me rephrase it this way, Tony, you've been doing this for 30 plus years as I mentioned earlier, I think if you're a younger person, if you're in your twenties, thirties, maybe even your forties, and you've taken a new role, new gig someplace, and you're setting up the account, and as I mentioned, more and more companies now are automatically... You have to check to opt out of a target-date fund. So check that whenever you're setting up with HR and all that stuff.   I think they can be useful. You're getting it going. You're busy, you've picked the target-date fund for the year that you're going to turn 65, but I think as you get closer, and you mentioned this a minute ago about your clients, I think once we get to 50 plus, maybe there's better options out there for us to be looking at doing it. Is that fair?   Tony Mauro: I think that's fair. And I think it's especially prevalent, and we have cases like this all the time. If a person is maybe behind, in other words, we do a plan, and we figure out where they want to be and figure out that they don't have enough to get to that goal, we may need to change up some things, assuming the risk tolerance and everything else aligns with that. And the target-date fund wouldn't be a fit for that at all. We wouldn't be able to get to where we're going.   But in all of our meetings, as we're setting up the investments part, we do talk about target funds. And I don't mind using them for a small portion of the portfolio to start, just as a little bit of a buffer as the set it and forget it part. So there is a fit. So I'm not come off totally against them,   But I think in most cases, especially above 50, especially when you get to the distribution stage, we certainly don't want to leave our money in the target-date funds, because most of the time you're looking for as much yield as you can get for that income distribution. So I think they have their fit.   I think too many people are just like you say, just saying, "You know what? I don't know anything about any of this. I'm just going to throw my money in that."   That's not a bad option. I think the better option is to talk to somebody and to work with your advisor to see if that is the best fit for you and diversify even more.   Marc: And I had just seen not long ago, and I was trying to find it so that I could cite the place that it came from, but it said over the last five years that more and more target-date funds are automatically shifting to a higher aggressive stance to begin with. Probably because the market had been doing well, plus with the bond trouble that bonds had been experiencing for a couple of years.   So again, to your point about allocation, and about risk tolerance, and all that stuff, that's where some of the misnomer comes in. People feel like, okay, this is going to be probably a fairly safe bet. It's going to be a 60/40, it's going to stay that way, 60/40 split's going to stay that way. And then as I get closer to retirement, it's going to drop down to 70/30, 70 being safer. And that's just not always the case.   So you really want to talk with an advisor and dig into it. So do you guys, when you're working with people that come in for the first time, and you're going through their list of assets, do you look into those and see what's going on there?   Tony Mauro: We do if they have those in their 401k. And then we'll usually pull a report just to let them know what that fund is about and what its makeup is, what its asset allocation is, and based on everything else that we'll do in our planning software, is that the right fit for them in the portfolio? A lot of times it is. But if that's their only one, generally we'll suggest some other things, at least for the future.   Marc: What typically is in some of these bigger ones, typically it's going to be a lot of large cap and stuff, isn't it, Tony?   And so I was thinking about this the other day. So if you're picking a 2040, 2050 fund, but then you're also going and getting some investments on the side. Let's say you want to do some extra stuff and you're like, "oh, I'm going to go get a mutual fund through Schwab" or whomever.   A lot of times you wind up buying the same stuff, because you're probably picking a mutual fund that you're looking at to see, hey, it's doing fairly decent and it's probably all around, well, lately, tech, and these large-cap companies, the S&P, and whatnot.   Tony Mauro: It is. And I think so many people don't look at that. They think they've got a ton of diversification in their mutual funds, [inaudible 00:10:08]   Marc: "I got that from Schwab, myself, and my target-date funds through Fidelity." I'm just making stuff up. But then they think, "Okay, two different companies, two different mutual funds, two different sets of stuff. Cool. I'm more diversified."   But often it's not.   Tony Mauro: It's really not. And when you delve into it a little bit, you can point some of that stuff out, and it's a little aha moment for them just to basically say, "Look, if there's nothing wrong with this, but you really don't have as much diversification as you think, and based on how we want the plan to go, we might just to make some tweaks."   Marc: Gotcha. Okay. All right. Any final thoughts? I don't want to belabor the point too much.   I like this thought that I have to wrap this up, Tony, and then I'll let you tell me what you think. Look, they're easy as we said, but sometimes that's the problem. And with so much money riding in a one-size-fits-all strategy, I think it's worth asking the question, are you planning for retirement or are you coasting towards it? What do you think?   Tony Mauro: I would say that's definitely true. I would say from a planner standpoint is we try to get a little more intentional with it, and we don't really want to... Not that the default is a bad thing, but we want to make sure it's the right fit for you. So I definitely think there should be at least a little dissecting before you just coast rather than plan.   Marc: And I think definitely age has something to do with it. So like a lot of things in finance, what you're doing in your twenties, and thirties, and forties may be fine if you're going with the one size fits all easy, low-hanging fruit. But as we get to 50, we start thinking about things a little bit differently and maybe it's a little worthwhile to start really getting somebody to look under the hood, so to speak, and really dissect that a little further.   So, you got some questions with that stuff, need some help, reach out to Tony and his team at Tax Doctor Inc.

As always, I appreciate you.   Tony Mauro: Okay, we'll see you next time.   Marc: We'll see you next time right here on Plan With The Tax Man with Tony Mauro.   Securities offered through Avantax Investment Services SM, member FINRA, SIPC.

Wie schon in den letzten Jahren auch schickt Codemasters mittels EA die Boliden über die Rennstrecke. Und wieder einmal wurde ein solides Rennspiel abgeliefert, welches aber auch die gleichen Mankos wie zuletzt abliefert. Die Atmosphäre wirkt steril, die Sprecher lustlos und die Charaktermodelle sollten endlich einmal ausgetauscht werden. So wirkt das ganze leider nur wie ein Aufguss bestehender Technik. Auch die mittlerweile zum 3. Mal implementierte Geschichte Braking Point hilft da nicht weiter. Doch natürlich ist nicht alles schlimm. Wie immer überzeugt das Spiel mit einer großartigen Fahrphysik, detaillierten Modellen und jeder Menge Inhalt. Es gibt Möglichkeiten für alle Spieler. Ob Neuling, oder Profi, hier kommt jeder auf seine Kosten. Ob es da umgedrehte Rennen benötigt, also Rennen entgegen der eigentlichen Fahrtrichtung ist wieder ein eigenes Thema. Es gibt genug klassische Strecken die mehr Spaß machen würden, die man für Online oder Singleplayer Modi einbauen könnte, und die das Herz jedes Fans höherschlagen lassen würden. Ich sage nur „Klassischer Hockenheimring“. Leider sind auch die Ladezeiten wieder länger geworden. Trotzdem ist es ein insgesamt ein leichter Schritt nach oben und F1 25 ist auch diesmal sicher wieder eines der Rennspiele des Jahres.

This week-ahead reading for June 16-22, 2025 is an excerpt from today's ⁠Somatic Space class⁠ with Renee Sills. For the full-length forecast and embodied practice for this week, ⁠purchase the recording here⁠.This week's astrology includes several aspects that may increase emotional sensitivity, volume and expression, including: the moon's ingress into Pisces today; the sun's ingress into Cancer on Friday; Jupiter's square with Neptune on Wednesday, which coincides with the last quarter moon in Pisces and Mercury's square from Cancer to Juno in Scorpio; Mercury's aspects to the nodal axis on Saturday; and the sun's square from Cancer to Saturn in Aries on Sunday. As increasingly more people are activated by feelings of grief, outrage, horror, and despair, one of the ways we can participate most effectively for change is in how we work with feelings. Conscious feeling is essential to truly transform the ways we've been impacted and implicated by these legacies. A beautiful and accessible support for this kind of process is the book America's Racial Karma by Larry Ward. You can also listen to Larry on several podcasts. For support and inspiration this week, Renee recommends this episode.***

Giles Pearson, co-founder of Accountests and former PwC partner, shares how one disastrous hire led him to revolutionize recruiting in the accounting profession. The conversation explores why traditional hiring methods fail, how skills and personality testing can predict job success, and reveals the shocking statistics about resume dishonesty. Roger and Annie also dive into New Zealand's streamlined tax system where 90% of taxpayers never file returns, sparking a fascinating debate about whether such simplicity could ever work in the United States.SponsorsPadgett -  Contact Padgett or Email Jeff Phillips(00:00) - Welcome to Federal Tax Updates (01:56) - Introducing the Guest: Gilles Pearson (03:22) - Challenges in Hiring and the Birth of Accountests (05:26) - The Importance of Testing in Hiring (08:29) - The Role of Personality and Skills Tests (14:13) - Developing Effective Tests for Accountants (24:45) - Personality Profiles and Team Dynamics (31:45) - Using Tests for Employee Development (34:47) - Succession Planning in Smaller Firms (37:02) - Accountant Stereotypes and Communication Challenges (40:54) - The Role of Personal Interaction in Accounting (45:08) - Streamlined Hiring Process with Account Tests (49:08) - Comparing Tax Systems: US vs New Zealand (57:08) - Final Thoughts and Farewell Connect with Giles Pearson https://nz.linkedin.com/in/giles-pearson-fca-8a175843https://www.accountests.com/Get NASBA Approved CPE or IRS Approved CELaunch the course on EarmarkCPE to get free CPE/CE for listening to this episode.Connect with the Roger and Annie on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rogerharrispbs/https://www.linkedin.com/in/annie-schwab-852418261/ReviewLeave a review on Apple Podcasts or PodchaserSubscribeSubscribe to the Federal Tax Updates podcast in your favorite podcast app!This podcast is a production of the Earmark Media

COMPLETAS VIERNES - TIEMPO ORDINARIO(Oración antes del descanso nocturno)*Link de apoyo al canal al final del escrito*INVOCACIÓN INICIALV. Dios mío, ven en mi auxilioR. Señor, date prisa en socorrerme. Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo, y al Espíritu Santo.Como era en el principio, ahora y siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.Salmo 87 - Ant. Señor, Dios mío, de día te pido auxilio, de noche grito en tu presencia.Señor, Dios mío, de día te pido auxilio,de noche grito en tu presencia;+ llegue hasta ti mi súplica,inclina tu oído a mi clamor.Porque mi alma está colmada de desdichas,y mi vida está al borde del abismo;ya me cuentan con los que bajan a la fosa,soy como un inválido.Tengo mi cama entre los muertos,como los caídos que yacen en el sepulcro,de los cuales ya no guardas memoria,porque fueron arrancados de tu mano.Me has colocado en lo hondo de la fosa,en las tinieblas del fondo;tu cólera pesa sobre mí,me echas encima todas tus olas.Has alejado de mí a mis conocidos,me has hecho repugnante para ellos:encerrado, no puedo salir,y los ojos se me nublan de pesar.Todo el día te estoy invocando,tendiendo las manos hacia ti.¿Harás tú maravillas por los muertos?¿Se alzarán las sombras para darte gracias?¿Se anuncia en el sepulcro tu misericordia,o tu fidelidad en el reino de la muerte?¿Se conocen tus maravillas en la tiniebla,o tu justicia en el país del olvido?Pero yo te pido auxilio,por la mañana irá a tu encuentro mi súplica.¿Por qué, Señor, me rechazasy me escondes tu rostro?Desde niño fui desgraciado y enfermo,me doblo bajo el peso de tus terrores,pasó sobre mí tu incendio,tus espantos me han consumido:me rodean como las aguas todo el día,me envuelven todos a una;alejaste de mí amigos y compañeros:mi compañía son las tinieblas.LECTURA BREVETú estás en medio de nosotros, Señor, tu nombre ha sido invocado sobre nosotros: no nos abandones, Señor Dios nuestro.RESPONSORIO BREVEV. En tus manos, Señor, encomiendo mi espíritu.R. En tus manos, Señor, encomiendo mi espíritu.V. Tú, el Dios leal, nos librarás.R. Te encomiendo mi espíritu.V. Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo, y al Espíritu Santo.R. En tus manos, Señor, encomiendo mi espíritu.CÁNTICO EVANGÉLICOAnt. Sálvanos, Señor, despiertos, protégenos mientras dormimos, para que velemos con Cristo y descansemos en paz.CÁNTICO DE SIMEÓN       Lc 2, 29-32Ahora, Señor, según tu promesa,puedes dejar a tu siervo irse en paz,porque mis ojos han visto a tu Salvador,a quien has presentado ante todos los pueblosluz para alumbrar a las nacionesy gloria de tu pueblo Israel.Gloria al Padre, y al Hijo, y al Espíritu Santo.Como era en el principio, ahora y siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.Ant. Sálvanos, Señor, despiertos, protégenos mientras dormimos, para que velemos con Cristo y descansemos en paz.OREMOSSeñor, Dios todopoderoso: ya que con nuestro descanso vamos a imitar a tu Hijo que reposó en el sepulcro, te pedimos que, al levantarnos mañana, lo imitemos también resucitando a una vida nueva. Por Cristo nuestro Señor.CONCLUSIÓNV. El Señor todopoderoso nos conceda una noche tranquila y una santa muerte.R. Amén.ANTÍFONA FINAL DE LA SANTISIMA VIRGENDios te salve,  Reina y Madre de misericordia, vida, dulzura y esperanza nuestra, Dios te salve. A ti llamamos  los desterrados hijos de Eva, a ti suspiramos, gimiendo y llorando, en este valle de lágrimas. Ea, pues, Señora, abogada nuestra, vuelve a nosotros esos tus ojos misericordiosos, y después de este destierro muéstranos a Jesús, fruto bendito de tu vientre. Oh clemente, oh piadosa, oh dulce Virgen María!  (349)

Stephan Hoda was our guest for the Gemini New Moon community conversation at Embodied Astrology; the edited version is what we're releasing with today's Sagittarius Full Moon. Stephan teaches Science and Classical Mythology, and is the associate director of the Queer Screams Film Festival in Portland OR. Between Stephan's Gemini rising, Sagittarius Sun and stellium, and Renee's 4-planet stellium in Sag and 3 placements in Gemini, their conversation spans a wide range of topics! From current astrology to ancient mythology, water systems science, middle school education, queer imagination and some of the standout archetypes of the horror genre, including “the final girl.” We hope this conversation leaves you feeling curious about your own chart placements, and excited by the ways that archetype and imagination meet through astrology.Every month in 2025 we're hosting guests to drop in with us for some seasonal exchange and astrological exploration. Many of these events are free for our members, offered by sliding scale to the public, and a third of the proceeds are redistributed in a mutual aid direction of our guest's choice. Proceeds from this event went to the Florida Springs Institute, helping protect Florida's springs and waterways through science and education.To be notified of similar upcoming events and workshops, become a free EA member here.***Upcoming events at Embodied Astrology:

It's a fantastic game. But Gears of War 2 managed to top it in every single way. This isn't just one of the best sequels ever, it's unquestionably one of my favourite games of all-time. The gang is back: Marcus, Dom, Baird, and of course, the Cole Train. The story picks up after the events of the first game, and while the combat remains the same, they found a way to improve on it and throw you into so many different scenarios that it never feels played out or boring. Sick story, new weapons, awesome locations, and you even run around inside a giant worm. How could anyone not love Gears 2?? The Dom to my Marcus, my buddy Tyler, returns to the show this week. I love Gears 2 for the campaign, and Tyler gushes about it as well, but also takes a dive into his love of Horde mode and the rest of the multiplayer offerings Gears 2 has to offer. This was as much fun as I've had recording an episode in a long time, and I hope we made all you Gears heads proud. And before we slice up a giant worm, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what the coolest thing I've done as part of the show over the past 7 years has been? Are these cheap emulation devices you always see on Instagram worth your money? And Play One/Remake One/Erase One: the entire catalogs of Square-Enix, EA, and Capcom. Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of the 360's best: Fable 2, Forza Horizon, and Lost Odyssey. Learn more about your ad choices.
