Well hello there! It's a quick and dirty episode of The Stage Select this week, as you can tell from the title. That's because we recorded this a day early and I edited it like this was a celebrity-hosted podcast. Which is to say I didn't edit it at all, so I don't remember what exactly we talked about, or have time stamps for you this week.I know we talked about video games, because duh. And some movies because we're halfway to being a movie podcast I guess? Oh, and Absolute Batman. I remember that for sure, because it's the last thing. Look, I'm typing this in my pjs at a friend's house and I'm on vacation, so cut me some slack.

Hello. This is Morgun, the stage manager for The Stage Select. Julian told me to write the show notes for this week's episode, but I am not allowed on stage during the show, so I am not aware what they discussed. However, I would like to say that I am okay after they landed their spaceship on me. I am not sure how long I was unconscious, but Abramo told me that he didn't get around to moving the ship until three days after they landed. Which makes me a little sad, but at least it's better than living in the poison swamps…00:00 The McRib is BACK29:28 Julian's final thoughts on Bloodlines 2, Dispatch01:11:06 Justin's final thoughts on Dark Deity II01:40:54 Justin's adventures in home searching01:50:34 The decisions made for Black Ops 7 are the worst possible; Demonschool02:13:59 Movie roundup (Keeper, Bugonia, Final Destination series, The Usual Suspects)02:31:26 CQC (Comments, Questions, Concerns)Theme song and interstitial music by Megan McDuffee: https://meganmcduffee.comLogo and artwork by John GholsonAnnouncer: John GholsonJoin our Discord, learn about how you can support the show, and more: https://linktr.ee/TheStageSelectEmail: thestageselectpod@gmail.comCopyright 2024 Space Monkey Mafia Productions
