What if the leaking, the urgency, the butt pain, and the pressure weren't just things you had to live with? Heather sits down with Mbong Henry, a pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapist based in Durham, North Carolina, to talk about the pelvic health symptoms that athletes — runners, weightlifters, CrossFitters, gymnasts, and everyone in between — are normalizing when they really don't have to. Mbong specializes in female athletes during the perinatal and perimenopausal stages of life, but as she makes very clear in this episode: you don't have to have had a baby, or ever plan to, for your pelvic floor to need attention. They talk about what symptoms are actually worth addressing, why leakage isn't always a weakness problem, how low energy availability connects to urinary incontinence, and why establishing care with a pelvic floor PT before something goes wrong is one of the smartest things an athlete can do. Mbong also shares her own postpartum return-to-run story, her journey into Olympic weightlifting, and what she's learned about training, recovery, and capacity at 41.

Do you feel depleted no matter how much you sleep or how clean you eat?Are you tired of chasing energy instead of actually having it?What if true radiance has nothing to do with your skincare routine? In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi explores the ancient Ayurvedic concept of Ojas, the refined essence of deep nourishment that creates real vitality, glowing skin, and that magnetic, quietly confident energy you can feel in a person the moment they walk in the room. This isn’t about another morning routine or superfood. It’s about understanding why your body is depleted at the root level and how to slowly, consistently rebuild from the inside out. Because radiance isn’t something you apply. It’s something you cultivate. In this episode, you’ll learn:What Ojas is and why it’s the foundation of real beauty and vitality.Why skin and hair are the last to receive nourishment and what that means for how you take care of yourself.The four pillars to build Ojas: nutrition, rest, touch, and emotional nourishment.Why eating warm, grounding foods and slowing down at meals changes everything.How abhyanga and romanticizing your daily life signals safety to your nervous system.Why feminine energy thrives on receiving, not output, and how to start softening into that.You were never meant to run on empty. Ojas is what it feels like to finally be full.

Die sechste Folge der FM4 Game Podcast-Sommerserie "Ein Jahr, zwei Spiele" beschäftigt sich mit dem Jahr 1988. Beide von den Hosts Rainer Sigl und Robert Glashüttner ausgewählte Games haben analoge Vorbilder: "Alien Crush" ist eine Computerversion eines Flippers, und "Pool of Radiance" eine frühe digitale Variante eines Pen-and-Paper-Rollenspiels mit den "Dungeons & Dragons"-Spielregeln.

What if your physical symptoms were trying to tell you something about your life path? In this episode, host Dara Levan sits down with multi-published author Annie Cathryn to discuss her upcoming novel Now Eat the Cake, why she started her own indie press Moon Ray Books at 50, and how severe eczema disappeared the moment she made an aligned decision. Annie shares her marketing secrets for authors who hate self-promotion, why a cat is called a "familiar," and how writing grief helped her heal. You'll learn three key takeaways: how to differentiate growth-oriented obstacles from energetic blocks, why turning 50 is a privilege to be celebrated, and the mindset shift that makes promoting your work feel like service instead of bragging. Tune in for an unfiltered conversation about midlife breakthroughs, intuition, and eating the cake.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 - Intro0:52 - Annie's excitement for the episode1:03 - Early read of *Now Eat the Cake*2:30 - Husbands who don't read fiction3:45 - Letting go of book babies4:19 - Turning 50 and starting an imprint5:22 - Eczema disappears after aligned decision7:19 - Obstacles vs. energetic blocks9:28 - Why turning 50 is a privilege11:38 - Writing grief from real loss13:51 - Healing through writing friendship breakup14:21 - Dogs as healers in fiction16:11 - Cats as “familiars”18:06 - Indie publishing vs. traditional19:18 - Marketing background and social media tips23:51 - Promoting without feeling gross25:24 - Impact of publishing on parenting28:26 - Focusing on one book at a time31:25 - Listening when it “doesn't feel right”32:33 - Where to find Annie Cathryn32:54 - OutroRESOURCES:https://www.instagram.com/msanniecathrynhttps://anniecathryn.com/Dara Levan / Every Soul Has a Story:•    https://www.instagram.com/dara.levan/•    Website: daralevan.com

Send us Fan MailOn our last episode we started talking about turning roleplaying into a career. If you haven't listened to that would I would recommend going back and diving into it. We planned on keeping it pretty conventional and immediately went off the rails into a deep dive on, well, starting a career in anything. For a quick recap I think we ended up with a few tips. One, Work Hard. Two, Be Patient. Three, Don't Give Up. And Four, Look for opportunities.But we never got into chatting about some of those non-traditional careers that roleplaying can play a big part in. So today we are going to dive in and spend some time chatting about those and why roleplaying games can be so beneficial in helping you accel in those career fields.Mike, You want to talk about Roleplaying as Therapy and since that was on my list for the last episode let's not waist any time.

The world has taught us to treat the body as a project to perfect, a problem to solve, or a tool for getting what we want.But what if the body is something far more sacred?In this episode of the Vital Goddess Podcast, we're exploring a Venusian way of remembering the body as temple, the breath as the sacred bridge between mind and heart, and pleasure as our natural expression when resistance begins to soften.Inspired by the Lion's Gate Portal and the Leo New Moon Solar Eclipse, Dianne shares a fresh perspective on manifestation—not as striving to become someone else, but as releasing what obscures the radiance already within us.Inside this episode you'll discover:

Have you become so busy taking care of everyone else that you've forgotten how to take care of yourself? In this inspiring conversation, Colleen welcomes Cherie Ashana, author of The Sacred She Reset, to discuss why so many moms feel depleted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from themselves during midlife. Cherie shares her own story of burnout and how it led her to create a framework for helping women move from exhaustion to radiance. Together, they explore how suppressed anger often carries an important message, why self-care is not selfish but essential, and how reconnecting with yourself ultimately benefits your entire family. They also offer practical tools—including breathwork, journaling, and creating daily moments of stillness—to help moms reset their nervous systems and rediscover joy. Three Key Takeaways 1. Your anger may be pointing to unmet needs. Many moms spend years putting everyone else first. Over time, unexpressed needs can build into frustration or rage. Instead of judging your anger, get curious about what it's trying to tell you. 2. Small daily resets restore your nervous system. Even five minutes each morning to breathe, place your hands over your heart, and ask yourself, "How am I feeling today?" can calm your nervous system and help you approach your family from a place of peace rather than depletion. 3. When moms become radiant, everyone benefits. Taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's one of the greatest gifts you can give your children. The joy, peace, and healthy boundaries you cultivate become the model your family experiences every day.

For four centuries, the eastern continent has languished beneath the shadow of the immortal Blood King, the first known vampire. His armies of undead, monsters, and corrupted nobles rule a land of haunted forests, cursed villages, forgotten kingdoms, and broken faith. Once before, the Church of Radiance launched a great crusades to end his reign... and it failed. Now, eight years since the 2nd crusade, a new generation answers the call. Five clerics, each devoted to a different god but united beneath the banner of the Church, sail east as part of the Crusade of the Dawning Light. Their holy mission is simple to declare—but nearly impossible to achieve: survive the cursed land, rekindle hope among its people, reunite with the scattered heroes of the First Crusade, recover sacred relics, and ultimately confront the Blood King within the dark halls of Bloodstone Keep. Before the crusade can even reach the shore, an unnatural storm scatters the fleet, leaving the heroes shipwrecked and alone in a kingdom where the dead refuse to rest, ancient evils stir beneath forgotten ruins, and every path hides new horrors. Will they rally the people against tyranny, uncover the truth behind the Blood King's tragic past, and succeed where countless heroes have failed? Inspired by classic gothic fantasy and dark adventure, The Dawning Light blends epic heroism, grim horror, mystery, exploration, and unforgettable roleplaying into a long-form actual play campaign. Expect desperate battles against vampires and undead, haunted wilderness expeditions, ancient dwarven and elven ruins, difficult moral choices, divine miracles, and a story where every victory brings a fragile spark of hope to a world consumed by darkness. Join us each episode as we forge legends, challenge the night, and discover whether the light of faith can overcome the darkness of eternity. The Dawning Light—because even the longest night must one day face the dawn.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to you heard it here last where we talk about news, you've already heard.Our first news article is going to kill two birds with one stone.https://ttrpgfans.com/origins-awards/The Origins Awards winners were announced at this years Origins convention that was held in Colombus Ohio June 17th through the 21st. The Origins Awards are an annual award that recognizes excellence in the tabletop gaming industry, including board games, card games, miniatures and roleplaying games. First presented in 1975 at the inaugural Origins Game Fair in Baltimore, the awards are currently managed by the Game Manufacturers Association or GAMA.The winner of the Roleplaying Game of the Year is the Land of Eem Deluxe Box Set by Exalted Funeral. Notably, Land of Eem is a rules-light TTRPG created by authors Ben Costa and James Parks (and based on their Rickety Stitch and the Gelatinous Goo graphic novels). It's described as a lighthearted blend of Lord of the Rings and The Muppets, with a dash of Adventure Time thrown in for good measure.The Winner of the Roleplaying Supplement of the Year is Call of Cthulhu: The Sutra of Pale Leaves – Twin Suns Rising from Chaosium.The Sutra of Pale Leaves – Twin Suns Rising is a campaign supplement for the Call of Cthulhu RPG, set in 1980s Japan. It reimagines the iconic King in Yellow mythos by having a lost, ancient scroll resurface with ties to a sinister entity. The book features three interconnected scenarios and, in addition to featuring many of the familiar Lovecraftian tropes, also explores the unique cultural and historical setting (which is a radical departure from the traditional 1920s setting of New England).But before we dive into the winners and the long list of nominees, Dr. Christina attended Origins this year.

Brilliance of the Seas transatlantic cruise review. Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Seas takes center stage this week as John shares his 23-night back-to-back cruise from Barcelona to Boston. The cruise combined an eight-night Western Europe sailing with a 15-night transatlantic cruise featuring Iceland, Greenland, Scotland, Portugal, Spain, and Atlantic Canadian maritimes. He discusses the ship's classic Radiance-class design, oceanview cabin, dining, entertainment, rough seas, and why Brilliance remains a favorite despite being more than 20 years old. Plus, hear what it's like to visit the Blue Lagoon, chase the Northern Lights, explore Greenland's remote villages, and whether a transatlantic cruise is worth adding to your bucket list.

For years we've been told that resilience is the answer.Build resilience.Become stronger.Bounce back.And while resilience has served us beautifully, what if it was never meant to be the destination?In this deeply personal episode, I share the philosophy that has quietly been weaving itself through my work for years—a way of living I now call The Venusian Revolution.This isn't about rejecting resilience.It's about discovering what resilience has been preparing us for.A life that is not only healed...But fully alive.Together we'll explore the movement from fixing to remembering, from striving to relationship, and from simply surviving to becoming exquisitely available to life itself.Because healing is part of the journey.But aliveness is the destination.✨ In this episode, we explore:

Beloved, this is our last installment of Empathica's Journey through the Emotional Circuits.When was the last time you laughed—really laughed?I'm a night owl, and I spend time in a few communities on X. Late at night, we shake off the day's stress, step out of conversing about current day issues and economics and joke around, and laugh until it hurts.Maybe you have a few people in your life who can pull real laughter out of you. Or a show you go back to when you need a deep, belly laugh.Every time I laugh so hard that I can barely breathe, I'm reminded of how rarely I laugh at all.Capricorn's take life too damn serious. Guilty!So…..When was the last time you did something purely for the joy of it—without a productive purpose, without justification, without that voice in your head whispering…Who do you think you are?There was a part of you that was born knowing how to play.A child who danced without choreography. Who imagined entire worlds before breakfast. Who expressed joy as naturally as breathing.And somewhere along the way — through criticism, through responsibilities that came too soon, through a world that valued output over aliveness — that part of you was told to sit down and be serious.Your play circuit — the neurological system responsible for joy, creativity, bonding, and spontaneity — didn't die.It went into hiding. It's still there, beneath the productivity guilt and the fear of being seen as foolish.Still waiting.And if you've been wondering why rest doesn't actually restore you, why weekends feel like another obligation, why joy feels like something other people get to have — this is why.Let me explain how this works.The play circuit lives in the interplay between your limbic system (emotion) and prefrontal cortex (thinking).When activated, it releases endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine — the neurochemistry of happiness, creativity, and social bonding.In children, this system develops trust, resilience, and flexibility.In adults, it sustains innovation, intimacy, and mental health.It is not a luxury. It is a biological necessity.But when trauma enters childhood — when joy was interrupted, when lightness was punished, when the environment required seriousness for survival — the play circuit shuts down.The brain learns: Happiness is dangerous. Being seen in my joy makes me a target. I must earn the right to feel good.And unconscious vows form: I must always be productive. It's not safe to express my joy. My creativity is not valuable.These vows don't just steal your fun. They steal your flexibility. They rigidify your thinking. They make rest feel like laziness and joy feel like irresponsibility.They slowly drain the color from a life that was meant to be vivid.Here's what happens neurologically when the play circuit is suppressed chronically:Your dopamine pathways become reward-deficient. You stop being able to feel satisfaction from small pleasures because your brain has been trained that only achievement counts.Your serotonin regulation falters. You feel low-grade depression that no amount of accomplishment can fix because accomplishment was never the source of well-being — simple presence was.Your endorphins stay dormant. You lose access to natural pain relief, stress resilience, and the physical lightness that comes from unstructured movement and laughter.Research on play deprivation in adults shows clear correlations with increased rigidity, depression, and reduced problem-solving capacity.Your joy is not frivolous, love. It is the foundation of a flexible, creative, connected life.Without it, you are running on fumes — efficient, maybe, but not alive.Here's what I want you to understand: You don't heal your way into joy. Joy is the healing.It's not the reward for finishing your inner work. It's the practice that makes the inner work sustainable.I created an audio journey to help you begin remembering this.The journey is called The Radiance of Joy, and it's guided by Empathica — your Unconscious Emotional Circuit Breaker.She understands that your inability to relax isn't a character flaw. It's a nervous system that learned early: If I let my guard down, something bad will happen.If I enjoy myself too much, I will be punished. If I shine too brightly, I will be dimmed.This work isn't about forcing yourself to be happy. It's about creating enough safety that happiness becomes possible again without guilt, without apology, without needing to justify why you deserve it.At the end of the audio journey, I offer an invitation: Do one thing this week that serves no productive purpose whatsoever.Doodle. Hum. Walk without a destination. Wear something ridiculous in your own home.Let five minutes exist without optimization.Notice what arises — the guilt, the discomfort, the strange unfamiliarity of unearned pleasure — and let it pass through you like weather.You don't have to fix it. You just have to notice it. And in that noticing, you are already loosening the vow.If you want to go deeper — if you're ready to explore which productivity contracts are keeping your radiance contained — I invite you to explore the full Oracle Journey.This work isn't about becoming less responsible. It's about restoring access to the full spectrum of your aliveness — including the part that knows how to sparkle for no reason at all.Joy isn't the reward for finishing your healing, love. Joy is the healing.KassandraAGAIN: Tap into a AUDIO JOURNEY into the JOY CIRCUIT. Enjoy the 10-minute audio journey to help you meet the part of yourself that carries this sense of internal care.

For four centuries, the eastern continent has languished beneath the shadow of the immortal Blood King, the first known vampire. His armies of undead, monsters, and corrupted nobles rule a land of haunted forests, cursed villages, forgotten kingdoms, and broken faith. Once before, the Church of Radiance launched a great crusades to end his reign... and it failed. Now, eight years since the 2nd crusade, a new generation answers the call. Five clerics, each devoted to a different god but united beneath the banner of the Church, sail east as part of the Crusade of the Dawning Light. Their holy mission is simple to declare—but nearly impossible to achieve: survive the cursed land, rekindle hope among its people, reunite with the scattered heroes of the First Crusade, recover sacred relics, and ultimately confront the Blood King within the dark halls of Bloodstone Keep. Before the crusade can even reach the shore, an unnatural storm scatters the fleet, leaving the heroes shipwrecked and alone in a kingdom where the dead refuse to rest, ancient evils stir beneath forgotten ruins, and every path hides new horrors. Will they rally the people against tyranny, uncover the truth behind the Blood King's tragic past, and succeed where countless heroes have failed? Inspired by classic gothic fantasy and dark adventure, The Dawning Light blends epic heroism, grim horror, mystery, exploration, and unforgettable roleplaying into a long-form actual play campaign. Expect desperate battles against vampires and undead, haunted wilderness expeditions, ancient dwarven and elven ruins, difficult moral choices, divine miracles, and a story where every victory brings a fragile spark of hope to a world consumed by darkness.

Send us Fan MailI was sixteen years old in 1985, sitting around a table with a group of friends, a pile of dice, some character sheets, and a copy of the James Bond 007 roleplaying game.Now, I'd seen the movies. I'd watched Bond race across exotic locations, escape impossible situations, and somehow always come out on top. But that day was different. We weren't watching James Bond. We were James Bond.I still remember the adventure taking us through the famous speedboat chase from Live and Let Die. The GM described the engines roaring to life. The water spraying across the deck. The bad guys closing in behind us. Every turn of the river felt dangerous. Every die roll mattered.What sticks with me all these years later isn't whether we followed the movie exactly. Honestly, I couldn't tell you. What I remember is the feeling. The excitement around the table. The tension as we tried to stay one step ahead of our pursuers. The laughter when something went wrong. The cheers when a crazy plan actually worked.For a few hours, a bunch of teenagers in the Midwest weren't sitting around a table anymore. We were spies. We were secret agents. We were caught up in a world of danger, intrigue, and adventure.And that's the thing about espionage as a genre. At its best, it makes you feel clever. It makes you feel like information matters. It creates suspense not because of what you know, but because of what you don't know. Who can you trust? Who's lying? What's really going on behind the scenes?The older I get and the more games I run, the more I realize just how powerful those ideas are. Whether you're running fantasy, science fiction, horror, or historical games, espionage elements can elevate a campaign in ways that few other genres can.So today, we're going to talk about the espionage genre. We'll look at where it came from, some of the movies, books, television shows, and games that helped define it, and the key ingredients that make spy stories so compelling. Most importantly, we'll discuss how you can bring those elements into your own tabletop roleplaying games to create adventures filled with mystery, intrigue, tension, and unforgettable moments.Because sometimes the most exciting thing at the table isn't defeating the villain.It's discovering who the villain really is.Mike, do you have any specific memories of your favorite espionage movie?

We discussed the Diamond Comics bankruptcy and the possible fallout from that in a previous episode of You Heard it Here Last, but it looks like the ripple effects are starting to kick in.Piazo states they lost over 2 million dollars in 2025 due to the seizure of their books being held by Diamond Comics on consignment. And the layoffs as well as other cutbacks are temporary until they can start to see some profitability.2 million bucks in our industry aint chump change.

In this episode, Leah Piper and Dr. Willow Brown open up about feeling undesirable in a long-term relationships, the sneaky ways aging, body changes, and dating app rejection chip away at our sense of being wanted, and why the fix starts inside you, not outside. They get real about menopause and hormones, spouses who stop initiating, ghosting culture, and the vulnerability it takes to ask a partner what do you still love about me. From there they hand you real tools: mirror work, movement, nature, and the practice of choosing yourself first instead of waiting to be chosen. This is a conversation about reigniting desire and remembering that radiance was never about your reflection. It was always coming from inside you.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS♥ Feeling undesirable often comes from body changes, aging, or just drifting in a long relationship. None of that means you're unlovable.♥ Stop waiting to be chosen. Choose yourself first.♥ Change your state to change your desire. Mirror work, movement, and time in nature bring you back into your body.♥ You're most magnetic in your genius zone. Notice when someone you love is glowing, and tell them.♥ Radiance comes from the inside out. The most attractive people aren't perfect. They're lit up from within.LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND ON THE WEBSITE: https://www.sexreimagined.com/blog/feel-desired-againErotic Polarity Online Masterclass - Join us July 29th for a live masterclass on zoom.

What if one of the most overlooked gateways to vitality, radiance, pleasure, emotional fluidity, and our capacity to receive has been waiting beneath the heart all along?In this episode of The Vital Goddess Podcast, we explore the diaphragm through a deeply feminine lens—as The Tidekeeper Within.Together we'll explore how years of responsibility, stress, held emotions, and adaptation can subtly shape our breathing patterns, influence our relationship with pleasure, and impact our ability to feel fully alive, expressed, and at home within ourselves.This is not breathwork as optimization.Not breathwork as damage control.Not breathwork simply to regulate ourselves enough to return to productivity.This is sensual breathwork.Breath as relationship.Breath as remembrance.Breath as a bridge back into the body.A way of rewilding the breath and restoring the body's innate ocean rhythm.Because when we breathe like the ocean...we remember.

Global Reverberations of Palestinian Historical Trauma: A SAND Community Gathering with Dr. Samah Jabr, Dr. Gabor Maté & Dr. Jennifer Mullan, facilitated by Dr. Jess Ghannam Join us for a conversation marking the book launch of Radiance and Pain in Resilience, a powerful collection of essays by Palestinian psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and internationally respected mental health advocate Dr. Samah Jabr. We are gathering in the midst of genocide. The massive, deliberate traumatization of an entire people, cheered, funded, and shielded from accountability by Western governments, is unfolding in real time. As Israel's assault on Gaza continues to annihilate bodies, families, and entire lineages, this conversation refuses to look away. It asks what it is to tend to the psyche under conditions of systematic destruction. Drawing on decades of clinical practice, political analysis, and lived experience under occupation, Dr. Jabr examines the psychological consequences of colonization, displacement, and historical trauma on the Palestinian people. Through personal reflections, case studies, and cultural critique, she challenges dominant Western paradigms of mental health and offers a decolonial, psycho-spiritual framework rooted in dignity, collective care, resistance, and truth. Proceeds from this conversation go directly to Project Hope Palestine, supporting 500 orphaned children living at Al-Baraka orphan camp in Gaza. Guests Dr. Samah Jabr is a psychiatrist practicing in Palestine, serving communities in East Jerusalem and the West Bank. She was formerly Head of the Mental Health Unit within the Palestinian Ministry of Health and is an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at George Washington University. She is the author of several books including Behind the Frontlines, Sumud, Sumud in Times of Genocide, and most recently Radiance in Pain and Resilience: The Global Reverberations of Palestinian Historical Trauma.

Send us Fan MailHave you ever had this awkward moment in your roleplaying game?“As you turn the corner you come face to face with an animated walking corpse! Give me a Fright Check”“Uh, this game doesn't have fright checks.”“What, Seriously…hang on, surely it has a mechanic…crap.”If so, then you are not alone. I pretty much pulled that dialogue word for word out of one of the games I was running.The more games you play the more you learn about game systems, what works, what doesn't work, and more specifically what you like. Now I am a fan of playing a variety of systems. We change games up a lot, not just because I like to try new genre's but because I want to try new systems and over the years I have found a few mechanics that I think are just amazing.On this episode we are going to talk about our Favorite Mechanics in roleplaying games. The little things that we might take for granted originally but as we move from game to game we realize we can't live without them.Mike, Chistina and I are going take turns revealing our favorite game mechanics, what game they came from, or at least what game we first encountered them, and why we think they are the bomb.Let's just dive right into this one.Mike, give me one of your favorite game mechanics that you just can't live without.

What's really influencing how we age? And what daily signals is your body receiving that may be accelerating aging or supporting repair?In this episode, I explore the deeper biological factors that influence healthy aging, skin health, and radiance.

Jupiter is the planet of expansion, and as it moves into Leo, the sign of radiance, creativity, courage, and joy, it invites us to ask a powerful question: How are you ready to expand your radiance? In this special four-part astrology series, recorded live inside Star Powered Circle, Leslie Tagorda explores what Jupiter in Leo means for leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers who are ready to make their mark. Together, we explore how this transit can amplify your visibility, creativity, confidence, and leadership, while uncovering the beliefs that may be keeping you from fully stepping into your brilliance. Jupiter expands whatever it touches, and Leo reminds us that our light is meant to be shared. This is an invitation to stop dimming, trust your brilliance, and lead with more joy, courage, and authenticity.

The path of war is long, and it leads here. And I mean LONG. Like, really long. Almost two years long, it turns out. But we've finally arrived, we've finally entered the finale of Smashterpiece #50, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Against all odds we have arrived to liberate our people, or more specifically liberate your ears from not having a podcast to play in them. Sure, that may not be as glorious as Ike's crusade to free a kingdom and return a princess to her home, but if you squint real hard you can barely tell the difference. We're essentially heroes in basically the same exact way as Ike if you really don't think about it! Could this be considered stolen valor? Probably.Join us next time as we all become orphans in Smashterpiece #51, MOTHER 3!
