  • 82: Best Teammate Nate's Ever Had
    Jan 14 2025

    Recorded April 7, 2024

    On this episode, Nate and Ryan have invited their friends Keith, Nash, Scott, and Shi to once again abuse the English language (and Ryan’s self-esteem) in a game of words and definitions that is definitely legally distinct from any other definition based game.

  • 81: Not Important Enough to Have a Footnote
    Nov 25 2024

    Recorded March 31, 2024

    And we’re back! After a (not so) short hiatus, Nate and Ryan resume their antics with a discussion of what makes a game, bread point inflation, and musical theatre. Then after judging Flan KitKats and sparkling juice, they turn their attention to the theatre. All this leads up to their main media discussion of the Sir Terry Pratchett novel Wyrd Sisters, where they talk about plot structure, breaking rules, and how to transplant a country.

  • 80: I Want the World to Be Better
    May 26 2024

    Recorded February 12, 2024

    It’s the end of the world as we know it. Or at least the end of the Stillness. This week Nate and Ryan reach the conclusion of the Broken Earth Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin. In the lead up to their discussion on the book they talk about the start and stop lifestyle of their school and some surprise car expenses for Nate. Then, they turn to discuss some of their favorite post-apocalypses to live (vicariously) in. Finally, they talk about a longing for justice, supporting your children, and the difference between cilia and a cat-bus in their discussion of The Stone Sky by N.K Jemisin.
