Podquisition 228: You'll Have A Four Minute Gap That You Can Run And Pee

Two bucks says when I settle in to listen to this week's ep it's in there and I feel very stupid.

Hey Jim, posting this here because I know it's less likely to get lost in the clutter, but have you got any response to the current issues Weedcraft Inc is facing, with bans, ad-refusals, etc? I ask because based on your past work, I suspect your stance would be similar to mine, IE, there's nothing wrong with video game violence but there IS something wrong with this hypocritical tendency to unthinkingly accept heads exploding for God and country but completely flip out over a weed-farming management sim. And god knows the company could use more voices addressing that issue.

I'm still not sure how I feel about spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. I've read the comics it's based off of, so I have a general idea of what will happen, but I still feel like I want the surprise of seeing what the movie does to get there (if that makes any sense)

Jim, you say you have shit taste in movies and singular Zombos don't scare you. Have you watched Versus? It's a Japanese zombie movie from the year 2000 where the zombies wield guns and do backflips and drink milk for some reason. It's by Ryuhei Kitamura, the guy who did the MGS Twin Snakes cutscenes but more importantly the 2004 Japanese Godzilla movie which you would also adore. At one point Godzilla fights a gallery of iconic monsters one after the other while Sum41 plays in the background. The so bad it's good levels are off the charts.

I prefer coconut-chocolate Easter eggs over the peanut butter-chocolate ones.

"I still don't/won't trust EA". I mean, obviously. Trust is easily lost and takes a lot of time to be regained after you screwed up. You can lose trust by one bad action and then rebuild it for years. You certainly can't do the polar opposite, lose trust by constantly acting in bad faith for a long time, and then do one remotely decent thing and everything is forgiven. That's not how it works.

Did something happen to the rss feed? I am not getting my episodes downloaded to my phone

I am sorry, Jim, currently watching The Expanse. Maybe tomorrow. I am going to pee anyway, too much beer. Anyone else: have fun 🙂
