Podquisition Episode 41: Metal Gear Naked Dad

1:00:00 - Of course they'd care about their reputations. Putting aside the usual argument of long-term profit losses from eroding customer loyalty, they have to for one other important reason: the talent they're able to hire. After all, where would you prefer to work? At a company voted "worst in America" twice in a row, or one that's NOT that? At a company that treats its employees like useless drones to be discarded at a moment's notice, or a place where you suspect you'll be treated as a person who has some value to contribute if given a chance? The top talent out there certainly knows, and the larger companies in the industry know that they know, and that they pay attention to stuff like this. So if they want to *keep* doing this thing that makes them lots of money, they need to continue to hire that top talent, so they need to try and curtail negative reputation that would drive away top talent. Unless they want to go the EA route of just buying all the places top talent work at in the hopes that some of them will be too desperate for a job in gaming to eventually leave for other companies.

Between Slag knocking down the door and saying "Excuse me" to the guard as he walked over him and the Sharkicons bowing like "We're not worthy!!" it was one of the funniest scenes in the movie.

On the mention of interbreeding among the races of the Elderscolls I checked the unoffical elderscolls pages and found a mention in the lore section from the book "The Bretons: Mongrels or Paragons?", and I quote 'That Men and Mer can interbreed has been known since the first humans began arriving on the shores of Tamriel in the middle of the Merethic Era. However, broad intermingling of Elves and humans only occurred in the far northwest of the continent, giving rise to the race of Men known as the Bretons.'

"Metal Gear Naked Dad", huh. You guys would manage to find some way to talk about a Hideo Kojima game and make it weird.
