Trying a new technique to minimize the number of thuds from Shaun's mic that bleed into the episode, let me know what you think!

Episode 384 - Part 2

Fun fact: Garfield Kart 2 is so broken the only way to fix the catch-up mechanic is to plug a second controller in. They don't even have to do anything but it prevents you from constantly being blu...

Episode 384 - Part 1

Why is it that whenever Shaun talks to me he brings up vampire hunters? Should I be scared?

Episode 384 - Pre-Show Banter
