Prepare to gaze inward with your third eye and meditate on the following existential queries:

Is Super Smash Brothers Brawl the most timely topic we’ve ever discussed?
How angry will you be to hear us drop a Lost spoiler?
How is Lee able to even maintain fake enthusiasm for his dumb TV show idea?

Show Notes

00:00 — The usual show intro: Reboot by Optimus Rhyme

13:35 — The Smash Ball is an item that, when broken open, allows whoever got it to unleash their Final Smash.

17:14 — I certainly made one.

23:38 — Anyone who’s actually played Smash Brothers knows this one.

39:37 — Fuck! I am referring here to Sins of a Solar Empire NOT Sword of the Stars. Although it’s easy to see where I got confused, because SotS is also a space-based 4x game. I happen to like Sins better, though.

41:00 — Tyrian 2000 on Abandonia.

45:07 — Paul elided Lee teaching us about X-Com: UFO Defense. Because you are better people than Paul and I, you’ve certainly played it.

46:35 — Check out the “Bloody mess” trait over on No Mutants Allowed.

49:39 — Maniac Mansion, yo!

1:01:25 — Credit where credit is due: I stole the line from my friend Erik Caponi. I expect to be murdered shortly.

1:03:49 — Our usual outro, as well: Breathe by Sonafield.

1:04:13 — It’s a little hard to hear, but Lee and Paul are trying to re-create the famous Dead Alewives skit from my kitchen.
