We fully realize that we're technically a video game podcast, but this episode got a little weird to say the least. Before all that though, you'll hear plenty about Gears 5, Carnival Row, Creepshow, what Pokemon is best to eat, and necrophilia...

If you want to hear what's new you'll just have to listen

It's that time of year again, the time of year where we get all hyped over games with no releases and fanboy over seeing celebrities with dogs. In case you were wondering, this is an E3 episode, where we go over everything that interested us or made us mad.

This also happens to be the first episode where we don't agree on the final game. I write all the descriptions so I'm just going to say The Fluff Will Rise Again is the better game.
