Schedule for the Week of 11/07/2022

Hello Hello!   Big November is here to say “Hello”! Glad to see God of War getting a lot of love in the critical space and very curious what fans think once they get it this week. I’m still really enjoying it, just not as much as the first game. Haven’t finished it yet. I still have lots of Hacksilver to collect. We’ll be jumping back into Scrap Mechanic on Monday, pulling together a Grab Bag of games for Thursday, and we’re still debating what we want to throw into the ...

Watchcast Schedule for November 2022

Greetings Watchcasters! I realize we're already a week into November and our first Watchcast of the month is already up, but given that we've got a whole grip of Star Trek episodes to work through this month, I figured it'd still be helpful to all of you to know exactly which ones we're watching. So! Here's every episode we've got coming for you this November.

I’ve been debating whether or not to just finish Elden Ring or stream some more of it and decided that maybe we can do both!
