Hey, at least we got the number right this time!

Don't believe anything you might hear, this is totally episode 547. Yes sir. 546? Who told you that? Well whoever it was, they were lying.

Surprise! It's an episode do late we thought it was lost forever... until it wasn't! Pardon our dust as this one has been hiding in the depths of an external hard drive for a while so the takes may not be as hot off the presses as you've come to expect from the HUGE Crew! Topic's Discussed: Propeller Arcade Gooners and/or Gooning Mickey 17 Gundam GQuuuuuX Monster Hunter Wilds The Expanse

The gang finally managed to get another BG3 Day on the books, so you know what that means! They recorded an in person podcast first! Matt speculates on Magic, Ben has been Sleeping on his Citizen duties (again), Evan has Avowed to leave his barbaric ways behind and ponder his grimoire, and Tim gets down with the Rift(ness) of the Necrodancer! Beer Discussed: Bounty Hunter Imperial Stout by Bellwoods Brewing Co.

Well. it's been a while since I (Matthew) have recorded and edited one of these podcasts! Turns out, I'm a bit out of practice cause I goofed up and recorded everyone's audio to my track! Sorry about the dubious quality this week! I promise it'll be better next time! As for things you can expect to hear about on this episode, you can look forward to learning about Nosferatu, Netrunner, The Roottrees are Dead, and more!
