FR 35 Welcome to Earth

The Friendly Reminder crew is finally back in full force to discuss your favorite conspiracy theories here, abroad, and across the universe.

The crew discusses going masks off with the COVID vaccine, predicts the future of the GOP (it’s Trump), and finally resolves the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Gus and Dan are joined by Nack and brand new Friendly Reminder Producer Erik to discuss the Chauvin verdict, Joe Biden’s dull and/or radical first 100 days, and the Matt Gaetz sex crime scandal.

Join Nack, Gus, and their guest Erik as they share their spoiler-filled thoughts on the latest Mortal Kombat movie and go over the games they’ve been playing during the month of April. They also discuss the next project from Hideo Kojima, a new tease from the studio that brought you Celeste, and the return of E3.  Mortal Kombat Spoilers begin from the first minute to the 14:30 minute mark. 

The gang with special guest Erik discusses the GOP's latest attempt to suppress the vote and Joe Biden's military-friendly budget. The gang then reviews FLCL Progressive, the sequel to one of their favorite animes of all time. Spoilers for FLCL Progressive begin at approximately 39:30 and run until the end of the episode. *This is an alternative version of the episode for non-Spotify listeners. 

The crew (with special guess Erik) discusses the games they’ve been playing in March, how to tackle the impenetrable Monster Hunter Series, and the big acquisitions dominating the gaming industry.

The crew discusses Democrats finally passing the $1.9 trillion relief bill and Texas ending mask mandates while COVID-19 is still a threat. Gus and Daniel then say goodbye to WandaVision because “part of the journey is the end.” Spoilers for Wandavision start at approximately 49:00 and go through the end of the episode.

The gang (with special guest Totes) chats about the Texas freeze, bashes Democrats for not fighting hard enough for $15, and laments the state of the movie industry post-Covid.
