August 28, 2015 – Me Vs. Myself and I

We ran short of any bulky discussion ideas so this week we decided to do another talking points show. This time around we talk about Diablo III, Hearthstone, GTA V, the newly formed YouTube Gaming, Star Citizen and more. It’s a variety of articles pulled from the news of the day, so we’re all over the place but it still ended up being a cohesive package by the end. You know our rants and rambles, so listen on for more!

Made today’s run with Fish. Died stupidly on world 4. Still, my average run is getting better day by day.
