Can we turn the video game industry off and on again? Sadly, we kick off this week’s podcast with Cado, Patrick, Janet, and Rob having a lengthy discussion about the collapse of Monolith, the deeper rot at Warner Bros. Games, and how generational shifts in video game habits may be, in part, to blame. We also chat about the games we’ve been enjoying in the latest Steam Next Fest, why Patrick’s bounced off Monster Hunter Wilds, Janet’s extended time in Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, and Rob’s journeys with Quickbooks customer support.

Sports! – The Men in the Arena
While Rob was visiting Patrick in Chicago, they managed to take in a Bulls game. Can you guess what happened next? A tie for the largest halftime deficit in Chicago Bulls history, of course. They witnessed history, folks! Nonetheless, visiting Chicago stirred something deep within Rob, which prompted a bunch of discussion about the future of local fandom in an era of high-priced tickets and high-priced streaming services, what makes attending a sports event great, and what sports cities Rob and Patrick are thinking about visiting later this year.
