A combination of heatwave and malfunctioning air conditioning has created a situation in which WE CANNOT RECORD TONIGHT. Luckily, we once again press our other-dimensional counterparts into service. So we don’t know what they said, or what questions were chosen. We just know that, once again, evil has saved the day. Enjoy!

We get into a lot of stuff about our childhood here. Which mostly means TV. Yeah, we talk a lot about TV. But also books and movies. But mostly, it’s about how we grew up, and how seemingly innocuous media formed the people we are today. Also, we analyze wit. And we solve some great confusion from an early episode, regarding Hispanic headgear. Enjoy!

We had to settle on this title out of several choices, because this was the only one without a swear word. William saw a movie! So we talk about that for awhile. Also, an impassioned plea for more emails! Then some discussion of cryptocurrencies, and a scathing skewering of the Matrix trilogy. Take that, previous decade! Enjoy!
