Episode 110 (12/01/08) – Gone Home for the Holidays

We actually recorded this show last week, mere days after the recording of Episode 109. So you’ll have to excuse the fact we really don’t talk about anything new and the show quickly devolves into discussion of DVDs and The Real Ghostbusters. But we do get some talk in about Animal Crossing City Folk, Sonic Unleashed and Rock Band 2. Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. We’ll be back with a “real” show next week!
