Dan and Kris dive back into the SAG BAG

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris open the SAG BAG to answer your burning questions. Once again, many had very little to do with video games, and a lot to do with Dan’s sex life. Great job, everyone!

Oh, and Microsoft laid off a metric ton of people even though their profits were doing just fine. Sigh. Then, in The Checkpoint, well, nothing.
