  <description>Two of our biggest stories this week are making the internet collectively ask...Make it make sense. And guess what, I'm joining them. What is Xbox's strategy, and why is it so ever changing lately. Also how did we kill cable, only for it to come back. Plus Nintendo still doesn't want to talk about the Switch 2. Also the Office is coming back, so of course that's what we get in the hellscape of 2024. But I swear its a fun episode...come and take a listen.

    <![CDATA[<p>Its Morphin Time! Did anyone else notice how cheesy The MMPR 30th anniversary special was? Also the absence of certain people was extremely noticeable. Mando ended today, and it was not as satisfying as I had hoped. Star Trek Picard brought the D, and the F to the party, but who invited the Borg? Sonic and the Angry Birds are getting together, and Oppenheimer is not going to let Barbara drop the bomb on him. That and more on this weeks episode!</p>]]>
