  <description>Don't worry, no need to wear protective eyewear to listen to this weeks episode. This week, EA makes a few announcements, some of them late, some of them unexpected, and some of them booed. Ubisoft finally gives us a release date for Star Wars Outlaws, and gives the Prince of Persia a roguelike makeover. Meanwhile, Disney makes big announcements for 2026, Joker gets a trailer, and AMC says "hindsight is 20/20". That and more.
