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.

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.
