February 2nd, 2023
In this first episode of 2023, Tim and Lathan try to be good but fail miserably, we mix it up during hobby updates but it’s the same old chaos, and Dave tries to reignite his gaming passion with another gaming group.
Then, we look forward to the new year in upcoming movies, tv shows, and conventions, find out that Tim really, really, really doesn’t like the new Groot, and Dave imposes a strict no Malort policy for our next Adepticon recording.
And finally, Shut Up and Take My Money gets handsy, Geeky Jean gets an error 404, and Celebrity Deathmatch wonders if A.I. is actually all that intelligent after all.
Oh, and don’t forget about Tim’s Sack. This one gets a bit repetitive if you ask me..

- With all this talk about the future I’m wondering where my personal robot butler is. If the Jetsons and old commercials from the 50’s were accurate we’d be zipping around in jetpacks, flying cars, and surrounded by a shitload of personal robots. But fear not, you can now build your very own! Well, with our budget a part of one at least.. Just don’t pull a Wolowitz if you catch my drift. That’s crazy hard to explain in the ER. Trust me…
