We start out by reading names that Dave gave Deanna’s Pokemon in Pokemon Go, and then move into naming Kennedy’s ska band.

Further than that, Deanna complains about her relatively recent medical mishaps.

Deanna’s been cracking down on Animal Crossing on steroids, or otherwise known as Stardew Valley. Also, she smacks down all the Tom Nook hate.

Kennedy discusses the nuances of having a Gamecube when all your friends have PS2, and what a struggle it was as a kid. In terms of today, she beat Thimbleweed Park (which we’ll have an in-depth episode about sometime in the future) and What Remains of Edith Finch.

We have a short discussion about Undertale’s brilliant use of fourth-wall breaks and how fandom really just ruins things for a large portion of people.

Adam mulls over how Persona 5 started feeling like a bit of a chore, taking us into a short discussion on criticisms and how saying something is part of a series isn’t a valid one sometimes.

Colin talks about how he’s been revisiting Dragon Quest and doing a bit of writing, in the spare time when he’s not working his Real Adult Job.


Thank you to everyone who sent in questions this week! Since we’re getting so many, we are going to start picking out just a few each week to answer. We’re seriously so humbled by all of you, and we can’t thank you enough for all your enthusiasm.

We aggregate everything on thelifecast.net! We have Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, and a Discord server. We’re always taking questions through the ask box on our website and in our Discord server, so you don’t have to wait ‘til recording time to ask!

We did a collaborative episode with The Gamer Stand podcast, and thank you again for having us on!

Lastly, if you’re able to do so, give us a rating on iTunes. It’s something that would help our show a lot and we’d be immensely grateful.
