The episode discusses various video games and recent gaming news after a week of streaming and celebrations.

This week we get together after a long week of streaming and celebrating to podcast about video games! We're chatting about LEGO Batman, finishing Mixtape, Donkey Kong, Forza Horizon 6, and we get into how Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a pleasant surprise! We also recap the news and get to your emails! Editor's Note: The audio gets a *little* crunchy from 0:08:03 to 0:28:58 due to a recording issue. Sorry!
