Oh no! There aren't as many games to talk about! This is poor luck, chum. It means we get to talk about our deepest, darkest secrets instead. Our tooth brushing secrets. Our lettuce secrets. Our Wuppo secrets. Oh and we talk about Sonic a lot because this is the ship we're on and I'm the captain, Skipper. How's your Fantasy Sonic League roster looking?

What is cyberpunk? What is vaporwave? Why do people sleep nude? Is Assassin's Creed Assassin's Creed if the eagle doesn't caw? Will Sonic kiss the lady? Find out in this latest episode of the XP Bar Podcast!

Tucker, Michael, and Christian have laced up their bowling shoes and are ready to hit the lanes. The lanes of conversation. The lanes of memory and time. The lanes of surprisingly existent Pokemon Stadium games, the lanes of Dreamstm, the lanes of drywall repair. The lanes of freedom. This is a video game podcast.

While Tucker wrestles with Crash Bandicoot 3's Coco winks and time travel kinks, Christian chases his dream of making his digi-dad proud of his baseball career. Meanwhile, Michael must come to terms with a different digital dream entirely: a Digimminy dream.

The gang throw open the XP Bar doors and make sure all the scratches are buffed and all the wallpaper is flat in this format-testing prelaunch episode of the podcast.
