It's a bit of a shorter show, but with so many people on vacation it's hard to wrangle everyone together to talk about games. Still, we discuss some holiday gaming, touching from iPhone games to some of the biggest games of the year. Really, though, the talk just devolves into discussing Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Beware the moment at the half way where we switch gears, spoilers await.

This episode is a little guerilla. Instead of the normal thing where we go to Arthur's, set up microphones, and he makes us sound like a gorgeous flock of angels telling you gaming truth, we went to our favorite diner and used a field recorder. No, it's not ideal. But hey, it actually turned out pretty nice, and it was either this or not give you an episode two weeks in a row which we can. not. allow. So we hope you enjoy this week's episode as we order a nice meal and tell you all about Her Sto...
