"But Leah," I hear you thinking, "isn't EVERY episode a vodkacast?" The answer is no. Sometimes there is beer.

There's a lot of anger surfacing in this week's episode, but it's not about the things you might expect, like unspecified nerd rage. It's mostly about Christmas music, actually. Don't worry, it'll all make sense by the outtakes. Probably. In the meantime, check out our first forays into the world of new consoles, our journeys back into the world of old games, and more!

Some of the things we've been playing this week are probably about what you'd expect, but some... well, there are some wildcards, too. All I can say is that when you're expecting Beyond but find empty space, strange things can happen. Good things, though! Also, if you're curious about our detailed thoughts on sherbet, we put some time into discussing them. That's mostly in the outtakes, though. Mostly.

Hey, you guys. Hey. HEEEEEEY. We may not have played a whole lot of games since the extravaganza that was Extra Life 2013 (which is all archived on twitch.tv/etdragon, just in case you were wondering), but we still have plenty to talk about this week. Mostly it's trying to remember exactly what happened in the basement, but there's also a lot of talk about unicorns, sherbet, and terrible, terrible jokes. I guess there might be some news, too? Perhaps. I can't really promise anything. LIIIIIINKS ...

You know, sometimes we wonder why other people put up with us at all. I mean, it's not like we're very nice to them. Mostly we just plot out ways to scare the crap out of them for our own entertainment. This *may* be related to the titular horse masks of this week's episode. Maybe? It's hard to say.

We had SO MUCH to talk about this week after missing two shows that things are a bit all over the place (which is why my title isn't more snappy...but we can also blame that on jet lag). If you listen carefully, though, you can still pick out some important topics of discussion, like Eurogamer insights, games we have to be drunk to play properly, and REAL Final Fantasy talk.

We have lots of stories this week, which may or may not be related to video games. There's a lot of talk about sandwiches and sunburns and people doing inappropriate things in cars, so you should probably just settle in and wait for the part where we get back on topic.

In the past week, we have had our minds pretty much completely exploded by Bioshock Infinite. It's a game that raises a lot of questions, and for all of the answers it maybe-sort of-potentially gives, it leaves a whole lot more things very up in the air and available for debate. So, after scrawling notes on walls in crayon (or, more realistically, constructing what may actually be the world's craziest Google Doc), scratching our heads, crying in the corner for a little while, and consuming a who...
