Summary
Giant Bomb's Dan Ryckert joins the show to chat about being a company owner, contrasting it with mundane life appliances. They dive into strange office stories, including one built over methane and another with a VCR rooms away. The conversation spans from obscure video game releases and the absurdity of Star Citizen's funding model to personal anecdotes about first jobs, shower temperatures, and encounters with celebrities. They also answer listener questions about fast food brands, regrettable podcast bits, and designing dream arcades.Episode description
