It's true; Xenogears and Xeno-adjacent podcast may be our own dark cruel destiny. This time we're dissecting idioms, unlocking abilities through the power of narrative, expressing surprise at some casual abduction, picturing "Malibu Bart," remembering Hammer is on this blasted ship, fantasizing over non-erotic Old Maison fan art, determining the current villain tier list, continuing our adoration of portrait-less doctors, and dabbling in some hypno-programming. You shouldn't play pranks in an unknown land.
