You're not just dreaming due to the heat wave and socioeconomic struggles you've been facing. We gave you a promise and we're back, and we won't stop till we're the dominant podcast on the block. (I've had a thing for annoying puns lately- I think I'm ready to be a dad). After talking about recent sales, trades, and acquisitions, Ippo walks us through his latest gaming obsession, Hegemony (17:15), Elias tells us about another enjoyable deflating experience of being whooped at Dominant Species (32:05), we discuss kingmaking and looking at games as roleplaying scenarios with Oath (43:55), and finish up with a look at what we think is the best racing game you can buy, Heat (54:15). We end things with an Ippokratic corner (1:08:17) in which we rank our Top 5 Filler Games, and as always, everybody misunderstood the assignment.
