Although it would be more thematically appropriate of us to NOT tell you about this week’s episode, we are going to be rebellious and do it anyway—sans mohawk and safety pins.  Andrew joins Ben this week to ruminate over the work punk.  After discussing what they have been up to, debating the importance of a thesis statement (or lack thereof), and sharing their experiences with the game they have both (YES BOTH) been playing, Dungeon Clawler by Stray Fawn Studio, they embark upon a sensory adventure together… in STEREO!  Following the traditional definition festivities, they explore their thoughts and feelings associated with the word.  Finally, Ben talks about Suda51—recognized by many as one of the most “punk rock” game developers out there in addition to being author responsible for a favorite gaming narrative of his.         *** 00:00:00 - Andrew’s Crowdfundr ADHD pin promo and the obligatory 2VP theme song Please contribute to Andrew’s latest Crowdfundr campaign and buy a swanky “Advanced Dungeons Have Dragons” ADHD enamel pin!https://crowdfundr.com/dragonpin?ref=ab_5eGT0FGiaC55eGT0FGiaC5 00:02:03 - Book progress, a 25 percent different demon, veggies, and many presidents ago00:04:37 - Ben breaks kayfabe, the Piper Cafe, the Safehouse, price tags, and trading cards00:06:37 - Verified on Bluesky, Andrew’s 2025 call, allies for decades, and Bash the alarm clock00:09:25 - Thoughts on the thesis, eating children, Substack review handling, and epic poems00:14:24 - The Hunt for Red October, embargo date debate, and Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop00:17:23 - Looking at manuals, divergent vs. diverse, symptoms of life, and rewiring the brain00:21:01 - Autistic trends, a mom’s introduction to Rick and Morty, and a claw machine thesis00:24:22 - Christopher Nolan, Dungeon Clawler impressions, and Andrew describes the game00:27:45 - Ben wants more stuff, Count Clawcula, thumbs up, and speaking of potato snacks00:29:35 - In stereo, lining them up in post, the bouquet, the mouth feel, and a mystery flavor00:31:53 - Aged in wooden tubes, the proof with vinegar, maltodextrin, and the aging problem00:34:44 - Ben’s bourbon belch, she smelled like soup, the comma, and ten points in Scrabble00:37:40 - The derogatory definition, Ben’s Allen Funt impression, and the skipped definition00:40:01 - Punk sticks, anarchy, being adjacent, punk credit, and getting out what you put in00:43:03 - The Bumblebee Tuna theme in Ska, the energy, and questionable stuff in Tucson00:45:00 - Going to the Meet Rack, the condom machine, lubricated regulars, and river rafting00:47:24 - Not inherently political, Andrew’s Portland punk experiences, and The Young Ones 00:50:00 - The Seattle WTO Protests, moving into retail, against the grain, and hybrid formats00:53:44 - Not Punky Brewster, punk as a suffix, Daft Punk origin, and Max Headroom shows00:57:02 - The Video Toaster, actor Matt Frewer, platinums, and Ben sells 100 million albums00:58:40 - Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered, not Sudafed, and the games of Suda5101:01:23 - Punk Rock sub-genres, Franz Kafka game gets canceled, and Garcia is a Mexi-CAN01:04:37 - Something that happens, expired donuts, mistook it for a Cybertruck, and food love01:07:30 - So romantic, Michigan, final thoughts, Joe saved the podcast, and formica dragons  *** Follow Andrew / Partly Robot Industries on…His website: https://partlyrobot.com/On Instagram: https://instagram.com/partlyrobotOn TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@partlyrobotOn Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/partlyrobot.comOn Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/partlyrobotAnd his TREE o’ LINKS: http://linktr.ee/partlyrobot Follow Two Vague on…Our website: https://www.twovaguepodcast.comOn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/two_vague_podcastOn YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@twovaguepodcastOn Substack: https://substack.com/@twovaguepodcastOn Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/twovaguepodcast.com For show appearance and other inquiries, contact us at: twovaguepodcast@gmail.com-A
