Episode 56 • Monarch: Legacy of Black Friday
Peter and Scott love monsters and coffee and monsters who love coffee. Black Friday came and went without TOO much money being spent – ok, who are we kidding? Money was spent. Mostly by Peter, but partly by Scott. Scott says f-u to the Brie Larson haters and whiny little misogynists in general. Peter says hello to Kaiju board games, and Scott wants in. Stop playing those games without him.
