Listen to this week’s episode
Hey, it’s Plante! I’m on vacation this week, so I wasn’t on this week’s episode. They talked about [checks notes] Star Wars: Outlaws. To be honest with y’all, I’m listening to the episode as I type this, so everything is a surprise!
… Oh… oh no. I’m so sorry. Frushtick made a horrific meme that he thinks will convince everyone to subscribe to this newsletter. I’m going to include it after the jump to spare the souls of the innocent.

I don’t want to encourage this sort of behavior, but the meme did make me subscribe to the newsletter.
Shocked that Justin thought us knowing the character would possibly give the meme away
