I'm recording you doing this?

0:29.9

We're doing it. Welcome. Welcome to the completely unnecessary podcast for the last day of summer, according to Ian Tuesday, September 21st, 2021.

0:39.4

We checked that out last week. He's Ian. I'm Pat country. I'm wearing the macho, man. Sure. Today, Ian should be proud of me.

0:46.6

On the show today, we'll be talking about a potential train wreck. We'll be talking about golden auction results.

0:58.1

Golden Auctions auctioning off their first video game stuff. Very interesting results there as well. We're going to be doing some other topics and things of that nature.

1:10.0

We're talking about how all foot is if you collect PC games. Oh, no, we're not going to talk about that. We love PC games and PC games. I'm a PC game collector.

1:19.8

Yeah, some people really took that that topic the wrong way. They took it. They took it to mean that like we thought PC games weren't worthless. We never said that.

1:27.0

No, I love PC games. I'm literally just saying that they're not going to be as collectible as console game.

1:32.7

Being the broader market. There's a way less you out there. It's not less of us. Not a personal attack on you. I don't think you're bad for collecting PC games.

1:40.7

I've spent several hundred dollars on an individual PC game. I think they're awesome. They just don't have the same grab.

1:48.1

And just because they grab you doesn't mean that it's widespread. It's not. I've been to all the game conventions the past 10 years and major ones. I've seen it. There's not a lot of out there.

1:56.4

I'm glad there's a space for it. And yes, it's big enough to even support some of its own conventions. It's just not as big. It's all I said. It's not as big.

2:03.6

Is there a retro PC game? There's there's retro computer conventions and I'm sure games and things are in there.

2:11.0

They are. Yes. I know there's a big apple to one every year. But it's fun to go to. It's less. It's less than 5% of retro game.

2:18.1

I think it's it's small. So what did you do this week? And you went to the zoo right? I did. I did a few things. I went to the zoo.

2:26.2

2:34.6

I thought they always has a tears like that. They they've changed the tears. It's like it's like the the lowest level tier.

2:42.5

Which is still pretty good. And then like there's the higher tier that has two versions one with blackout dates and one without blackout dates.

2:51.3

Black so there's blackout days for even if you're not the two you can't get in. It's like special. Yeah, it's like I think you can't go like weekends or Mondays or something like that.

2:58.4

You mean your car won't count. Yeah, you have paid it. Wow. Yeah, they changed that. Um, but honestly, it's like 20 bucks more for no blackout dates and who cares.

3:06.7

Here's the funny thing. I don't care about giving money to the to the to the critters. I don't care. Oh, that's what I. Yeah, I took you at that the wrong way.

3:13.4

Oh, when it comes to zoo, I will pay whatever it is because it I feel like the money is going to something. Yeah, yeah, I will I will pay the $10 for a shitty cheeseburger.
