Summary
The bucket calls to us, and we must answer. We’re doing a heft dive into the question bucket today, but first! We hit some news stories, like “Does Tom Holland Age?” and “Hey, wtf is up at Bungie?” Patrick is also getting back into VR with Resident Evil 4 VR. After the break, we take a quick look at the trailer for Haunted Chocolatier, the newly announced game from the creator of Stardew Valley, and get into the new home Chocolatier fad that Rob has the skinny on. Then we dive into the question bucket to answer some questions about… well fish, that’s why we’re diving obviously.
Discussed: News 5:06, VR 36:01, Resident Evil 4 VR 40:47, Question Bucket 1:04:34

| 0:00.0 | Hey Rob, what are we promoting today? |
| 0:02.2 | We are promoting the five year anniversary of Waypoint, a star-studded stream featuring |

| 0:32.4 | adapted the musicals last five years, but made it about Waypoint. |
| 0:35.8 | And so we would be over here doing the Waypoint Plus shit on the front, but then the OG Waypoint |
| 0:41.1 | people would be doing it in reverse and we'd pass each other midway through and it would |
| 0:44.5 | really reflect on our shared journey. |
| 0:47.3 | But it was too high concept for some people and completely unworkable in a stream format. |
| 0:53.4 | So instead we're just getting the band back together on Friday and streaming all day |
| 0:56.8 | and playing a lot of fun games. |
| 0:58.8 | That's right. |
| 0:59.8 | Yeah. |
| 1:00.8 | Well, was our timing on that sometime Eastern 10th? |
| 1:04.8 | Yeah, like you're starting around 10 a.m. with some flexibility and wrapping around |
| 1:13.2 | like 6 p.m. if everything goes well. |
| 1:16.3 | Right. |
| 1:17.3 | With some flexibility. |
| 1:18.7 | During the day, the work day will be yes live playing games, having fun. |
