What's up everybody welcome to Igen Game Scoop I'm your host Damon Hatfield joining me in the

week are Sam Claiborne. Hey Damon. And Nick Lemone. Hey how's it going? And we have A-Show

for you this week. It'll be great. I don't know. It's the second episode we're recording

is not good. There are lots of pops and clicks all throughout the episode. It would not

I'm going to lean on you, Scoop Nation and your emails are your emails are going to make

up the bulk of this show. And actually, I turned the clock back. I or I have a Game Scoop

inbox with over 3,000 emails that haven't been read on the show yet. And I started them

by old. You read each one. That's the important thing. Yeah. I read each one. And then I I

tucked them away if I want to use them at some point. So I the oldest ones are from November
