Episode 73 - Brought to You by Convalescence

Week in Geek: Andrew starts watching the latest entry in the CW's shared universe, The Flash, while Dan starts reading She Walks in Shadows, a collection of Lovecraftian fiction all written by women. Check it out here.

Armello: Dan pointed Andrew toward what is basically a clever, fun board game on the PS4 called Armello. Click here for the Giant Bomb "Unfinished" look at the game that got Dan interested in the game in the first place.

Who Wants To Live Forever?: Andrew and Dan tackle immortality as it presents itself in nerdy fiction. It turns out to be much more complicated than originally anticipated.

Next Week: Be prepared for a Shortcast as we lay low for Thanksgiving.
