WEEK IN GEEK: Andrew watches Netflix's Travelers while Dan watches Warner Bros.' Suicide Squad. GAME OVER ALL OVER AGAIN: This week, Dan and Andrew discuss not only the built-in replayability of games but also examine why we replay games. Simply among the two hosts, the reasons for replaying games differs vastly, which caused us to ask the following: Why do you replay games and what games (or kinds of games) those would be (tell us in the comments)? SPOTLIGHT - RESIDENT EVIL: With the release this week of Resident Evil VII: Biohazard (or for those in Japan, Biohazard VII: Resident Evil), Andrew and Dan look back at the game that spurred a genre and kicked off a franchise that is now over twenty years old.

Despite suddenly getting sick this week, Andrew and Dan are bringing you quality audio content to help you usher in end of January. WEEK IN GEEK: Andrew branches out to watch the first season of Syfy's The Magicians, based on the series of novels by Lev Grossman, while D. Bethel focuses up and gets emotional playing the latest game (and last game for Sony, at least) from Fumito Ueda, The Last Guardian.

WEEK IN GEEK: Andrew continues to reap the benefits of this winter's Steam sale with the arrival of a Steam controller while Dan watches the new crowd-funded documentaries by video game journalist/personality, Danny O'Dwyer, called Noclip. Here is O'Dwyer's "statement of purpose" regarding what he wants Noclip to be. STAR WARS GAIDEN: [SPOILER ALERT] With enough time gone by since its release (and now that both have seen it), Dan and Andrew discuss Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and why it's connecting with audiences, what it's doing for the Star Wars universe and how it's really doing what Marvel has been trying to do for almost a decade now. Again, we discuss SPOILERS in this discussion, so steer clear if you have not yet seen the movie (and come back and listen once you do).

WEEK IN GEEK: Andrew plays Overcooked! with Taylor Katcher while Dan watches Crazyhead on Netflix. PHOENIX FALLING?: The Phoenix Comicon has come under scrutiny recently as it became public that, essentially, people would have to pay to be volunteers at the show by paying dues to become members of the Blue Ribbon Army Social Club. Dan and Andrew discuss the issues surrounding this controversy, such as "Why is this a controversy at all?" Sources:
UPDATE: Square Egg CEO and Phoenix Comicon director, Matthew Solberg, has resigned his position on the board of the Blue Ribbon Army. MINDING THE NUMBERS: In a Bleeding Cool article covering December's comic book sales numbers, Andrew and Dan dive deep into 2016 sales by Marvel and DC and compare their respective performances and draw some interesting (if very not scientific) conclusions from the data.
