Meandering conversations about random ideas suggested to us by the internet.

Goofing around with my friend Ines. She wanted to know how a podcast works so I figured I'd show her that it's just a normal conversation. This is that conversation but it's far from normal. 

• conspiracy theories
• how the culture you're born with and the culture you immerse yourself in changes who you are
• Brent's favorite crazy theory is Terence McKenna's Stoned Ape Theory
• food noises because I know people love that, almonds and dates like a real Bosnian!
• Brent wants to go camping with Scarborough Dude and Sally
• Brent harasses Janis The Cat but Ines comes to his defense
• My love/hate relationship with George The Greek on Lakeshore Road in Etobicoke
• reality show contest strategy
• Ines talks about her upcoming trip to Jamaica 
• Brent explains why he started listening to music so late
• Ines talks about her public speaking course
• Brent is proud to be bougie af

Talking about my fun filled weekend, Podcamp planning, local comedy shows and the AMAZING $5 Rap Show I went to plus all the sessions I'm most looking forward to at Podcamp Toronto this year.

Introduction: Week in review

• Live Podcaster Night

Music: Aggro1 - Buckcherry vs The Prodigy (ReverbNation, HeartThis)

What I’ve been playing:

• Else Heart.Break() - adventure game with nice art and a clever dialogue system - but a little slow-paced
• Starward Rogue - bullet hell roguelike, maybe I’m not in the mood for it right now, well made but i was feeling panicked the whole time I played
• Marvel Heroes 2016 - Diablo 2 clone with Marvel characters, I’m playing Gambit, Loot feels meaningless so i don’t know what the point of it all is other than a grind with familiar characters.
• Meltdown - Tactical top down iso metric shooter game with multiple game modes, a campaign, endless mode, randomly generated mode, deathmatch, multiplayer coop, local coop, bosses, progression. There’s both premium and F2P versions.
