We were blessed with the presence of Samwise on this episode! And it was a wonderful, full-blown nerd-out. Sam was kind enough to take us on a real deep dive of their favorite Star Trek iteration and for Avalon and Diana as complete newbies, it was a delight to listen to. Please enjoy and beware, this episode is one giant spoiler for DS9.

This week, it's Avalon's time to Femsplain and she's going with Stardew Valley, the inventory management game that let's you get married, and more importantly, name your chickens. But this week includes even more rambling than usual, so be ready for Wonder Woman 1984 spoilers, talk of other cottage core indie games, and of course, the uwu Diana owes everyone who followed us on twitter.
