I was at a party the other night and they hired a DJ for karaoke. The host kept asking me if I would sing something and I kept saying "It will be weird." So I sang this song and afterward the host said "I think that's enough music for tonight" and sent the DJ home.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

I had a blast putting together this episode and we had a lot of laughs. If you played this weird little game in the 90s, definitely give this one a listen.
Today we released an episode on Chex Quest, a promotional game built with the Ultimate Doom engine that was found in millions of cereal boxes in the 90s. This one was a ton of fun to make. We hope that you enjoy it!

My anniversary stream is being rescheduled to July 12. I gave it a shot today, but Verizon can't seem to get their act together with our home internet and I was dropping 65 percent of my frames. My apologies!

In the latest episode of Codex Rex, we discuss Wolfenstein 3D, a fast-paced and bloody game that is sometimes called the "grandfather of 3D shooters." We are now at the halfway point in our story about id Software and are excited for you to give it a listen!
