77: Getting Close but Not Touching

  • Summary

  • Recorded October 1, 2023

    This week Nate and Ryan talk about summer, events, and robots. Nate went on a trip to Okinawa and got a new Synology. Meanwhile, Ryan went to Tokyo Game Show and got sick on a mountain. Then, they talked all about their favorite robots (and robot adjacent beings). After trying a Fanta roulette and a chunky peanut butter KitKat, they turned to their main media where they discussed post-capitalism, what constitutes a human failure, and the importance of a good satchel in their discussion of A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers.
