Comedy writer Mike Drucker (Fallon, Samantha Bee, SNL) is here to talk about his memoir Good Game, No Rematch: A Life Made of Video Games. The thing is, while it's his debut memoir it's not the first book he's written. We dig into his scholastically nerdy past, his love of video games, his ill-fated Mario-themed wedding, Goethe, Silent Hill 2, working at Nintendo, working at SNL, his dad's painting of Captain Jack Sparrow and so much more. Plus we did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and Podcast Pals Product Picks.

I had a horribly uncomfortable text exchange and I need to figure out why it rattled me so much. Daniel has had it up to here with people who out-introvert him and he has an idea for a reality show. I need to talk about my plucky wine mom nightshirts and a literal thorn in my shoulder. Plus narcissists and assholes and antagonists. And our children who both want to be YouTubers.

Daniel is sick and he's not in a great mood about it. He visited a thousand-year-old ENT and has some news to report. I made a joke at a consignment shop and now I'm questioning everything. I had some thoughts about good and bad investments and then Daniel and I really get into it regarding a certain bathroom situation.
