In episode 102, the crew returns after a short break to dive deep into everything nerdy. We kick things off with an exclusive look at a brand-new solo survival board game prototype set on Mars—featuring astronauts, monoliths, and oxygen hazards. If you're an anime fan, we’ve got you covered with deep dives into Hell’s Paradise Season 2, the world-building of Jujutsu Kaisen, and a look at the new Digimon Liberator. We also revisit the nostalgia of the Scrubs revival and discuss why it still holds the original magic. For the TCG collectors, we recap the highlights from Collector Con Newcastle. Hear the journey of completing a Pokemon Surging Sparks Master Set, the struggles of \"infinite ant\" snipers, and a discussion on the current state of One Piece TCG scalping. Plus, we touch on Gundam TCG Phantom Aria pulls and the latest drama in the tabletop world, including the discontinuation of Descent: Legends of the Dark.
