This week, the crew is finally back together to talk Donkey Kong Bananza! The crew provides a comprehensive review, along with their thoughts on the Switch 2 after 60 days. We still can't explain how Game Key Cards work. At the end of the episode, we jump into a Mini Indie Roundup and give you our thoughts on Is This Seat Taken? from Poti Poti Studio and Birdigo from John August and Corey Martin.
A big thanks to Popagenda/Wholesome Games Presents and GameTeam6 for providing review codes for this episode!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
