👾 Episode Summary:
Aden (with reluctant co-host Ben) takes you on a gloriously chaotic deep-dive into Helldivers 2, now available on Xbox. If you’re new to the game, buckle up: this is democracy enforced via orbital laser, flamethrower accidents, and accidental (or not-so-accidental) team kills.

- 🧠 Super Earth propaganda: managed democracy at its dumbest and finest
- 🧢 PSN review bomb cape saga and Arrowhead’s perfect response
