But we also talk about Mortal Kombat II — the movie, not the game. And we share impressions of narrative-driven Switch 2 game Mixtape an...

The year, 2025. The boys, Angel and Kevin. The third host, lost in Europe with no way home. So they did what they had to do and recorded one without their lost brother. What do they talk about? I honestly don’t remember, but they had to censor it a bit.
