Description

"This will be a short one," Phil said to himself. "An episode about a toy I enjoyed playing with as a child! How extensive could the lore be for a 33-piece Lego set? It's been a busy weekend, so I'll just write up some quick notes for a tight 40 minute chat."

Hubris is thy name, dear reader.

We're participarting in Extra Life 2025!

For 24 hours, beginning on November 8 at 9AM EDT, we'll be streaming some of our favorite (and farfetched) games to support the kids of Boston's Children's Hospital. Come hang out at https://www.twitch.tv/70percentcomplete and help us raise some money for the kids.

There'll be speedrunning Goldeneye, OSRS aplenty, rock and stone (probably not that kind), and space ships. You don't want to miss it!
