31st: Ten Men and Doritos

March 22, 2021

99th Episode LogoWe HoXPoX our way around X-Men. We discuss our de-stress techniques. We re-engage with our hobbies. We discuss generations.

Paul and Sean have both had a busy couple of months, so we unwind and discuss some of the things on our mind. Paul is re-read HoXPoX, which gives us a chance to revisit what is great about that series, and why it has so much re-read value. We talk about the way we unwind and relax after work has kept us wound up.

How do we re-engage with our hobbies? How do we keep collecting from being something more than acquiring stuff and stashing it in a box, never to be seen again? Lot’s to discuss.

Do you ever feel judgmental about how judgmental other people get? Then we have a nugget of a conversation for you.

And yes, there is some talk about Doritos at the end.
