Episode 149 - Transition

Cheyenne joins Ben this week to talk about the myriad changes they both have been going through since his last appearance on the show. After a little bit of work-centric catch-up, they switch it up by front-loading the program with the video game chat a little earlier than usual. Cheyenne has been playing Fields of Mistria, Ben has been playing HAMSTERMIND, and they both have thoughts they are eager to share about these titles. Then by way of the definition, they TRANSITION into a more philosophical and anecdote-filled discussion about life, learning, the rise of PC usage, and current communication trends before closing the show with their final thoughts.
