We really lean in to being in our mid-30s in this one. We jaw about our various home improvement projects, and Joe goes deeper into how to become a genius parent to a wonderful child (this time for real, it's not an extended bit that uses that as a premise). Plus, Joe goes nuts about pachinko deckbuilder Ballionaire, which contains a game mechanic so good that all previous games are rendered dogshit for not including.
