On this episode, Jeff and Mike talk about how one day they can speak about Spider-Man for the PlayStation 4. Jeff also finally beat Dead Cells. In the news, Mike and Jeff try to cover the tragic events from Jacksonville over the weekend. They also get into some of the other, more frivolous headlines from the last week.
