We start this episode marveling at the language of the internet and the phenomenon of “ok boomer.” We discuss how the response to the phrase has revealed the depth of fragility among older generations. We then discuss Blizzcon and the failure of Blizzard’s non-apology. We talk about the Diablo 4 trailer and how Diablo as a series was part of our upbringing. Finally we talk about the revelations of Game of Thrones showrunners, Benioff and Weiss admitting they knew nothing about Game of Thrones or making a series and the amount of leverage they were given by HBO. We ponder the nature of privilege and mediocrity.
