Episode 129: Live, Laugh, Lekgolo
Workers' rights and labor unions have been dominating the headlines in the US for the last few months. While that is probably the most culturally relative sentence we've ever put in our shownotes, it is also the sentence that inspired today's dumb bit. In an effort to prove that we are, in fact, a pro-union podcast, we're helping video game characters organize. So settle in for your union-mandated break and listen along as we answer the question "What group of video game characters should be the next to unionize?"
All three answers today force us to define what a "manager" is. Todd talks more about Voltron than you'd expect. Andrew is really committing to a bit within a bit. Kyle comes to the table to represent the population of our favorite sovereign nation.
