Nate, Sebastian, and David spend some time reminiscing about FINAL FANTASY, a game near and dear to their hearts. Come for the discussion of how the game unfolds itself before the player, stay for the sordid tale of the boys' proudest and most shameful undertaking. Also, we discover how much it would cost you to buy an intact box of Swedish Chef-themed breakfast cereal "Croonchy Stars."

SHOW NOTES:
