Our choice this week (via a Twitter poll) is 1997 "classic" The Relic, starting Penelope Ann Miller and Tom Sizemore, which is currently free on Amazon Prime Video (at least in the US). We hope you enjoy, and we'll be back with a normal episode next week!

Hello, and welcome to the capital wastela- actually, wait, sorry.

Video Games! This week's music:  Ed is Dead - NYC Graffiti

This week we're doing some 2019 house cleaning, and talking about the games we're excited for this year - with the four of us back in the room together, magically!

Hopefully, 2020 proves kinder, though we're not holding our breath.  This week's music:  Dounia - Love Showered

It's still technically 2019 in California, which means this isn't late! And by this, of course, I mean the 2019 Rebel FM Game Music Spectacular, where we reminisce and listen to our favorite video game tracks from the entire year (and occasionally from previous years ... stupid early access).

We're back together though, chatting about Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order, Dota 2's big updates, Darksiders Genesis, Mechwarrior 5, Dicey Dungeons, plus more, and we read a lot of your letters about things like next gen and other topics. Then the soundcheck follows with a fair bit of discussion of our Star Wars hierarchies before seeing Rise of Skywalker (which includes some speculation about what we thought might be in the movie, again, before we had seen it). 

This week we dive real, real deep into Jedi Fallen Order, because we've got Opinions - not all of them positive! Then we take a lot of your emails about what you're grateful for this year, gaming and otherwise! This week's music:  The Griswolds and Transviolet - Alien

This week's music:  Fleetwood Mac - The Chain 

This week we've cobbled together some conversation about a bunch of games, including The Division 2 and its ridiculous "gear", as well as more Sekiro, more Satisfactory, a little about Yoshi's Crafted World, and the finer points of not being an asshole when talking about video game stuff!

We're back after a holiday, and just in time to feel super weird about this, our 400th episode, and the 10th anniversary of the event that started it all.

It's only Matt and Anthony this week as the rest of the cast is off sacrificing babies to the Dota 2 gods, their prayers going unanswered as they ask to be relieved of their mortal coils so they can stop playing the same game for thousands of hours in a futile attempt to git gud.  This week we talk new R6 Siege Operators, Not Tonight, Gamescom stuffs, and more.
