Save vs. Awesome
We talk about our favorite fluff from RPGs, the worst fluff, and the dated fluff. And we’re missing Dale, so there’s relatively few arguments. Is that a good thing? There’s also a ten minute discussion of Iron Man 3, if you want to skip ahead a bit.

Just in time for Independence Day comes villains…er, wait. We talk about the rise of the villain as the protagonist on television shows and what that means for the future of America. Mark posits a new theory about the anti-villain and then we mangle it for the rest of the episode.
