Loving this pairing. It's a comical reflection of my work life. The old man not getting what these young folk are talking about and the young folk knowing nothing about the past. Fix her mic and we're golden.

Just watching you two react to each others mispronunciation is worth watching the video alone.

RTX should have an Inside Gaming Challenge booth. Anyone who can get through a script in one go without a flub or mispronunciation gets a prize.

I’m sorry, I just can’t get over the fact that someone who hacked Nintendo (the makers of Mario) has the name of Gary BOWSER. X)

I get that the hacker bowser is an asshole, but where is the good from taking 30% of his money for the rest of his life, they are just gunna push him into more criminal activity. Nintendo needs to fuck off with that.
