Rob and Brun are out this week, but I wanted to give you something to listen to.  So I did a One Man Show with a brand new computer.  And guess what, my headset did not work and the audio was recorded by my webcam.  Hahaha.  So it sounds different and I will be getting a different headset to use before our next show (or figure out why this one did not work).  I am new to Windows 11 so yeah, lots going on here. I share what I have been playing this week which has been a lot.  Then I share some news items and what you can look forward to playing this week.  Be sure to check back next week for Episode 666 when we dedicate the show to Horror inspired memories from the community.   --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thisxboxlife/support
