NOTE: This episode was delayed since inside it, Sir Nevels and Socerton speculate about what they expected in the upcoming DLC, then the day it was to be published the news dropped. So if you don't want to hear that, just jump straight to episode 49.

We heard that some Extra Sheep were given in the Outback Octagon and that controversy ensued! So, Socerton, CalerbCalamari, and Askallad dive into why that's just silly. We also talk about the starting moves of every Civilization and how we think the patch is going so far. We also discuss tips on getting better at the game, Dnd Characters, Frost Punk II and more!
