Since the new format centers around top 5 lists, we decided to dub it The Flight (beer aficionados will understand the connection). Long-time fans of the show may also realize this doubles as a callback to the early days of RHP.

]]>The latest Patron-selected topic is here, and it sees us veering off the beaten path to pontificate on a subject that harkens back to our very first episode: digital vs. physical game distribution. This time, we talk more about the impact an all-digital gaming landscape may have on the future of our favorite hobby, and whether it's looking bright or bleak.

To assist us in this, the one and only Nintendhost LPTyger makes his triumphant return to the show!
