This intro is the last thing I do before I hit the weekend, so it's usually about what I have planned, something cool going on, you get the idea.

This week our host is our special guest, Liz Patt, who has a lot of opinions on Diablo, but she's also here for a discussion of patch 11.2.

This week's set of free games offered by the Epic Games Store are both lowkey, a little casual, and a little zany, but with very different gameplay systems and vibes.

This week's Lore Watch Podcast is just as majestic as the last, with even more discussion of the lore of Jurassic Park.

One of the easiest, most straightforward ways to stay informed with my kids’ schools is social media, and many of my friends and relatives are teachers for a bunch different concentrations and grade levels. Now, the algorithm thinks that I’m just broadly interested in education posts. I’m seeing the team of teachers for first grade in Biloxi, Mississippi, and the flier for lacrosse tryouts in Wheeling, West Virginia, and the school lunch graphic for this week out of Missoula, Montana. Meanwhile, I’m not seeing posts from my kids’ schools or my friends back-to-school wishlists. This is fine.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions and we’ll give you some answers just as soon as we scroll far enough to see the wishlist my cousin said she posted for her art class. It might be a while.

Hamilton turns ten this week, and Lin-Manuel Miranda announced that it would be coming to theaters in September, so I'm having a Hamilicious week.

This week patch 11.2 finally released, and we have the rundown of all the features for you, including the new World Boss, which was up this week -- surprise!

The Epic Games Store is giving away two games this week that are older, but are just launching on the Epic Games Store this week.

This week, Matt, Joe, and special guest Eric O'Dea dove into one of the most influential series for the 90s kids in the audience: Jurassic Park.

I’ve been looking for a new chandelier for a while now. The one we have is hideous and just needs to be replaced in general, but my sense of style tends to be, generously, eclectic. My usual issue is, I’ll start looking at things, and then I’ll keep looking at similar things, and oh, what about that, and after a while I’ve been looking at similar things for so long, I end up down a rabbit hole where I can’t tell if something is really cool or hideous, or if it’d perfect for my room, or if it completely clashes with every other design decision I’ve made up to this point. I’m also a little bit nervous about what I’m going to find when I actually take down the old one — our house isn’t all that old, but one of the previous owners thought he was far handier than he actually is. It’s been a ride, y’all.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions and we definitely don’t answer in metaphors. Anyway, Player Housing is gonna be great, super pumped for that.
