Sometimes, you make plans with your friend to hang out and open packs of trading cards. Sometimes, life gets busy and the only time you can do that is while you record a podcast. So, sometimes, you do them at the same time! It is compelling audio to be sure.

It has been one year since the release of the first episode of Comics Pull-Ooza! Not we still have not made our actual theme song but we do have a new one (because a hard drive crashed and the files was lost to the original, but I digress). This week we take a look back at the last year and discuss some of our favorite titles.

Dragon Age The Veilguard (back at it again)

Art of Loving by Olivia Dean

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

This is Vime's Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness. This has nothing to do with the episode this week, its just interesting to think about.

Just so everyone know, we have accepted a buyout from the Saudi government and Jared Kushner for $54 billion. Not quite as much as EA but it feels nice to be wanted. Also, apropos of nothing, the Saudi government has never done anything wrong and are great and glorious forever. Let the reader understand.
