  1. I knew you guys would love that Target Renegade track as much as I do. That makes me happy. I tried to learn the actual arpeggiated sequence at the end on guitar. Or rather I did learn it but those notes are 32nd notes played at around 90 bpm and I'm just not cut out for that.

    And a quick update: Since my complaints about Genesis music that you mentioned in this episode, I've come back around to loving Genesis music again. So we all live happily ever after.

    So bummed I can't afford a plane ticket to he live show. I'm 100% confident that I would at least come in 2nd in Mame That Chune. Bummer.

  2. Jennifer Capriati was but 16 years old when her eponymous game was released!

  3. I thought Rob was going to talk about how awfully unflattering that cover photo is for the Jennifer Capriati game, lmao. Not what I would choose for a game cover myself, but to each his or her own...?
