Cup of Jones - February 24, 2020 - Audio (Patreon)

Note: Apologies for the late post. Lots of edits this week and that step fell through the cracks. L&R!

After a restful weekend up in the mountains I feel mentally rejuvenated and prepared to tackle another week of Easy Allies. However, I also stayed up late last night finishing my review of Dreams, so expect these two things to offset themselves a bit during today’s episode. There are lots of questions and excellent suggestions to get through today, including stuff we don’t normally talk about like Twitch emotes. I left several responses directly to comments from last week's episode, so if you don’t hear your name come up, I might have responded to your post already. For today’s editorial I want to talk some more about Animal Crossing because it’s my show and I love Animal Crossing.

PERSONAL QUESTIONS

ALI SALEMI - TRIVIA QUESTION: From Yakuza 0 to Yakuza 6, only counting the mainline numbered entries, in total how many unique playable characters the Yakuza series have had? (again, not counting the spin-offs, just the mainline entries in Kiryu's saga). JONES - I know it’s at least 2, but there have to be some other people in there I”m forgetting, so I’ll say 5.

MICHAEL WOLF - As a voiceover pro and legend, are you familiar with Greg Woods ? He does the commentary for the (very jolly) YouTube channel Jelle's Marble Runs. His style reminds me of yours quite a bit. JONES - I am familiar, but to be honest I don’t revisit his work as often as I should.

NEXTGENHEFF - Is the laptop you are using on the podcast yours? Are you a Doctor Who fan? I have not kept up on the latest doctor, but Capaldi’s doctor made for some great tv.) JONES - It is! I am! I didn’t see Capaldi’s last season, or finish the latest, but I’ve seen everything else of the new stuff from Eccleston through Smith. I’ve also gone back into the earlier seasons and sampled some of the more recognized episodes. I love that world and characters, but it’s an easy show to put on the back burner and focus on other stuff.
