1:00:52 Ben describes the premise of the video game DOOM. You're on a moon base, and they open up a portal and demons come through. Why don't they just not open the portal? They didn't know that it was gonna do that. If you're a scientist, you're experimenting with a portal, you don't think it's gonna go to hell, but sometimes it does.

Ben is Right: Video games let you choose your own adventure, so the book series is unnecessary

1:07:48 I just started watching this past weekend Downton Abbey. Yeah, there you go. Upon your recommendation. There you go. It's a good show. And so there's things— Are you watching it with Des? She's already seen it, so I'm just watching it alone. Oh. Is that okay? It's a little iffy.
1:09:45 Ben first watched Aliens with his dad That must have been awesome. I grew up without my father. *laughs* Painful memories. How was it having a dad that you could do cool things with? It was great, Matt! You should try it out sometime. Oh...

Matt is reading Morning Glories monthly.
