This episode contains: We talk about our early Halloween partying and old man Devon complains about these damned 20-somethings that don’t know anything. Steven went to his brother-in-laws' wedding.

Robot Overlords: Saudi Arabia has granted citizenship to an AI. The AI is in a female form and talks robotically. We question to what extent this is AI and whether this is really just a gimmick.
