SSU Special Episode - Eric and Brian Q&A, 2026
We're doing something a little different this week! We sat down together to answer questions from you, our audience! Want to watch us talk instead of just listening? Check out the youtube version: HERE We discussed the origins of the podcast, our long history as friends, our humble nerd origins, and how we manage pretending to be adults and playing all the video games that we play. We also squeeze in some ZZZ discussion at the very end. It's a little different and we hope you like it - we will be back to our regularly scheduled ZZZ discussion in our next episode on 5/28.

47: Do you Cissia what we did there?
Yes it's another Cissia pun, what do you want from us? Okay, so listen: like, 12 hours after we recorded this episode, the Dev Talk about Roscaelifer was released. And we're pretty sure that a special program will come out before this episode does. Brian and I have some crazy busy schedules for the next week and we had to record this episode early. We will try to drop a bonus episode or something once get the next special program, but no promises. If you want to hear us (or other cool people) talk about the dev talk and special program, why don't you hop right into our Discord and we'll make sure you get your fill.
