Hello Valued Employee, we hope this email finds you well! We're writing today to introduce you to our exciting, new, health-forward initiative. That's right, Valued Employee, we here at DT!HQ are putting the Hell back in Healthcare by gamifying your deductible! All you need to do is download a new app, buy a new tracking device, log every calorie you've ever consumed, and help us decide, "What video game character should lead a new corporate healthcare initiative?"

Todd is introducing a new, lovable ring in the shape of old, lovable Kirby. Matt really commits to the bit, but it's not the bit you expect. Kyle comes in hot with school assembly energy, but practices an impressive amount of restraint.

The title of this week's episode was selected by our Patrons in our Discord Community! If you want to help us choose the next one, join our discord, and/or get some bonus content, become part of #ButtThwompNation at patreon.com/debatethiscast!

"Boogity, boogity, boogity, let's go racin'!" - Phil Keoghan probably. The reality TV division of DT!HQ has tasked us with another reboot of a popular competition show. This time, we've set our sights on one of the big CBS shows. After two decades of watching midwesterners destroy manual vehicles abroad, audiences are ready for something new. That's why today we're deciding which video game world should be the setting for the next season of The Amazing Race!

Andrew is doing a Donkey Kong thing. Kyle is doing a Pokémon thing. Todd is doing a mispronunciation thing.

The fallen leaves tell a story. The great Elden Ring was released. Now, two years later, the long-awaited DLC is nowhere to be found. Soon, FromSoftware's fanbase, demigods all, executed challenge run after challenge run. A naked man with a pot on his head was the first to perish. Arise now, ye Tarnished. Ye dead, who might yet go on to actually complete this 120+ game. The call of long-lost grace and a really, really good open world Action RPG calls us all.

This month, we're entering the Lands Between and talking all about 2022's Elden Ring! Join us on this fantastical journey, courtesy of #buttthwompnation member @mgrum54!
