Regardless of where you stand on the actual ethics and claims made in the various diss tracks during the Kendrick vs Drake beef – I would be hard-pressed to come up with a rapper this side of MF Doom (RIP) that I would want to face off in a rap-battle with less than Kendrick Lamar. Like, if I got into an argument with Mike Tyson, I would not choose “boxing” as the agreed upon method of conflict resolution.

 

Keith would try to beat him at Power Stone.

 

2024 also marked the first time (I think) that any of us watched an entire Grand Final of Eurovision. The musical competition that has such strict participation rules that Celine Dion once won the competition on behalf of Switzerland. Perhaps that perplexing win was what inspired the genius that is Windows95Man to compose their hit “No Rules” at this year’s edition?

 

Do yourself a favor and watch the performance right now.

 

Finally, we also talk about the Fallout television series and Keith makes some vague references to how it might tie in to the video game series. They probably do a better job of cataloging that sort of thing over on more reputable websites.

 

Meanwhile over on Garbage Time – Jon and Keith get into some of the weirdest magic items in Dungeons & Dragons 5e – we based ourselves on the excellent YouTube video from TheD&DLogs that you should probably check out as well. We are such lucky boys that we’ve even encountered a few of these weirdos “in the wild” of our campaigns.  If you would like to show your support and head over to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time that would be appreciated.
