In this riveting episode of Android's Dungeon, the boys get into it a bit about two scintillating games they've discussed 30 times already but this time we swear it's different and also, we've only talked about 1846 like twice, maybe three times so chill.

Maybe Eric Bros…

I'll be honest. There's a whole lot of nonsense at the start of this one. If you want to hear jibbajabba this is for you, otherwise stay clear bucko.

Apparently Tanner has seen like every movie or something, it sounds like a gag and he's just saying yes to every attempt to stump, which frankly comes across as insecure and petty so consider this his first and last appearance.
