Idle Thumbs 318: Live In The Cloud Now
Subscribe to the Idle Thumbs Podcast at http://www.idlethumbspodcast.com !
Everything keeps resetting, but still you progress. You got the sword, the watering can, but you died five times in the process. The teens burned down your pirate ship while you were away. Your audio equipment is degrading at an unsettling rate. Fortunately everything is safe, now that you live in the cloud. Now that you're live in the cloud.
Note: We recorded this one with every host remote, and as a result it's a little lower key than usual, but we hope you enjoy it all the same.
