Building a thriving business isn't always about rapid expansion. When should you hit the accelerator on growth, and when should you pump the brakes? Jannese and Austin are in Nashville, Tennessee to talk with Taku Zhou and Sibusiso Ajayi of TKZ Architecture LLC to explore this crucial entrepreneurial crossroads. The duo shares candid insights from their journey building TKZ Architecture, revealing the moments they knew it was time to scale – and importantly, when it wasn't. They discuss how they balanced the allure of growth against the need to strengthen their foundation through refined workflows, established protocols, and market positioning. Tune in as we unpack the strategic decision-making that goes into sustainable business expansion and learn the telltale signs that you're ready for growth and how to execute that transition successfully.

Talking points include: Giving stolen evidence to cops, lackluster romance options, and just what in tarnation that Jed character is up to and how stupid we are for being surprised by it.

This week we played Heaven Will Be Mine, a visual novel about three female mech pilots tearing through space, battling, flirting, making out, and fighting for what they believe in. The game contains Poetic and dense writing about themes surrounding LGBTQ+, discrimination, space, and what it means to be human. This one was right up our alley! If you've never played it we do summarize it as best we can! Topics include: conquering challenging writing, representation styles, ending interpretations, personal connections, and much more! Be sure to check out our color fact at the end too! It's a good one!

The remaster of Nier Replicant is here and boy we really picked apart this first act! We're joined by our special guests Josh and The Unstumpable Michael to see what's really going on in this one. If you want to catch up on the story we're breaking it down into chunks and discussing throughout highlighting certain aspects of the game and narrative. Topics include: Why does Michael hate Yonnah? XBOX360 era design, Women in their UNDERGARMENTS, and predictions for the 2nd act! This is part 1 of probably 3 so if your interested in more of the meat we'll be getting to that next!

This week we finally talk about a game that Alex has had his eyes on for a while now, Maquette. We also take some time to say farewell to season 6(?) as Plant Facts from Michael goes on hiatus for a bit and a new season closer starts taking shape. Talking points this time include: Just being so dang quirky, who exactly is Ron Howard, puzzle mechanics as a storytelling mechanism, and steam speedruns disguising themselves as walkthroughs.

This week we just took it easy! Hey can you blame us? We work so incredibly hard. This episode we discussed some games we've been playing that don't really need a full spot on the podcast. Alex also brings an interesting topic to the table about talking through the media you consume (really interesting stuff here folks). Games include: Katamari Damacy, Dyson Sphere Project, Monster of the Week, Ori and the Will of the Wisp, Valheim, and Control.

We're back this week and delving deep into the sci-fi stealth action in Echo by Ultra Ultra, a game we both desperately wanted to love.
