Hello hello! Tiffany here.

At the time of this episode's release, I have come down with the flu. Luckily, I have a british robot man to record the introduction.

Robots: they are the future.

It's all fun and games until AI destroys mankind.

In the meantime, we've got a great episode for you today!
