Hello, show notes reader!
I would like to take a moment to thank Josh and Kevin for giving me the opportunity to do the show notes each and every week.
Not only because this is Thanksgiving, but because this the 100th episode of The Inner Tube that I have done the show notes for!

Until episode 200...
Thanks, Corban

Another big part of the Battlefront 2 controversy is the loot-boxes themselves, and weather or not they're gambling

I started watching 'Arrested Development' because of this show, so now I understand all the obscure references!

This episode sounded just as good as the others. I couldn't hear any difference except for a tiny bit of noise near the start (~5 minutes in).

The most important thing if you disagree with EA's practices is to vote with your wallet (i.e. *don't buy their stuff*). I'm hoping Disney will notice the bad PR and do something about it, but it likely won't be easy to get out of their contract.

Great episode as always, guys.

P.S. The "Josh & Kevin" page on the WWBTR site still says Kevin works for Made In.

Kevin was very ill, so Josh decided to not record an episode this week. I'm sure they'll make it up some time soon (since it would be an extra excuse for the tube of them to hang out). Good news: Kevin is feeling better now.
