#136: H-h-h-hot Hot Hot

Hot days call for hot questions! To counter the California heat wave, we get breezy with a round of hot questions. We take a long hard look at games we love, but don't play, and give our takes on the theme to end all themes. Before we get heated, we talk about Ctrl, New York Zoo, and Renature.

01:40 - Ctrl
07:06 - New York Zoo
15:24 - Renature
18:23 - Blue Lagoon
26:11 - OLWLG Math Trade
28:01 - Hot Questions!
28:17 - Can you have a favourite game you don't play anymore?
30:14 - The Resistance
32:36 - Cosmic Encounter
37:19 - What's the theme to end all themes?
39:52 - Sabotage

Thanks to Guanye for sending us the Jixia Academy pronunciation clip.
