Pixel x Pixel Episode 86

Welcome to Pixel x Pixel episode 86, where we’re rebranding to a breakfast and Aussie artist podcast (let’s say that’s a belated April Fool’s, ha)! In all seriousness, Anne has been too busy with secret freelance projects to have much new to discuss, so you get to hear all about her current favorite oatmeal recipe. Marcus hasn’t written anything recently, but that’s okay, because it’s time to celebrate the 100th Community Game-Along theme! And while both haven’t had much time to game, they’ve been making up for it with new movies and tv shows.
