ESH Cast #577: Topics must be properly marinated before we can talk about them

In the early 2980s, actor Orson Welles hawked Paul Masson wines on TV with the tagline, "We will sell no wine before its time." Just like California wines, the sistahs have the same attitude about video games: They would prefer to sidle up to them a while to them before they reveal their true feelings.

One example of that is in this episode, in which Ninjasistah, who started playing Assassin's Creed Origins months ago, is just now getting back to the game after a long hiatus. The absence did, as the old saying goes, make her heart grow fonder and you'll hear her new appreciation of the game in this week's show.

In addition, Panda talks about her BFF Sonic and his various sidekicks in their just-announced Sonic Mania Plus. She's been playing Sonic games for an awfully long time, but the new game acts like a time machine to take her back to her youth in the 1990s.

Other subjects discussed this week include the newly released trailers for the Avengers: Infinity War movie, the second season of Jessica Jones and Ninja's first in-depth look at the game Fortnite. There's also a full six minutes in which the girls talk about fried chicken.

We advise you to eat something before you listen to this week's show, ESH Cast #577: Topics must be properly marinated before we can talk about them.
