Show Notes
It's time for BGH to enter the ring with "Mortal Kombat II", and it goes exactly how you would expect. Eric is geeking out, Jon is exasperated, and the crew tries their best to make sense of this loud, campy, fever dream of a sequel. Also, Eric shares his retro MK collection, our live viewers react to the fate of Cole Young, and Jon gets quizzed in Gen Z dating slang ahead of next week's selection.
