🎉 Weekend Edition Vol.043

there's a calm before the storm

Can you believe it's the weekend!

I hope everyone in SoCal is doing okay—each news report I see feels more depressing and more devastating than the last... I appreciate those who've reached out, but up in the North Bay we are a good five hours from any fires—my cousin in LA is a different story, but so far she's safe and sound outside of any evacuation area.

Besides all of that terribleness, it was a pretty great week here on foofaraw as we pushed out a full week of wonderfulness—and theres's plenty more where that came from!

Plus! Tomorrow I have a massive e-mail recapping the best shows of 2024 and the most anticipated shows of 2025, so you know... go fourth and do as you please or what not.


First up this week, Joel takes things down a notch, to a much smaller scale in the world of Cavendish.

Then Jon takes us on a journey in this weird, surreal take on the length people will go for their art and the endearment from their fans.

And finally, James broke down the best games of 2024 and we declared our first Foofaraw Game of the Year.

Of course, on Monday we had our first Media Guide of the year—things are still a bit slow, but they should be ramping up shortly.

And Review of Links went out Wednesday. It's a pretty killer edition if you ask me.
