Marvel Rivals layoffs, Livestreamed Memecoin Suicide, Kmart Rice Cooker

Game for Anything

In an episode covering the full gamut of human emotions, Paul fills us in on the well-publicised layoffs of the Marvel Rivals team in Seattle. But is it a matter of rampant capitalism gutting studios, or is Marvel Rivals' Chinese developer - NetEase - just keeping jobs more local? Plus, heartbreaking news has surfaced of a crypto trader who appears to have ended his own life by playing Russian roulette live streamed on X/Twitter. Disturbingly, memecoins named after him were then tokenised. And, to leave things on a more lighthearted note, Rad shares the joys of her new Polly Pocket sized Kmart rice cooker. Because $15 can buy happiness.
