But first, the Boys catch up on what they've been playing this week as Sarah's been scared sick, Glenn's cringing through an old classic and Pierre's struggling to get a word in edgeways. *Citation needed To follow along with the Button Boys outside the podcast: Pierre - You Sit There, I'll Stand Here Glenn - Please Sir, Glenn I Have Some Moore Glenn and Producer Ben - The Audience VS Sarah's Melbourne Show If you can't get enough Button Boys content, head over to Patreon , where you can find our weekly Hidden Cache bonus episode featuring more gripes, game recommendations and our Hitman: World of Assassination playthrough, and Player 4, where we interview a different comedian every month about their gaming lives.

If you've embarrassed yourself in front of your friends, shouted at your grandma for being a complete noob or felt like a god clacking away at a plastic peripheral to the mellifluous tones of AC/DC, then you'll feel right at home. Glenn relays a traumatic experience, Sarah stretches their vocal cords and Pierre shares a potential sleeper hit from back in 2009. But before that, we catch up on the week's gaming. Sarah's started an absolute classic, Pierre's frustrated with some mech-anics and Glenn's creeping everyone out with his freakish little obsession. We should also say a big thank you to Oscar this week for our absolutely banging theme tune. It's already spreading through the seediest clubs of London town.
