In this episode, the two Matts sell a new Cerebral Stimulation product that's even grosser than the other two, compare different types of smoking in terms of which one looks the coolest, gush over old and obscure real time strategy games, and talk about the steampunk and similar subgenres of stories in the next of our three-episode set of the various types of "punk" stories. What is steampunk defined as? What are similar genres with the same idea but different aesthetics? Can it be as cynical as cyberpunk? Will Matt David ever read a real steampunk story and not just watch the other Matt play some fun video games? We discuss it all, with our finest pipes and gear-covered jackets, and talk about the words of Cherie Priest, Jules Verne, The Hobbit, and Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends.
