Ion is reunited with his father, Andros Lightspur but as is often the case on Plus One to Hijinks, not every family reunion is a happy one. Not sure what that says about us to be honest...
Andros' visit brings information that promises to shake the very foundation of Ion's beliefs in himself and his order, along with a request that could prove to be an end to the Dessarin Watch itself.

The Hijinkscrew is back in the bunker again this week to talk about another favorite game setting. But because Eric is a renegade maverick that plays by his own rules, it's not a D&D setting this time. Instead we're talking about the Palladium Books setting known as Rifts!
Do you like multiverse settings with wildly varied dimensions being mashed together? Or crazy fights with power armor wearing cyborgs fighting dragons or vampires? If you answered yes to either of those then Rifts might be just what you're looking for!

The Hijinkscrew is back again with another movie roundtable for this week's mini-episode. And we are finally, after months of delay talking about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2! It's only what? Two and a half months late? Nice and topical, just the way we like it.
