The Warhammer 40K Trivia Game Show

[@thepoorhammerpodcast]

This episode was fun as hell to record, but Berilio suffered greatly trying to edit this much audio and this many video effects at once. You'll see minor errors in the final cut throughout. I decided to ship it as is rather than continue to force Berilio to redo this for another week to get it perfect. Thank our poor editor and may he enjoy his one day of rest before he has to run it back for next week. For those interested in details: To give you a perspective, the raw audio of this took 2.5 hours to record and for half of this episode nobody could hear Jenny through our call. All the buzzer sounds had to be added in post so they wouldn't screw up the audio editing, we just had a visual buzzer in our recording session. The video editing software also almost died trying to have this many people with this many moving effects while we talked, that's ignoring all the text/popups/models etc. we show on screen.
