Episode Notes

This episode is all about Gambit. Why? I mean, that's quite the important question. Friedrich Nietzsche said "He who has a why to live can bear almost any how." Of course, Nietzsche also said "The Superman is the meaning of the earth." and I remember just enough about that time he had blue electricity powers to use that as evidence to disagree with Nietzsche. So we must again ask why? And it all comes down to the truth that Adam and Zack will sell an hour of their lives for $5.

As Nietzsche also said "The value of a thing sometimes lies not in what one attains with it, but in what one pays for it - what it costs us.” So the value of making us read bad turn of the century Gambit comics isn't really $5, it's an hour of enjoying the suffering of two dudes. And hey, Nietzsche also said "to live is to suffer" so ipso facto, this episode is all about Gambit so that we suffer. Thanks.
