7 Dec 2012Borderlandus interruptus occurs when you have to stop playing just before you level up so you can do a podcast. In men, it can cause a painful condition called “blue thumbs.” That’s how this week’s GameHounds show starts. And it continues from there with cohosts Nick Dinicola and Edie Sellers.
