Warning alert, Swarmcasters: This episode contains some colorful words and slightly explicit language. Yes, Ruby is on the episode.
We talk with the folks behind the game Your Mother Is A Wh@%e, and there was simply no way to get around some of the language. But, it's all fun and games (as they say) and with some of those games you guys play out there, who are you to judge us? I see what you have on that shelf behind you, Richard. And Beth, you can pretend the shrink wrap is still on that big, black box of cards, but we know better.
