One question about three different episodes!

In the episodes The Series has Landed, Amazon Women in the Mood, and The Deep South, Amy says something/swears in Cantonese, I believe. What exactly is she saying?

Thanks again for all the laughs!

Austin!

I'm about to begin my MA program for Literature and have began brushing up on literary theory and criticism. My question for you is if there are any particular scholarly or academic articles that you recommend to better understand video games? This can be virtually anything: the psychology of why people play games, narrative theory in games, cultural studies surrounding games or investigating game mechanics.

Thanks so much for the great content over the last couple of years. Keep it up.

Drew, my girlfriend and I are gutted that you left Giant Bomb but are absolutely thrilled about your new project you're taking. I'm excited to have the opportunity to donate to your Patreon and support you going forward.

Two quick things I wanted to ask:

  • Do you have any advice for someone who wants to look into video production exclusively as a hobby? I'm trying to expand my knowledge of things that could be useful if I ever wanted to try to enter the games journalism industry, and it seems like it'd be great to know this. I always love hearing you, Jason, and Vinny talk about this sort of stuff.

  • The whole "Drew doesn't swear" thing became kind of a joke on the subreddit for Giant Bomb and on the sites forums. Do you ever actually swear or were you raised pretty firmly in not doing it often? I've tried to cut down but it seems impossible sometimes.
