Give Us the Launch Codes by Travis M. Baker & Thomas N. Flores III

S01 E39
54:43
Episode notes

Travis & Tom reminisce on the Halo saga (the ones that Bungie made that is) and how these games were truly treatises on the dangers of mixing organized religion and government. One can ponder as to how Halo really teaches us lessons that can be applied to the world today... or perhaps it's just a fun video game where you get to shoot at aliens a whole bunch.

NOTE: We recorded this episode BEFORE 'Campaign Evolved' was announced.

CORRECTIONS:

  • 7:19 Bungie was acquired by Sony in 2022, so they probably won’t be involved in Halo again anytime soon.
  • 22:57 This was recorded right before the recent ceasefire deal was made between Israel and Hamas, though it’d be foolish to say any underlying problems there have actually been resolved.
