In this episode, we revisit the Headline topic from August 2018’s episode. With a bunch of headlines submitted by David H. and some others that we researched, we attempt to take weird, cool, or even crazy headlines and “game-ify” them. We expand the article to include more content (if needed) and tie either a specific or generic game system to it.
