Episode 82: The One Where Joel Hosts (February 12, 2015)

Casual Shenanigans Gaming is a podcast all about PC Gaming, DayZ, ARMA, Battlefield, and all things PC Gaming related. This week Joel takes over the reigns as host. We talk about pocket-size PCs, how well the Potato Masher runs Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag, and where the phrase "OK" came from.
