Giant Bombcast 939: Meat Shaped State

This week we've got our friends from Beta Hat (Stan and Matthew Rorie) to share how YOU can get paid to chat about your opinitons and knowledge about games!

Head to giantbomb.com/betahat and make sure to tell them that Giant Bomb sent you!

We also get into more thoughts on Saros, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2 still holding up, and if Forbidden Solitaire is another deep card game like Balatro and Inscryption. We also get into today's headlines like GameStop trying to buy eBay, GTA 6 already trying to temper expectations, all of your emails, mystery ads with Grubb, and more!
