WBM Podcast aka Witty Banter Media
The Three Best Bros anybody could have (feat. Oski, xFer, and Merc) sit down and go into all sorts of topics while also diverging into wild content. Anime! Pop culture, video games, movies, books, science fiction and actual science. Nothing is safe from the Witty Banter Media treatment. Every episode tends to take an unexpected left turn, so listener discretion advised. However, follow along and you will see they always bring it back full circle. Do not take the WBM Podcast team too seriously because they will never be above a witty joke!

Speaker 1:children yeah, and he's always like he segues into some other shit, you know, but with because of the time where he had to wipe out all the time, lords, which means men, women, children, which means his own family. Yeah, like if he was a dad and what's what's worse, saying no, I don't have children, and not acknowledging the existence. Or saying, yes, I have children, but knowing that they're dead by your hand. Yeah, yeah, like we're not talking about it. Yeah, bro, I got a little dark thing. Yeah, I love it, man, because he's just like, uh, there's a dr who's bro bro it's good, dog happy show.
