This week, Marty and Kate dive into the best strategies for playing Stardew Valley, the much lauded timesuck, and do math on just how many hours they've played it for. They play hot potato with the only brain cell left on the show for a while, discussing how they write the endings of their books, what it means to have more stamina for a book, and the unexpected emotional consequences of writing sad scenes (making yourself cry).The Orc from the Office is Kate Prior's latest novella.
