Before Matty dies from drinking Red Bull and Vodka he checks back in on God of War and discusses how fair the Platinum trophy feels. Sandy jettisons back into No Man's Sky and finds some refined, but still rough edges, and the pair finally tackle their most complex listener question yet: What makes the perfect pizza?

Aside from ones with pineapple of course.

The origin story of Tegan Phillips, the artistic creator of Unclipped Adventure comics is quite incredible. Tegan started drawing comics purely as a way to win a bicycle and associated bicycle gear - winning that competition led to a number of incredible adventures including a one year, 11,000 km bike trip through the African continent with her family.

During these adventures, Tegan continued drawing comics documenting her experiences while she rode in various places around the world including New Zealand and Europe. This work has now become a full time job with her comics gracing tshirts, mugs and greeting cards.
