Podtacular 652: Avocados and Pineapple Pizza

From this week’s Community Update, Grim was nice enough to give us enough read ahead time for quite a bit of content to go through. We have a new comic mini-series coming, the Ban Hammer has been dropped in MCC, new features are on the way for MCC and the Insiders, and HWCL is weeks away from the invitational finals for this season. There may be a small discussion on avocados and pineapple pizza started from this week’s social stream.
