Breaking Spotify's Liked Songs Limit | ARA Squad #5

Greetings, fellow watchers! Welcome to yet another episode of the ARA Squad podcast, venturing onward and upward to August. We survived a month! Go US!! In this episode, we get to lie back and talk about: How Ali skipped almost two months' worth of college lectures so that he could binge on some trashy anime that he doesn't even remember. How Rylan liked close to 4,000 songs on Spotify... with pride or with regret? We'll find out! And lastly, how anime evolved from a niche medium to mainstream media, where everyone is familiar with it. This one is laid back and comfy to listen to with pretzels with peppery cheese on as a dip if you must (or a glass of water if you're broke like us xD). Adios.

How Playing Gacha Games Ruined Us | ARA Squad #3

Greetings, fellow cultured people, was the COVID-19 era just a fever dream, or was it real? Evading Fares seems fun, but can it get you jail time? In this week's episode of the ARA Squad podcast, we get to dive in and explore: How Ali got into gacha games and ruined his life and everyone else's. How Aasir went through two years of high school and spent zero bucks on bus fares. Rylan's tasteful throwback to his old solo podcasting days, and last but not least, the 2020 era, where the global drama wouldn't slow down, and people were at home playing Gacha Games when the world was suffering. Fasten your podcast belts, guys, because this one is spicy. Do enjoy this one with a cup of coffee and some leftovers. Oh, and keep yourself hydrated. ARA Squad Disconnecting.
