The TGN boys are back from winter break and they are kicking off the new year with an introspective chat about their goals, dreams, and aspirations for the new year and for another year or TGN. It’s been a weird few years for much of the world and Jason and James wanted to catch up from the break and talk about what they each want from the year ahead. It may not be packed full of watches (don’t worry, we’ve got extra in next week’s episode) but it’s an intentional start to what we all hope will be a big year for the whole crew.
From the get-go, James is re-addicted to a certain video game and Jason has just finished season 2 of Slow Horses. Stay in the mix for a Final Notes that will have you moving social media to the browser and spending three years in the woods building something remarkable.

Belated happy new year wishes to the TGN community!
Happy New Year everyone! This was a great episode and very relatable. I actually watched a similar youtube video of a guy building a cabin in 2 years, and it was absolutely mesmerizing. I will have to give this one a watch as well.
I can also relate with James regarding COD Mobile. I gave it a shot and instantly was all-in. I try to not play it much anymore, but every now and then sneak in a game or two. It's surprisingly good.
