New Year, new me. Nah. I'm fine just the way I am. Doing the things I love. Like enjoying

a latte on the bus with some music or on a walk with a friend. My only resolution is

to enjoy more of what I love. Like switching up my usual with oat, soy, almond or coconut.

All delicious non-dairy alternatives available at Starbucks. For no extra charge. While stocks

Welcome to beach to sandy water to wet. A podcast featuring real reviews written by people

who just need the world to know what they think. Between you and me, I wanted to like this

podcast. But I'd give it zero stars if I could.

Hello and welcome to beach to sandy water to wet. The podcast where we read the worst reviews

in the most dramatic fashion. I'm X-team. I'm X-A-N-D. How are you?

I'm great. We're talking about the Sims today. Who's the idea? Patreon?

Patreon. Actually a lot of people. I found an old email from Jair who had written in with

just saying like, hey, you should do the Sims. I think I got a review that I found from

a couple of years ago or a year ago that someone sent in also requesting the Sims. Yeah,

this has been very popular. Highly anticipated. Yes.

It's been very delightful to research as well. Kind of for me too. A little backstory. I

was streaming. I've been streaming the past couple of days because I'm playing the last

of us. Are you familiar with the show that just came out on HBO Max? Are my glazed eyes

not giving you the experience? No, okay. Well, it's a hot new thing. So get with it.

It's a video game based on the original video game. I saw the book at Barnes and Noble.

Is there a book? Yeah, it said read the book before you watch the series. Are you serious?

I was. I think that the I thought the video game was original. I don't think it was a book.
