Pythonicus joins pmc for another round of Overboost, providing lots of insight into his own personal history with speedrunning as well as information on Metal Gear speedruns, especially Portable Ops and Peace Walker. He also casually drops that Sahelanthropus's nickname is Sally, something from which pmc is still recovering.

Welcome to OverBoost, where pmcTRILOGY interviews the people who do the speedruns about their history. OverBoost started out as a side project of Mechinations, a mecha anime podcast and so the first five episodes focus on mech anime runners in particular.

For the inaugural epsiode, pmc interviews Tapioca fresh off his recent AGDQ 2020 appearance about Tapioca's time with the Zone of the Enders series. Tapioca currently hold the top times for a number of categories in both ZOE and ZOE2, including Any% Easy and Any% Normal in both games.
