I would recommend not pressing random buttons for safety's sake and time-space preservation, but... pfft, we wouldn't listen. We've found ourselves in a universe where Mikey's in the studio, a large lizzard doggo is hanging out, and, oh right, the bus has begun!

Here's what you've missed during the first shift of Desert Bus 2022...

Button? Button. Press the button.

Speaking of buttons, Ian introduces this year's Random Dance Party button, which is itself a pin of the Random Dance Party button that actually triggers Random Dance Parties, but the button pins you can buy from the store are really cool mini flat versions of buttons but won't trigger Random Dance Parties. Got that?

Jacob went on a trip and brought back snacks!

Alpha Flight shares some spicy video game opinions.

It's 5-o-clock somewhere... well, here actually!

And finally... is it a Terry Pratchett or Desert Bus Quote?
