Pretty Good, episode 8: ‘WHY DO I CHOOSE THIS FOR A LIVING?’

High-stakes poker is terrifying. If you’re dumb and easily frightened, like Jon, it’s even more terrifying. Welcome to the eighth episode of Pretty Good, a show about stories that are pretty good.

Pretty Good is written, edited, narrated, illustrated, animated, and unreasonably drawn-out by Jon Bois. More episodes of Pretty Good can be seen here. Jon is ultimately responsible for a lot of other things, and those things can be found at A Huge Dog.
