    Oh hey, you can finally write a review from the app instead of having to log in on your computer. WHAT A CONCEPT.

  • Thoughtful and delightful introspection

    I found out about Bill’s podcast thanks to Twitter. I have had the pleasure of guesting on his show to discuss EarthBound, and he is as kind and warm “in person” as he is hosting the show.

    I am thankful for his interview style. He lets his guests travel along in the conversation and lets listeners really get to know more about the topics.

  • Don’t Sleep On This One, Folks

    A Gamer Looks At 40 has become one of my favorite podcasts. It’s like poring over a family photo album in podcast form. A totem of treasured gaming memories from the people who lived them. Bill’s ability to guide us through a collection of memories from a varied cast of guests that all bring different perspectives is truly remarkable. The fact that the topic at hand is some of the greatest video games ever made is a nice bonus.
