  • Putting the Fun in Fun and Games!

    The recent episode on Load Times was the first episode I listened to. This show was right up my alley of nerd stuff that I love.

    The hosts have a great chemistry and seemed very knowledgeable on the topic. Will definitely add this show to my current rotation!
