This is a great companion podcast to the brilliant essay collection! The guests can expand on their contributions to the book in meaningful ways.
I just wish that the audio quality was better. Half the time you can hear the guest‘s audio picked up on a host‘s mic, the other half it sounds like someone is assembling an ikea shelf. A bit uncomfortable to have that in your ear while listening to the insights into telling stories in an interactive medium.
Just a few episodes in, but this is already an essential listen for writers interested or involved in games. Two knowledgeable hosts interviewing a writer in a focused, in-depth interview on their work and techniques. No fuss, no distraction, just an informative conversation to sit in on.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
