  • Entertaining and Brilliant Criticism

    This show is such a perfect blend of relaxed, fun round-tabling and sharp, vital games criticism. Samantha and Alex are brilliant, engaging hosts. Where so many gaming podcasts are simple reviews or fancasts, NYMG isn't afraid to get dig into the important ways that games impact our lives and culture.
