These guys always have a great and level-headed attitude in discussing games and culture. They’re excellent hosts for this show. I’m just glad this exists, it scratches an itch for me. I need to be up on this stuff and can’t just have YouTube playing all the time. This actually helps me keep up-to-date while reducing screentime, compared to video coverage. But their vids are great too! Excellent work. Thank you.
Long time listener, but some feedback. You guys try to be an “all around” nerdy podcast, but I often noticed you guys cover video game, movie, or card game news without trying them out. I hear Paul all the time say “I don’t know anything about this product but it sounds like…”.

Hey guys, first time providing a review, honestly forgot how to since I listen you guys on Apple lol
I do have a question.

I ask because Cyberse is the only type that doesn’t have at least one monster that is also a pendulum. And if so, how do you think its strategy would be?
Paul and Alec and express there opinion on things👍. I love how they talk about everything from trading cards to video games.
According to them there talk about everything but politics.
