An interesting and informative podcast about video games. I was never interested in interview podcasts, but after listening to only two episodes of this one, I became a supporter. Chris is doing great work.

I am a full time American student preparing for an Internship in New Zealand. I am busy and stressed! Anything that is peaceful, well thought out, and informative is so welcome. Chris has such a calming and kind presence and having this in my ears while I’ve been playing Digimon World Time Stranger is holding me together. Thanks Chris!
