Matt and Sidney are fun to listen to and will inspire your gaming to new and better heights.
The hosts are very knowledgeable about games and the act of play. Listening to these pods help me contextualise my own experiences and think about how I can get more from the experience when I play games with my friends and family.
Keep it up!
All the conversations are very compelling and well presented. The conversations are thought provoking, the production value is high! Keep it up!
Have enjoyed Matty’s content for a while, just discovered this podcast and it’s full of really interesting questions and theorising.
Insightful and witty breakdowns of role playing musing I’d never thought about - love it! Props for the title-song too.
