  • Josh is so incredibly knowledgeable and really knows how to keep his guests talking about the games each episode. I love tuning into an episode about a game that I thought I knew a lot about and learning way more than I came in with. Very HIGHLY recommended.

  • Still Loading Podcast is one of the most informative podcasts on video gaming. The host does an amazing job of bringing on passionate and informed guests when he is covering a game and some great story tellers when he does more interview style episodes. Whatever topic he is covering, you will know things after listening that you did not know before. And if you're in the mood for some lighter content, this crazy dude has watched and recorded episodes about every cartoon in Captain N.
