  • Super chill, honest, and fun.

    If you’re into a super honest, fun, chill, and simple (I say that in a good way) podcast about gaming, then check this out. There’s no “gamer hype”. It’s just two dudes talking about what they like. Some of their commentary have gotten me into new games.

  • Extended and more honest

    The lack of (reduced?) editing makes it feel more real though there is part of me that wonders if I miss out by not seeing the visuals. Still good car listening

    Really good, but suffers from a noticeable lack of Rich Evans.
