The Gaming Outsider Podcast is a show dedicated to video gaming of all kinds with a focus on the community. Here at The GO, we don't subscribe to just one platform, and we realize that we don't have the ability to play every game that's out there. Our goal is to discuss ours and our listener's perspectives on current and former games that we have played while keeping a positive environment.

  • I’m not even a gamer…

    Scott and the crew make gaming feel accessible and fun for everyone—even for someone like me who isn’t a gamer. Their easygoing and relatable conversations helped me learn a lot, not just about games, but also about how I can connect with my daughter through her interests. I truly appreciate their passion for gaming culture and the way they make it welcoming for all. Keep up the great work, guys
