  • Hugely Entertaining

    Much enjoying the friendly bants and playful digs that evolve out of the gaming chat in this podcast that I recently discovered through crossovers with other gaming interests. The hosts are funny and entertaining, hugely enjoyable to listen to, informative on several fronts - including the occasional “Word of the Week” side-bars! - and absolutely inspire me to pick up and play more games. Bravo.
