    Easy going chat about games both new and old. Pleasant style of not rushing to complete something if it’s not enjoyable or real life gets in the way.

    Affable, relatable hosts. Podcast length just perfect to not outstay a welcome.

  • Great Podcast for Finding Hidden Gems

    A favourite podcast to listen to when searching for a new game to play. Lots of hidden gems discovered across the many episodes and both hosts bring a lot of insight to each game they review. Highly recommended!
