This week's episode is late, for which we apologise and blame Geoff Keighley because let's face it, he's the one pulling all the strings these days. Jonty was still sat in meeting rooms in LA when this episode was recorded and Brendy is still doing d... more
This week Alice and I gathered in hot rooms to have hot takes on the main news stories of the week, chiefly the end of Destiny (and perhaps the employment of many of its developers) and the start of the Disco Elysium sequels. We also attempted to und... more
I regret to say that we were unable to record a regular news episode this week. Everybody was away or ill or both, with the exception of Brendy who is a new parent and thus is going to be preoccupied, exhausted and/or covered in body excretions for t... more
It’s an emergency episode this week: both Alice and Brendy were away, so I had to dial in from Vegas to assist Nate in judgement of the main news events. This lead to some sub-optimal audio and a diminished runtime, for which I can only beg your forg... more

Ireland2 months ago - The only video game podcast you need
Alice, Nate, Jonty and Brendy are podcasting gold. Any combination of the hosts is hilarious, informative and delightful, with their fondness for each other coming through just as strongly as their fondness for (most? Many?) video games. One of the few podcasts I’ll listen to as soon as a new ep drops - I now probably listen to it more than I actually have time to play video games… Thanks so much to all the team!

United Kingdom3 months ago Lovely to have these goofballs podcasting together. Great games discussion and great mini improv bits
Podcast Addict53 months agoFiatLuce- Only the podcast you need
There used to be loads of video games podcasts which were fun/funny, sometimes controversial and then there weren’t. Times were dark. Turns out Alice and her gang were making casts all last year. The best thing about you discovering this show, dear reader, is that there’s already loads of episodes.
