  • Walking through the week

    Great new podcast from Sifter - these guys really know their stuff! I normally listen to their other podcast mainstream (it’s really good) but I think this new format is excellent for getting a snapshot of what’s been happening with games in the week in 10 mins - great for the short bus commutes!
