    These people actually believe a man can be a woman. They actually think a man can have a monthly cycle like a woman. I know they’re not biologists but common sense tells you men are men and women are women.

  • Great interviews

    Luke does a great job oh hosting a 1 man podcast which has got to be incredibly hard. He reviews weekly gaming news but my favorite part is his interviews. He has some great interviews from people all over the games industry Update: Luke now has the help of Captain Logun giving the podcast more discussion. I still think Luke is one of my favorites for developer interviews.
