Best in depth gaming show

The hosts do their research and know the history of the games they're talking about, and they're always fun to listen to.

As many thumbs up as you have thumbs!

Utterly delightful show. Everyone on the cast is great and is very well-informed on the games discussed. I’ve found myself playing a bunch of games I’d otherwise never have known about after listening to episodes of the show, and I really appreciate when they share their personal histories and stories with the titles discussed.

Informative & fun

The hosts do a great job on research, I’ve learned quite a bit about the original Wolfenstein from this (an episode I highly recommend). They don’t agree on every game or every point, but also don’t decline into name calling and talking over each other. I appreciate the enthusiasm and effort that the main & guest stars put in to this show.
