It’s doing just about everything right for me so far.

Yeah, it’s a tough nut to crack. I used to think of myself as a content creator, but it seems that to everybody that means video. I’ve attended plenty of events as β€œpress” but that doesn’t feel right.

I’m really just a podcaster. 🀷

A little insider tip…

Resident Evil Requiem is pretty neat. Like… REALLY neat.

I don’t know if it does anything outstanding design wise, but TCG Card Shop Simulator scratches a very specific itch for me as someone who used to play (and sell) a lot of CCGs.

At a time so full of evil people and headlines, this is possibly the worst. It’s just completely inhumane.

Listen, just because World War 3 started doesn’t mean you can’t take a second to enjoy a little podcast while the world burns!

This week I’m talking about TCG Card Simulator, plus Sony pumps the brakes on its PC ports! Happy Thursday! 😁

It feels like a must at this point.

I’m not gonna lie, the idea of a console that plays PC is something I’ve wanted for awhile. The price is gonna be veeeeery interesting though.

It’s pretty gross how many outlets and brands are willing to stay there instead of putting any actual effort into an alternative.

Listen, I voted for Jesse Ventura so… glass houses and all. But maybe we shouldn’t elect anymore giant dumb ogres in sweatpants.

I wish I thought that a Senator violently assaulting and snapping the arm of a marine on camera would be like… a blip on the radar. But I’m watching the news and it didn’t even make the top 10 stories.

Hey @xbox.com, you cool with your games being used to promote war crimes?

You ever see something on your phone before bed that makes you wonder if you’ve already fallen asleep?

I just don’t understand. Make it make sense.

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

If a fella was thinking of trying to learn the Pokemon TCG to play with his kids, what would be a good initial purchase?

Really? That sounds rad. I’ll have to look that up.

Good! Those headsets are spendy, I’m glad people are still getting games.

I don’t mean this in a glib way, but is VR β€œunofficially” dead? I can’t remember the last time I heard anything about a cool new game or hardware. It seems to have completely dropped off of the radar.

If you’re calling for anything less than the immediate impeachment, removal, and prosecution of the president than I just can’t take you seriously.
