Customer Reviews
My favourite convo
I love listening to the banter in the beginning, as well as the latest and what everyone likes with the newest games
My Favourite Games Podcast
GoG is the best podcast covering video games/the industry as a whole that I’ve ever come across!
Everyone brings a perspective of loving the art, and a deep understanding of the business and the news within the video game industry so that I always leave informed. Additionally, supporting Canadian creators is always a huge win!
They’ve brought on guests talking about topics like development, and even accessibility within game studios! I can’t recommend them enough!!
CWG Lets go
Canadian women games perfect combo love y’all have a good listen to this it is perfect and on point
