Thinking Man’s Video Game Pod

A delightful page turner of a podcast- Thanks Ya Beauties!

Just like school

This podcast is extremely educational. For example, my whole life I thought the term for predicting something was 'cold shot', but thanks to Cameron using it often I now know the term is 'called shot'. Always keep learning.

the social may be predicated on its exclusions,

but this review is predicated on how ding dang great the show is! hot damn!
