Great MMO podcast

If you want a round up of the latest news MMO news from people that genuinely love MMOs of all kinds, look no further. Justin and Bree are great hosts and their independence is a credit to the team. My only minor gripe is that they occasionally seem to forget that an English speaking gaming community exists outside the US.
