Level With Us Jared and Marcus Richardson

- 休閒
Welcome to Level With Us - a cozy video game discussion podcast where brothers Jared & Marcus play a game separately, then meet together to discuss it (kind of like a book club!). This show is for all ages, so curl up with your loved ones and enjoy as these guys gush about their favorite games, gripe about the annoying parts of games, and try to stump each other with nerdy trivia questions!
If you have thoughts you'd like featured in our regular discussions, or for business inquiries, just e-mail us at LevelWithUsPodcast [at] gmail.com!

Nostalgic Trivia Battle!
Today we reminisce about the good ol’ days of subpar Gameboy platformers, candy-themed web games, and driving each other crazy, with a nostalgic trivia battle! One advantage of us co-hosts being brothers is we know exactly what games each other has played, so we hope you enjoy 40+ minutes of us trying to stump each other, and going on plenty of nostalgic tangents along the way!
