    The Return of Golden Eye (from The History of Fun)

    Simone de Rochefort wasn’t allowed to play violent games growing up, so GoldenEye 007 on the N64 – one of the very first first-person-shooter games – wasn’t exactly her parents’ cup of tea. This week we’ll return to History of Fun’s deep dive on how one of the most popular games of our childhood was developed.

Best new podcast of 2017

I've had such a good time listening to this show so far. I'm an avid podcast listener, and this has quickly become one of my all time favorites. The discussions are thoughtful and funny, and the hosts are wonderful.

Also, thanks to the Polygon Show, I now wake up every morning wondering if we'll ever find out what kind of cookies Ashley kept in her dresser draw.

Hilarious!

Some of the funniest ladies I follow on the internet, engaging in topics I care about deeply, such as which video game character they want to aggressively and sexually wrestle.
