    Get ready to press play on a nostalgia-packed episode with the multi-talented Matt Blair, as we venture into the captivating world of gaming. Matt, revered for his comedy, film enthusiasm, and music, offers enthralling tales from his time on the Games World show. This is not just a trip down memory lane; it's an inside look at the evolution of gaming, the emotional rollercoaster games can put us through, and the hefty price tag that often accompanies our love for the game.

    Brace yourselves as we begin by unearthing some long-buried memories from the Games World tryouts. Sit back and enjoy as Matt and I reminisce about our first meeting on Game 12, where I finally conquered Big Boy Barry. Further, Matt, with his signature wit, relives his journey from the PS1 era, his rediscovered love for gaming thanks to God of War (2005), and the trials and tribulations of completing the Shadow of the Colossus temple during the pandemic.

    Finally, prepare to chuckle as we delve into the comedic aspects of modern wrestling and explore the world of remakes, streaming, and Twitch and Discord for game updates. We wrap up this jamboree with a fascinating discussion on the possibility of remakes for classic games, and the power of laughter in intensifying serious moments. This episode, brimming with laughter, nostalgia, and insightful discussions, is an absolute must-listen for gaming enthusiasts and Matt Blair fans alike.
