The Insert Credit Show

Ash is probably the only person who could have replaced Tim and kept me listening.

There’s so much industry (hate that word) knowledge packed into this well-paced charcuterie board of a video game podcast, that you could watch/listen to it twice. They also delve into comic books, manga, anime, movies, TV shows, video game history, tech, etc. So much of this stuff flies over my head, so I’m glad that Ash can function as the relative layman of the group. She just like me fr! Also shout out to the video version of the pod and Esper’s incredible work there!

The host says the most random hilarious things. I like how they don’t do the old whatcha been playing and news segments like other podcasts. It somehow remains relevant to current events but also celebrates retro games.

The insights occasionally reached by working through some silly question are often worthwhile, more than one might expect. Always fun to listen to. Pacing is good. Encourages me to engage with video games as art objects, which I want to do but often lack the mental toolkit.
