Thoughtful and Fun!

Mark and Dave do a great job of making games feel accessible and fun. It's interesting how they can really encapsulate the feeling of a game, while also digging into what makes a game interesting and unique. Plus, I love their mellow and funny delivery! So great!

Spectacular!

Riveting discussion between Dave and Mark. Mark’s breakdown of the game of chess is second to none. Absolutely sensational
