Cool idea

This is a cool idea for a podcast. I love hearing, peoples experiences with gaming. I hope to see some more of these soon, but it might be fun to have some audience based questions. What makes you buy a game at full price and if you don’t what makes you wait? This might be a fun question. Keep it up.

Focused, thoughtful, and entertaining.

Heavily Invested has hooked me after the first two shows. Dan’s questions are thoughtful, not ones you would expect from someone new to interviewing. He makes his guests recall their personal experiences with vivid detail, keeps them focused, and moves the show forward without getting tripped up between topics. I hope more episodes are released soon!
