Will Talks About Games 2.0

Version 2.0 of Will Talks About Games! I'm Will, and I like to talk about video games. Sometimes it's news, other times, it's essays, other times, it's mini documentaries, sometimes, it's just random stuff that's on my mind. Either way, check it out, you're gonna love it. I'll be reuploading most of the episodes from the old WTAG (since the original podhost went down) and hit you up with all new ones. Also, check out my youtube channel over at http://youtube.com/@screwfacecapone.
