    Pushing Through the Fear is Worth It (this is kind of a sad one)

    A few drive time thoughts on having to say goodbye to my dog over the weekend and how I think we can relate the fear of losing pets to our fears in other areas of life. This is kind of a sad one, so sorry in advance. Follow me on Twitter though at @jauxking, and that will cheer you up. :)

    Episode 2: Korean BBQ and When Viewers Think They Own Your Stream w/ Meg Kaylee and Pikalyn

    Pretty quick and dirty episode here, but on a subject I think we’ll be delving more into over time. I sit down for some Korean BBQ with Meg Kaylee and Pikalyn and discuss the phenomenon of viewers suddenly thinking they have a say/ownership in your stream or channel because they made a donation, or for some other reason. Follow me on Twitter at @jauxking and let me know if this has ever happened to you.

    A few quick thoughts on Esports and getting your inspiration back

    This is just a quick little recording I did on my morning commute that includes some thoughts on this past weekend’s Overwatch League event here in DFW (and maybe Esports in general) , as well as a really obvious realization I had about how to get your inspiration back when you lose it. Have a question or insight you’d like to share? Follow me over on Twitter at @jauxking!

  10. TRAILER

    Well, it’s a podcast, but that’s about all we know at this point.

    Hey, my name is Joe and I work in the video games industry. I get lots of questions from people about how to break into games, since I’m no expert, we’re gonna learn together. This is going to be a lo-fi journey. I’ve put off making this for a long time because I was hung up on all the wrong details, mainly sound quality and format. No more. The important thing is the content itself and the conversations that we’ll all have. Let’s do it.
