We start this week’s show out by talking about our recent initiative to stream games on Twitch, moving on to the hot games of the week with a hefty amount of time arguing about how bad (or how good) Flappy Bird is, which is currently sitting pretty at the #1 free spot on iTunes for reasons unknown. Of course from there, we delve into the news, argue about Nintendo, and hit on some upcoming games we’re excited about.
If you’ve been having trouble with our podcast feed, it seems like the way to fix it is by unsubscribing and resubscribing in your podcast management app of choice.
Don’t forget to shoot us emails with any questions, feedback, or anything else relevant or irrelevant to [email protected]. We read ’em all, even if they don’t make it into the podcast.
As always, you can listen to us with the links below… And if you like what you hear, please subscribe and/or drop us a review in iTunes. Much appreciated!
