About This Podcast
Since the dawn of time, humanity has tried to establish just what it is about gaming that draws us in, shapes us, drives us to greater things. Whether it be the simple pleasure of Mario, the complex twists and turns of Master Chief, the beauty of Chuckie Egg, we have all been defined by what we play, in a way, wouldn't you say? Yeah! So join Sam and David (and guests!) as they delve into the games, consoles, and phenomena that have defined their lives and explore just what makes their Gaming Eras tick.
