Tune in for a cozy episode this week, as it’s just Deux and I for the bulk of the show! Mom Brain does come in towards the tail-end, but we worked with what he had for a Friday show. While we lacked in people, we made up for in hot topic discussions! Get ready for some inside baseball this time around, as we talk more openly about the gaming press, game leaks (without spoilers) and the seedy underbelly of covering games!

RMC, I really appreciate your frank discussion of media outlets and their relationship with publishers. We all kind of know that there are certain strings attached when a reviewer gets a review copy of a game, but it's nice to know more specifically how it works. And I like your philosophies on reviewing games, under those circumstances. It's one of the many reasons I enjoy GoNintendo.
