I jumped into supporting two podcasts on Patreon for the first time this week, @thebestiespod and @MinnMaxShow. I even got a message from Ben Hanson himself! Stoked to support good content creators in a direct way, highly recommend doing that for shows you love listening to.
@GoodpodsHQ @thebestiespod and @GreatestTrek have been on rotation for me lately as they are both my comfort shows
Thanks to Griffin McElroy @thebestiespod for getting me hooked on Tingus Goose. You sick, sick man.
Peek behind the game dev screen: I've been a lifetime listener of @thebestiespod even before I got into game dev. so...I ALMOST CRASHED MY CAR 😅when they surprise covered @lilguardsman on this weeks' episode. Thanks for checking us out! Me after I got over the shock:
@thebestiespod have you guys talked about Slay the Princess yet? I’m still trying to figure out if it’s really deep or nonsense. Either way a fun game!
If anyone needs a book rec: Justin mentioned "We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves" by Karen Joy Fowler on @thebestiespod the other day and oh my god it's so good 😭😭😭
@thebestiespod @RussFrushtick Have I found someone??
@thebestiespod has anyone checked out palworld? I find my taste pretty similar to Justin so I'm hoping he's tried it and can give feedback on this week's episode
Thanks to @thebestiespod for their game reviews and discussions; I gave my husband Xmas gifts he truly loves: the videogames Dredge and Chants of Sennaar. I haven't seen him this excited since Pentimemt. ❤️
So thankful for @thebestiespod
