This week, we talk about ESL's Mobile Game Championship, ESPN's Collegiate Championship, and DOTA 2 Autochess rising up the charts. Also, what happens when esports players get injured?

This week, Shaggy and Will deep dive into what makes someone a fan of an esports team, and Shaggy reveals his final pick for Overwatch League Fandom. Also, Apex Legends hits 50 million players, and the first woman drafted into the NBA 2k League.

On this week edition of GILWPE (Really? That's our acronym?), we celebrate Shanghai's first OWL win, EVO leaving Smash Melee off the schedule, and Competitive Stardew Valley.

Week 1 of Season 2 of Overwatch League is in the books, and Shaggy and Will talk to Ash Parrish (@adashtra) about the storylines headed into S2, and what it was like to be at the Blizzard Arena for the opening weekend!

Days before the launch of Season 2 of Overwatch League, Activision Blizzard announced their best fiscal quarter ever, and a layoff of around 800 employees. Shaggy and Will discuss how (or even if) to handle the awful, sad, anger-inducing bullcrap that surrounds the things we love.

Huge guest alert! FGC all-star Persia joins Shaggy and Will to discuss her XO Academy program to push female players into the fighting game spotlight. Also: will Apex Legends crack the code for competitive battle royale? And it turns out that word-of-mouth is the best way to get people to watch esports. (I also hear it's the best way to get people to listen to podcasts.)

We're back! After taking a week off for some dental work, we're talking the possibility of esports players unionizing, RLCS Season 7, and how Vancouver's OWL team is in peril. Full disclosure: we recorded on Tuesday, but "technical difficulties" kept it from being uploaded until today. ("Technical difficulties" is code for "Shaggy is dumb.")

With 2019's Awesome Games Done Quick in the books, Shaggy and Will look at Speedrunning as Esports-adjacent. Also, Rocket League goes cross-platform, and what if they held a fighting game tournament, and nobody could afford to go?

Ash Parrish joins Shaggy and Will to break down the competitive Overwatch Drama that got 2019 off to a sad, depressing start. Also, the DBFZ mystery continues, and Shaggy geeks out over the Rocket League Hot Stove.

On this week's post-holiday episode, we open The DBFZ Files and dig into the Deep State Conspiracy behind the disappearance of Dragonball FighterZ tournaments. Also, Blizzard's Naughty List for OWL Players, and our Top Esport Moments of the Year. Oh, and Shaggy and Will are actually in the same room for once.
