Welcome to Massively Affected, where I, Josh Silverman, bring on a guest and ask them the not-so-simple question: Why Mass Effect?

For our first of two debut episodes of Massively Affected, I'm joined by Matt Storm, host of Reignite, "Fun" & Games Podcast, Screen Snark, and countless other podcast. Matt is a longstanding fan of Mass Effect who I had the good fortune of meeting at PAX East 2020 and subsequently bonding with over our love of a great many things, including the sub-genre of queer space romances.

On today's show we dive into Matt's history with Mass Effect and how he was originally exposed to the series. We take a look at his show Reignite, and how the show's book club-esque style has offered him a new vantage on BioWare's beloved trilogy. And of course a whole lotta conversations about what BioWare did right, the missed opportunities, and oh so much more!

Also, come on back and join me for episode two featuring my Constantly Calibrating co-founder, Sylvi Needham!
