Bluemanrule freeroams with JVB, co-owner of Talking About Games and co-host of Podtacular, Gamertag Radio, Post Game Report. In this show we discuss JVB's history in podcasting, challenges as the ECA Community Manager, and fanboyism. We discuss the difference between fanatics and fanboyism and discover why his Twitter feed is so eccentrically active. All this and more on PYP 41.
