We're going to start posting reviews here in between the big podcasts we do, hope you enjoy! This week's review is Death Stranding, the 2019 video game by Hideo Kojima that has completely changed the way I feel about the people in my life, the year we're facing, and the medium of gaming as a whole. I have written a spoiler-free review in an effort to bring other people to the game because I hope it can help you in the same way it has helped me: I'm left more prepared to face the challenge of 2020, and more able to process and accept what has happened. It is cool, devastating, uplifting and strange, and this review is somewhere between a wake and a love letter, written with 95 hours on the clock. Thank you Kojima Productions for making this.

The text version of this is on our website here:

& there's a video of me reading on IGTV too.

Our last review of the year so I'll see yas in 2021!
