The Unlockables is a video game podcast about people's stories and memories around the video games they play, as well as the story of video games themselves! Each week a guest or guests join Eric on the show to talk about the games that meant the most to them growing up, the games they love now, and memories they have with friends, family, loved ones, or even themselves about playing videogames. There are also some solo episodes sprinkled in with random topics related to anything and everything video games!
