THiRD SHiFT

We've got not one, but TWO special guests!  First up, it's Gearbox Software VFX artist extraordinaire, Ash Lyons!  Join us as we learn all about his job at Gearbox, where he's worked beforehand, and the happy accident that launched his VFX studies in the first place!  We've also got Danie in the house to help us sift through the details from the latest Compulsion Games and Gearbox Publishing blogs, news on a streaming call-in show featuring Randy Pitchford, some Fortnite patch notes, and the Battleborn free rotation!

Update #1:  Fixed a couple audio issues at the tail-end of the podcast concerning dead air and echoes.

The spookiness continues for the THiRD SHiFT Network.  Nazis, Wrestlers, and small men with red hats, OH MY!  Find out which games made Young Matt and Young Eric wet themselves with yet another zany episode of IG2G!
