Ready to unlock the secrets of the gaming universe? Your hosts, Lexi and Afro, are here to guide you through the latest intel on what's shaking things up in the gaming world. From Lexi's escapades in Baldur's Gate, Afro's solo cinema adventures, to discussing the upcoming launch of Ashes of Creation - we're spilling the beans on all things gaming. We also examine how Microsoft's big buyout of Activision could change the game. And don't forget, we're keeping an eye on the PlayStation 5 exclusivity period that's about to end.

Ever wondered how jazz music influences gaming? We're exploring that too! Our heated discussion takes us into the heart of the movie Blue Giant, as we review how the story of an 18-year-old jazz enthusiast is brought to life in an animated world. We dissect how the spectacular animation style meshes with the soulful music, creating an audio-visual treat for viewers. From the birth of jazz in the '90s and its evolution into the 2000s, we'll take you on a journey through its impact on the gaming world.

Ready to take a trip down memory lane? We wrap up our episode with a fun recap of Mario and Sonic's Wild House Party. We laugh over Sonic's reaction when he sees Amy at the pool, praise Pac-Man’s kind nature, and ponder over the cunning plan by the Sonic gang to get back at Mario. Yet, amidst all the fun and games, we don't forget to appreciate the passionately improvised jazz music by the young protagonist of Blue Giant. So, sit back and enjoy the wild ride as we make gaming, movies, and music collide in an unforgettable podcast episode!
