The Nextlander Podcast 162: Silly British (Patreon)

We're back from break with two weeks' worth of pent-up video game talk about Thank Goodness You're Here, the new Madden, PSVR2 on PC, World of Goo 2, and winning Balatro strategies, a farewell to Game Informer (plus a lot of reminiscing about old magazines (and old websites)), an unexpected tour of what's in our pockets, and more.
