Here it is, the big one, the final podcast that Fred and Jam are doing on the regular. It by no means signifies an end to this show, these hosts, and especially the content. Instead it’s GH101 taking a stance that properly covering games requires time and consideration, especially when it comes to picking the best medium (audio, video, article) to cover a game or topic.
