“Great podcast, produced well and progresses at a good pace. Too many podcasts meander with idle chit chat which waters down the enjoyment.
This podcast offers insight into the mechanisms and “tricks” used by developers in games we play.
I’m beginning my binge from episode 1...”

Jamie (as he insisted I call him)...”Read full review »

“This podcast covers a topic about once a month. There are great topics that are not covered in any other podcast.
An example of this, was the recent show that asked the question, "Do games make you smarter." The most cutting edge research was brought to the table to discuss this topic. ...”Read full review »

“This podcast has a genuine understanding and love for Gaming but the psychology aspects apply to much more than just gaming. Insights into how thinks are marketed - the psychological states we enter in game play. The concept of different types of envy in one podcast was just something I've...”Read full review »

“I listen at work every time a new episode comes out. A great discussion of the psychology behind video games, from every angle - game designers, game players, and even just people who talk about video games (like how the media says they are too violent). I like the podcast so much that I plan to...”Read full review »
