    Fantastic show
    Love the discussions focusing on games that may or may not be in the zeitgeist anymore- the games that could get left behind. Lovely panel full of well-spoken, intelligent people. In my gaming podcast rotation, and should be in yours too

    Great gaming podcast
    LBGC strikes the perfect balance between casual vibe and in-depth discussion of video games both new and old. No attitude or snobbery whatsoever. The audio quality is usually top notch as well!
  • Lover of the Arts, hear ye!
    One of the Best
    I love the dynamic between Jacob, Mo, and Mike (and all the other guests!). Their format is easy to follow, fun, and freakin hilarious. For anyone who loves video games (even if you’re bad at them like me), this is a great podcast for you. I’m hooked and a forever listener now.

    Great Game Reviews!
    I’ve been in quarantine, sitting alone, and just blown away by some of the games I’m playing. It’s honestly been such a comfort to listen in to some really creative, intelligent, and funny people talk in depth about some different games. I was about to start yelling at the walls about KR0, so thank you for going so in depth and speaking on some amazing references, thoughts and different game plays!

    I LOVE THIS PODCAST
    Everyone is staring at me as I jam out to your theme song.
  • The Greatest Story Ever Played
    Listen to this show!
    This show is excellent! The guys are tackling the never ending task of ensuring that "no game is left behind". Some of my favorite episodes have been What Remains of Edith Finch, Detroit Become Human and Night in the Woods.
  • Matt aka Stormageddon
    Video Games and Great Chats!
    The hosts (and guests) do such a great job about really diving in on why they do or don’t love these games and why those discussions and these games are so important. A must listen for any fan of gaming!
  • Stanley Michaels
    Great show!
    Thanks for the fun show!
  • Rocco T
    Delightful Game Podcast
    Love these Canucks and their video game takes. I actually disagree with them a lot, but still love to listen, which is the mark of a great show.
