The award that changes the lives of its winners Plus: a limited, hand-numbered launch poster by Sonny Ross

For years, I hoped NPR, NYTimes, or the ghost of Gimlet would make a video game podcast. A weekly, hour-long audio magazine with essays, interviews, tight editing, and a cheeky sense of humor.

Nobody made the show I wanted to hear.
So, I made it myself.

Here's the first episode of Post Games.
