Well, you've come to the right place because on this cool podcast for cool people, we talk about all of those topics - unlike those other loser podcasts which don't have the guts.

Let's be honest, the gaming industry is in a pretty rotten place. In the last few months alone we've seen layoffs, cancellations, and price hikes - just to name a few.

It's another rough week of news over at Microsoft with the announcement that a bunch of games have been cancelled and more people laid off. What does this mean for the future of the platform and more broadly - how do you navigate being a fan of an art form that is governed purely by corporate interests and rife with attitudes that are so removed from fun and escapism? As an antidote to all of this harshness, we've been playing and loving the great new (for PS5) indie game Anger Foot!  Get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans! Use code FILTHY at checkout.

The popular survival game The Alters has been found to have been using Generative AI. Is this a big deal? What does the spread of AI mean for the future of game development?
