We're in the board room this week and what better place to discuss the gaming industry's newest source for big announcements: the earnings call.

Plus, we've also spent a bit of time with Yoshi And The Mysterious Book, and Zero Parades For Dead Spies!Get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans! Use code FILTHY at checkout.

We're also discussing the controversy around Dispatch on the Nintendo Switch, Tommy's double-dipped on Final Fantasy 7 Remake on the Switch 2 and we've both been scaling the cliffs in the excellent new indie rock climbing game Cairn!Get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans!
