About this episode

You've probably seen their videos, you might have even pondered where the hell is Morley. Well its in our hometown and we travelled all the way across the country to chat to some people who are like a 20minute drive away. Vi, Riley Aaron and Ricky from the Good Games Morley ⁩ crew shared how they've actually defeated and consumed the algorithm, how people aren't super impressed when they actually visit Morley and how a little bit of promo for the shop has taken off.
