Player One Podcast

This week! With CJ out, Greg welcomes games journalist Carli Velocci for a conversation that runs from GTA 6's baffling Netflix reveal to climbing console prices, the upheaval in games media, and whether the industry's biggest games need to shrink to survive. Then it's a stack of CJ's listener questions covering video game musicals, retro features worth reviving, and which genres deserve a comeback. Join us, won't you?
