We had retrovixey scheduled to be on the podcast even before she wrote an article [https://www.superjumpmagazine.com/respawn-finding-community-after-social-media-burnout/]that we were so touched by. If you have not gotten to check it out yet, please read about her impressions and experiences as she joined Channel 3. She comes on the podcast to talk a variety of games and genres including Earthbound, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, and Mewgenics.
