PS I Love You XOXO: PlayStation Podcast by Kinda Funny Kinda Funny

Good information and fun people!

See I’m not an obsessive fanboy for any particular console or developer, and so I won’t get weirdly mad like a handful of the most recent reviews.

This group is extremely entertaining, has thoughtful discussions, tells it how it is, and just simply has fun! It’s a great video game podcast with some of the most genuine people in games media.

I used to love this podcast. From the opening theme covering nearly every boot up sounds in PlayStation’s history, to Greg’s booming and infectious energy, I was hooked by Kinda Funny’s podcast. Nowadays, I’m finding myself slowly moving over to Beyond on IGN much of the same way I did from Kinda Funny’s XCast to IGN’s Unlocked.

Maybe I’m just getting older, but Janet’s speed when she talks and how she goes on long talks quickly become draining. Much like another host on XCast, I would avoid episodes if that host was on it and now I just do not want to listen at all. Bless offered great perspectives on gaming, but after a while even that was not enough to keep me coming back.

Which leads me to the biggest reason I’ve gone elsewhere for my PlayStation podcasting wants: This podcast is no longer fun.

Maybe my perspective is skewed on this, but Kinda Funny seems to only care about The Last of Us and God of War, and no other video game is worth talking about in their eyes. Greg’s joking manner of belittling PC players like he was a member of the “PC Master Race” comes across more facetious than humorous. I don’t care about VR all that much, but even I find the hosts dismissive attitude towards the PSVR2 tone deaf because “I can play that on my other VR options” doesn’t apply to those who can only afford one VR headset. Those are some of the things I mean by this podcast is no longer fun.

I wish Greg, Janet, and Bless the best and I thank all 3 of you for a wonderful ride. Sadly, this is where I get off, as I seem to have gotten my fill. XOXO
