Alex Dumas- Abundance Daily ,

Never thought of it that way

Great insights on games and mental health, I've never seen that connection before. Great job Ches bringing some different insights into this subject.

TChan Games ,

Games have so many benefits

It was great to talk with Ches about games. Games have impacted my life in major ways like teaching me how to read.

Goodmutt ,

Wonderful show!

This podcast is an insightful blend of video game current-events and innovations from such a wide range of different sources. It goes in-depth about how video games are more than just a hobby for many, and how we can all benefit from using games in new, imaginative contexts. Fascinating interviews with great follow-up material. Always looking forward to the newest release!
