We love Taskmaster at our house! Great Podcast as always. Thank you for being something we can listen to in the car with our kiddos and not have to worry all that much about what is said.
My favorite segment has become the Honorable Mentions part. I like when they just casually throw out whatever they are playing. Russ mentioned Sanabi and I was curious if anyone else had beautiful pixel games they loved. I adore good pixel art and would like to hear some suggestions. I did enjoy Katana Zero and I’m not sure if this exactly qualifies, but Shovel Knight is one of my favorite games.
