Gamers With Jobs - Conference Call
The official podcast of GamersWithJobs.com, the GWJCC is our way of providing a podcast that feels like you are hanging out with friends after a long day in the office. We strive for smart, in-depth discussions about the latest games and gaming-related news, as well as light, playful tangents. We're always thrilled to talk about the new hotness, explore fun and strange indie gems, and revisit games old and new.

Rich, Shawn, Andrew, and Amanda talk games that mechanically buck the trend.

Games: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (PC), The Last Spell (PS5), Phantom Brigade (PC), Railbound (PC, Switch).
