Episode description

Joined by special guest Ben from Qualbert.com, this episode Zach and Brendan dive into a discussion regarding the past, present and future of the video game journalism landscape in Australia. How different is the media we consume (and how we consume) compared to when this trio were growing up in the late 90s/early 2000s? How do these experiences shape the media we consume and produce?

Ben shares his insight and experience of building an enthusiast, volunteer-run gaming news and review website, together with transitioning into the gaming industry as a career.
