Episode description

When it comes to #gamers, a lot of us collect things. It just goes hand in hand, you collect things in games, so naturally you may be compelled to in real life. Whether these be the games themselves, art pieces, stamps, hats, sneakers, Pokemon/Magic cards, or anything. Today we wanted to talk about why we collect things, when does it just become junk, and how our collecting habits have changed over time.
