EXP Podcast #575: A Conversation Only Somewhat About Games

This week on the EXP Podcast, we share a meandering conversation somewhat about games and somewhat about the ongoing racial injustices that are on everyone's mind. We encourage you to skip this episode if it's not what you need right now.

We also encourage you to stay educated, stay safe, and stay active via donations, direct action, or however you can.

We mention it in the episode, but we also want to shout out the Spawn On Me Podcast, especially the episode embedded below. Absolutely give this a watch.
