Free Play Ep. 8 | UFOs & XACs

SHOW NOTES

With the band all back together for this episode, it doesn’t take long before they are swapping stories about UFO sightings and the possibility of time travel.  If you manage to make it through all of that nonsense, there is actually a bit of useful information hidden in episode 8 as Bubba, Matt and Kate talk about the importance of Xbox’s new Adaptive Controller (XAC for short).
