About This Episode
Gen Con Online was crazy. We played a ton of games and streamed every last second of that experience. We know and share the sentiment that we “Would rather be at Gen Con”, but when life gives you lemons, you stream those lemons on Twitch. But how did it go? Was it worth the time and effort to put it all together? Well, that’s what we wanna’ talk about this week on the Free Play Podcast.
