SHOW NOTES
Matt, Bubba, and I are ALL playing Ghost of Tsushima and we wanted to chat more about our in-game experiences. But first, we answer our good friend Frost’s question: what did Kate (aka me) do with Disney? I share some random stories about that time before we dig into what we’ve been loving (and also complaining about) Ghost of Tsushima. And that’s what we want to talk about this week on the FreePlay podcast!
