Hello everyone!
I started listening to the Thumbs starting at #8 - Green Lantern is the Blindfolded Fool, after hearing it suggested on some other cast. With an introduction like that episode, I was instantly hooked. I had been listening to pretty much every gaming podcast I could get my hands on at the time, then slowly whittled down to just GFW Radio and Idle Thumbs, and then only Thumbs. Like many of you, I'm extremely thankful for this group of guys who discusses my taste in gaming with humor and freshness.
Having read a few people's responses saying "Thumbs reminds me of talking about games with my friends", I have used this to my psychological advantage! On rare occasion, I'll get nabbed by acute anxiety while driving late at night while far from home. I've discovered that, while no music can ease my jangled nerves, listening to Idle Thumbs and hearing the genuine friendship between the guys always rights the ship, so to speak, as if suddenly they were sitting in the car and just chatting it up while I drove. Weird but true!
About me - I am a game dev who worked on AAA console titles for a little over 4 years, then very recently moved to something more PC-focused.
OK, bye.
