Lads Who Game
Lads Who Game is a podcast all about video games. We’ll be discussing the games we are currently playing in our ”book club” or any sort of general topic related to the industry. Founded in 2020, Lads Who Games is comprised of three members (Lad Jack, Lad Jimmy, and Lad Robert), who got together during the COVID-19 pandemic to play and discuss video games as a sort of ”video game book club”. From casual games to high-intensity RPGs, the Lads are true fans of the craft and have a lot of things to say.

Yee haw! While we're still wrangling our God of War Ragnarök thoughts and lassoing our next game, we reckoned you might fancy our retree-active thoughts on a Lads favorite, Red Dead Redemption. This franchise is an important piece of Lads history and part of it is literally tatoo'd on one of the Lads' bodies (can you make a guess?). We do what we usually do on this episode which is gush about a majority of both games with awe and then nitpick the last ten minutes of it for way too long. Enjoy!

It's everyone's favorite and least contentious part of the year: awards season! The Lads sat down to talk about The Game Awards and the general concept of game of the year. Is it a pointless reduction of art or a needed metric for the industry? Listen in to hear our thoughts and our picks for what we think will win and should win this year's top prize.

The Lads sat down this week to an attempted coup by Lad Jimmy in the roll call and to discuss the massively popular God of War (2018) ahead of this week's release of the highly-anticipated sequel, God of War Ragnarök. True Lads know we weren't fond of this game so we were excited to sit down and complain a little more to stir up some controversy. First Lad "L"? Let us know!

Chapter 2 of Season 3 coming in hot: Old School RuneScape. This is both a nostalgic and sentimental game for us and we are having a blast playing it. While fending off Season 3 spoilers from Lad Jimmy, we talk about our Halloween weekends, school snacks, haunted attics.

Due to the nature of this game's content and our discussion, we encourage anyone who may be uncomfortable with talks about depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns to consider whether or not this episode is for you. We've listed couple of resources at the bottom of this description for those in need.
New season, new name! We're excited to release the first episode under our new name talking about the first game of Season 3: Celeste. This fun, cute platform game sure caused a lot of tension between the Lads and made this episode one of our longest ever. We also talk about the Mario movie trailer, the Lads University, and more.

As we wait for Season 3 to officially kick off, The Lads thought we'd take a trip down memory lane and give a proper upload to our conversation/fight about Metroid Dread from earlier in Season 2, the first recorded discussion we ever had. We've certainly improved our set-up and personalities since then, so we appreciate your patience with the wonky audio and nervous laughter throughout.
