Get Played

How!? No 301st episode should start so well!! After that 300th, too?!? You 4 are a treasure that needs to be protected at all costs 😆🥸 side question; what else is The Merchant mid maxing these days??

This was a fascinating podcast back when the hosts forced themselves to play terrible video games and discuss them. Now it's a middling podcast where the hosts aren't required to do anything except show up and talk, and most of the talk isn't topically relevant to modern gaming and revolves around older PlayStation games and franchises and...Fortnite, I guess? Worse, the discussions are heavily padded with a grating impersonation of a single Resident Evil character. I get this is a passion project, but there are a lot of gaming podcasts out there and there are better choices for your feed. It's sad, because the hosts are personable and often funny, just seemingly unmotivated.

There are SO MANY podcasts out there, and a lot of them are really good. Somehow, though, none has captured the perfect balance of charm, enthusiasm, and downright weirdness quite like Get Played. The hosts have such great chemistry, and I love that they seem to be having just as much fun as the listener. They’ve developed a great community among their listeners and I’ve come to really love and respect their opinions even when I don’t feel the same. Probably the only podcast where I listen to every new episode within a day or two of release.

Consistently the funniest video game podcast I listen to. Would recommend to anyone with ear holes.
