What's up everybody? Welcome to kind of funny games, Deleat for Tuesday June 29th, 2021.

0:16.0

I'm one of your host Greg Miller alongside Cataco's new EIC Patricia Hernandez. Hello, Patricia.

0:23.0

Hey, how's it going? It's good. How are you? This is a huge day for you. Of course, you've

0:28.4

already been EIC for a little bit now a couple of weeks, but today's the day you put up your

0:32.0

article, hello, Cataco, it's me, your new EIC and laid out a bunch of changes for the site. How

0:36.8

are you? Uh, slightly sleep, sleep deprived because I was like up very late writing, writing that

0:44.8

and just kind of being scared. Uh, it's, it's like a whole weird thing, right? Cause like I came on

0:51.0

and then I was like, we got to cover you three, we got to make plans for you three, we have no plans,

1:43.9

and kind of what the gaming landscape looked like then and you know, the, you look at the games press

1:50.9

now and it's, it's really diverse and there's never been like a wider swath of coverage in terms

1:57.3

of topics and interests and all this other stuff. Uh, but when I was starting, I feel like, uh,

2:04.1

I don't know, coverage wasn't really based on humans, I think, or the things that made games

2:11.1

interesting. So, you know, when I was literally 21 and didn't know any better, uh, I kind of came to
