Season 20 begins with flourish and 3 Gs. Growth, Gubbins, and GAMA!

Growth: We introduce a new format for the show, allowing the podcast, the award programs, and the Spiel Foundation time and space to grow.

Gubbins: Co-Op Corner, a new segment hosted by our very own Gubbins makes its debut. We explore Zoo Break. Try to keep pandas, meerkats, snakes, rhinos, tigers, elephants and other critters from escaping into the city.

GAMA: Erwin Susara and I recap our adventures at the GAMA Expo, taking a deep dive into the event, the organization, and our hope to build an even greater community for the foundation and beyond.
