The State of the Union (Part 1)

Welcome to the gaming podcast where it's not my opinion that counts - but yours! Listen in each episode as Josh sits down for lengthy chats with passionate people about the things we love. Today, I sit down with North for part one of an epic four hour chat we had about the state of affairs with Classic at the moment, covering everything from guilds and logs, to Wrath and the April 19 event. Be sure to tune in next week for the huge second part to this chat where we chat for 2+ hours on the effect that GDKP's have had on Classic culture and what it means for the future of MMO gaming.
