Midlife Gamer Podcast (podcasts)
A mature and blatantly honest Podcast that's akin to going round your mates house and talking about the gaming world, but without the dancing girls and all that messy business with biscuits and beverages. Hosts Matt and Daren bring you an adult perspective, personal views and opinions of the gaming world. Regular features include, but not limited to, the weekly round-up of news, new releases, games played and even a quiz to test your knowlegde, all peppered with their unique brand of humour. So whether its PCs, consoles or those little things you put in your pocket.. get some of this in your ears and feel the love. No matter how old you are, it's okay to be a gamer... because thumbs last longer than hips!

The Triumphant return? 
Daren and Matt catch up with real life, hitting the key points of the last few years which may or may not include some video and board games.

Matt & Daren break out of their comfort zones to bare all and entertain in front of a live audience, as part of the Midlife Gamer MLGX 2017 celebrations.

I addition to the usual stuff you'd expect your hosts pass round cake (thanks Serena!), talk about their experiences at this year's EGX, play board game 'Rhino Hero' live with audience help, bring back the Sexy Quiz, and answer questions from the audience. There's a few more surprises, but we don't want to spoil them for you!

As with most live event audio recordings, sound quality will be different, though audio was recorded direct from the desk to preserve the highest quality possible, and as be advised that some segments don't make for good radio (just blame Daren). Just like the regular podcast some might argue. Enjoy!
