Geek Native's Audio EXP

Audio EXP is Geek Native's weekly highlights podcast. RPG news, geek TV, movies, tech, anime and computer games are curated and chatted about each weekend. Episodes are short with a few of the more significant stories from the week discussed and in just a little more detail than news headlines. This is a podcast for which you don't need to catch up on older episodes, not unless old news is of interest, and you can dive straight in with the latest broadcast.
