About this podcast
Releasing weekly podcasts since 2008, GameHounds brings you news, reviews, and commentary on what's going on in the video-game industry. Nick Dinicola and Edie Sellers dig deep into the important news with unique and sometimes hilarious perspectives, and they aren't afraid to argue their unique perspectives. This show is for mature audiences, as both Edie and Nick are big, fat pottymouths. Join us live on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/thegamehounds) or YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@GameHoundsVids) on Sundays at noon PT/3pm ET and watch us record the show!
