We're back from The Game Awards and a week away in Los Angeles to recap GB@Nite, the Countdown to TGAs, and other miscellaneous shenanigans we had together! We also find some time to talk about all of the announcements from last week and your emails!

We got together before we're actually all together in Los Angeles to chat about Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Marvel Rivals, and a handful of other games. We also chat about more Switch rumors resurfacing, LEGO Fortnite updates, and even more news until the Game Awards dominates the news cycle later this week!
