      <description><![CDATA[<p>We are beyond blessed to be joined by Amy Mallett. Star and "wearer of multiple hats" at Future Games show, playstation, IGN and so so much more, Amy is a true pioneer and we get to learn why games' media is not what you think it is and why stacking as many skills as you can still remains the key factor in a successful career. </p><p>Amy dives into what has made her career journey special, why you can "fail forward", how saturation does not have to be a negative and what it takes to stand out from the rest of the pack. </p><p>We discuss what the regular person doesn't quite appreciate about working in the industry, the differences between company targets or goals, and a where we feel gaming and games' media is headed. </p><p>This is without doubt, a bucket list episode for me. Amy is a delight and a fountain of knowledge, and someone I've admired for a long time.</p><p>@AmyMallet</p>]]></description>

Diversifying your content isn't the main goal, but maybe using more platforms is the way forward. </p><p></p><p>The boys show is amazing and the banter and chemistry between them in palpable, but they also have  time for real deep dive debates and entertaining content.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Episode 98 (finally) brings up MediocreRetro. I've followed Jay since I started my content journey and this is definitely someone who deserves more shine. </p><p>In this episode Jay explains why the art of restoration is key in the Video Game industry. Too often we lose games and IP's to time because we lack the ability (or desire) to maintain them. </p><p>Jay's gets into why they enjoy the tech side of gaming, and how being introduced to the "older" generation of games at an early age has enabled them to make friends and transcend generations in the real world. </p><p>An INCREDIBLE coaches questions segment would be enough here, but we share some invaluable insight into things seldom mentioned in gaming, and some things we definitely need to be considering more as time moves forward </p><p>@MedirocreRetro</p><p>@coachmarvgaming</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I absolutely love this man. A DJ, content creator, football referee and general down to earth gem, I met Stevie back in 2020 after discovering him on twitch and becoming a subscriber ever since. </p><p>We've been friends since then and I'm proud to have him on the show to showcase what content he has cooking over the next period, and to let him know just how he has meant to me personally. </p><p>We get into who he is as a gamer, and have a tough discussion on how gaming can help with mental health, personal battles, and bring people together. </p><p>A football-fiend, we also discuss the rise and fall of football games, why the genre is so toxic, and why sports games in general need to take a hard look at themselves. </p><p>We hit home about how parenting with video games has changed, have a PASSIONATE discussion about Vice City vs San Andreas, and another PASSIONATE breakdown of Wrestling Games now vs then. </p><p>Finally, I get a chance to sincerely thank him. He was a key, key factor in me getting through the pandemic and beyond. Just being a friend, someone to chat to, someone who is sincere, down to earth and someone I found comfort in watching regularly and getting to know. </p><p></p><p>Please please please, check out Stevie on all socials. </p><p>@StevieMcCoy</p><p>@CoachMarvGaming</p><p></p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>It is my pleasure, and my honour, to bring you Retro G. </p><p>One of my first follows on tiktok and someone I've admired since I joined the app, Retro G is one of the nicest creators ever and someone who produces great content. </p><p>He speaks to creating his own niche within content and how his "non-gamer" approach to collecting and gaming makes him different. </p><p>We chat about managing our time and prioritising the things the make us tick. We discuss his collecting journey and how his battle with Retro Revival has reignited his love for "hunting games in the wild". And we talk his love for roller coaster tycoon. </p><p>We also get to hear him build his ultimate tiktok creator, made up of some of the famous names you hear. Such a cool idea!</p><p>@Retro_G</p><p>@coachmarvgaming</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>The host of one of the most warm and welcoming pages on TikTok, I ask the hard questions and decipher what makes her angry! All while she makes me angry chatting about the negatives of Okami...</p><p>We discuss her background in acting and how it drives her gaming journey. We also tackle how her athletic injury reignited her joy for the medium at large. </p><p>In coaches questions we explore the more random games that bring us peace - I'm a Doom Guy apparently - and determine whether games have a place in therapy. </p><p>She points out some wonderfully charming creators in Creator Spotlight. </p><p>@chillandcomfortgaming</p><p>@coachmarvgaming</p>]]></description>
