Hello Hello!
The world is socially (and physically) distancing, so what is there to do?
Joining Adam and Matt on this episode is a returning special guest to talk gaming in quarantine. We sit down virtually with the Manager of the Durham College Esports Arena, Sarah Wagg! Our hosts talk to Sarah about how this pandemic is bringing gaming and esports to the masses via mainstream media, and celebrity endorsement. We also discuss how gaming has been a great coping mechanism for anxiety and stress during isolation for so many. All this plus, the rise of Animal Crossing, concerts in virtual worlds, and of course Adam slags on Fast 9 yet again. So listen in once more as we continue to fill your ears with our Xennial point of view on The Happy Xen Podcast!

Skipping Rambo 4 is really cheating yourself out of a great movie. I’d say it’s the third best Rambo. However, having seen all the F&F movies I realize I only really like 2 or 3 of them so Adam isn’t missing much
The fact that the WHO put out a statement on gaming addiction is mind blowing. Thankfully they didn’t do this when I was 10 years old
