I (Steve) want to send out a huge congratulations to my friend & co-host, @jarrodbruner, on the birth of his beautiful baby girl. She is home, healthy, happy and ruining her parents' sleep schedule (just like a perfect baby should). My love goes out to Jarrod & his family.
We were honored to discuss @JohnWickHex with the game's director @mikeBithell on the show. John Wick Hex does an awesome job capturing the feeling of being the Baba Yaga in unexpected ways. If you haven't already, take a look & grab the game here:
