Hey team,
We're changing our approach to podcasting and reducing the frequency in which we produce Talk and Block episodes. We will still be doing them and uploading as audio files, but not necessarily on a weekly basis. Moving forward Catalyst and I will be doing our TB discussion format for reaction videos to major reveals and occasional discussions segments for when the format makes most sense. We're turning our media focus more toward producing other YouTube content such as video essays, of few of which are already out. We'd very much love it if you'd give our YouTube channel a look as most of the content there can be listened to in the same way a podcast discussion is. We recently uploaded videos on Street Fighter 6's Jamie as well as on the 5 strongest attacks in all of Street Fighter. Thank you so much for regularly listening to us over the last few years as this has been an exciting season of new experiences.
