New Podcast Episode - also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY WRITING ON GAMES!!! (Patreon)

First off, just want to let you know that there's a new episode of the podcast up - here's the description:

'Today is the one year anniversary of Hamish starting the channel, so what better way to celebrate than by cracking open a cold brew and smacking the power button on your soundcard? This week we're talking System Shock, we're talking Zelda Breath of the Wild, we're talking Final Fantasy VII Monopoly, we're talking terrible dumb phone VR... Oh, and if you stick around until the end, we're talking PERSONA 4, BAYBEE (in the dumbest way possible). Thanks for supporting the channel for a year - hopefully the first of many.'

Also, as you may be able to tell from the description, THE CHANNEL IS ONE YEAR OLD! Uploaded that first video on Her Story exactly one year ago just for the hell of it, thinking that no one would ever care, that I'd probably not keep it up. Here we are though, one year on, 23 video essays on the channel, 3500 subscribers, a Patreon that is more successful than I ever imagined it would be (and 100% keeps the show going), a podcast, so much other exciting stuff in the works... man. This is so cool. I've been feeling so thankful today for each and every one of you for your support of the show - whether you've been here since the very start or you've just joined me, I cannot thank you enough. I say this all the time but the sense of purpose you guys have given me is immeasurable, and whilst this dumb thing can be suuuuper stressful at times, it's also gotten me through some really dark patches. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! Here's to a bunch more birthdays, and enjoy the podcast! New video a week on Saturday.
