Hello and welcome to Lapsed Gamer Radio. This is the weekly ‘lapsed news’ update for the week commencing July 4th. We cover some listener questions about gaming memories, jam, and Nicolas Cage, chatter a little bit about the games that we’ve been playing recently, and we’ll touch on a couple of news stories.

On today’s episode LGR Team regulars Mark and Cev are joined by listener and friend of the show Andy “The Power” Palmer!

Some of the games played this week include: KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM, OVERWATCH, BAIT! (GEAR VR), SUPER MARIO MAKER, DIVINITY: ORIGINAL SIN, DUSKERS and a handful of others.
