PBS Game/Show Might Just Be Our New Favorite Thing

We already love the PBS YouTube shows Idea Channel and Off Book, so it’s no surprise we like their new one Game/Show as well. It focuses specifically on the relationship between video games and culture, and it’s incredible. The first episode has host Jamin Warren explain the endurance of Mario, Sonic, and Link as characters. We love this. A lot.
