This is my first podcast in a very long time... and I'm coming back to you with a new format. I'm taking this on with a solo approach, and really embracing the 'tangents' aspect of the name, and just going on some short rants covering topics and ideas that are important to me!Episode #11 covers some topics related to streaming and content creation, as well as the close of Mixer. I've seen a huge array of different mentalities in my peers and fellow streamers since it happened, and I've had these thoughts for a while now.I hope you enjoy it!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/artbygalen)
