A monthly discussion of mostly video games. We occasionally dip into the world of tabletop and other gaming too.
The No Quarters podcast is an incredible gaming podcast that never fails to entertain and inform. From the moment you start listening, you can tell that these guys are truly passionate about video games and enjoy discussing them in a fun and engaging way. They have a great dynamic as a group, with a nice mix of personalities that keeps the conversation lively and entertaining. Their discussions are not only informative but often hilarious, with plenty of bad jokes thrown in for good measure.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is its monthly format. While some may prefer more frequent episodes, I appreciate that the hosts take their time to play and form opinions on the games they discuss. This means that they are never just going through the motions or rushing through reviews. By the time they record a new episode, they have had ample time to fully experience and analyze each game. This ensures that their reviews are well-informed and thoughtful.
Another aspect that sets this podcast apart is its willingness to explore other aspects of gaming beyond just video games. The hosts have also touched on pinball and arcade games, showcasing their diverse interests within the gaming world. This adds depth to their discussions and keeps things interesting for listeners who may be looking for something beyond mainstream video game content.
While there aren't many negative aspects to this podcast, some listeners may find the monthly format too infrequent for their taste. As a result, there could be periods where there are no new episodes available, leaving fans waiting impatiently for more content. However, it's worth noting that when episodes do come out, they are well worth the wait.
In conclusion, The No Quarters podcast is an absolute gem in the gaming podcast landscape. It is filled with humor, knowledge, and genuine enthusiasm for video games. The hosts' unique perspectives and excellent rapport make every episode a joy to listen to. Whether you're looking for in-depth game reviews or simply want to join a group of friends as they discuss their latest gaming adventures, this podcast is a must-listen. Give it a try, and you won't regret it.
