The UK video games industry is worth £7.16 billion. So what does your organisation need to know about the opportunities and risks it offers? This week we chat to George Osborn, Head of Campaigns and Communications for UKIE, the UK video games industry trade body, about inclusion in the gaming industry, how charities and fundraisers can tap into the potential of gaming, and what the state of gaming tells us about wider digital trends. Zoe and Paul also talk about the Runnymede Trust's report on women of colour in the workplace, and whether we're too dependent on the algorithms of music streaming services.

With a few days still remaining until the 2017/18 Premier League season kicks off, we thought it made sense to focus on our second pre-season show on some of the biggest topics – we’ll get into specifics of our starting line-ups later this week. Ryan Keaney and George Osborn are back to talk Josep Guardiola’s rotation policy and how it will affect scoring for Manchester City’s attackers, the three newly promoted teams and who will be in our squads, brand international signings arriving into the Premier League and finally, consistent scorers.It’s a little bit longer than we expected it to be; but it should give you plenty to think about ahead of Gameweek 1 starting this Friday.

PlayerUnknown's Battleground has sold 4 million copies in 3 months. How has this happened? And who let this happen? And how do we stop it? A game that steals from DayZ without shame, it's an epidemic that's running more wild than Hulk Hogan. This GTA 5 also climbed back to the top of the UK charts, proving how stupid the industry is, while Activision proves that it lied to everyone by releasing COD: Modern Warfare Remastered as a standalone title. Throw in that Angela Merkel , the German chancellor, is opening GamesCom 2017, and it's been a ridiculous 7 days. So sit back, join Simon Miller and George Osborn as they run through everything that happened in the week in gaming...

Halo 6 is "not expected anytime soon" but what exactly does that mean? Is it because developer 343 Industries is just fine tweaking the template, or could this be the start of something brand new for the series? That's the question Simon Miller and George Osborn ask this week on 'The Week In Gaming' as well as look at IO going independent and getting the rights to the Hitman IP, cry over the fact 70k nerds went to E3 2017, explore the rumours around Shadow Of The Tomb Raider and question what Microsoft's plans are going forward.

Daniel Frost (@ThisDanFrost), Peter Willington (@xeroxeroxero), and special guest George Osborn (@GeorgeOsborn) from The Deep Lying Podcast (@TheDeepLyingPod) record a strategy and management games special! The chaps kick off with quite possibly one of the geekiest games ever: Football Manager 2017 and we hear all about its complexities, rewarding depth, and surprising accessibility for non-football fans. And then we try to build a pacifist empire with Bapu Gandhi in Civilization VI, discussing the changes and improvements from the previous outing and why it's basically the ultimate board game. Also, the baby iguanas from Planet Earth II :( For The Deep Lying Podcast - http://deeplyingpodcast.co.uk/For links to topics covered - http://stayingin.podbean.com/Find us on Twitter - https://twitter.com/StayingInPod
