| 20 - Gaming & Relationships #1 : Reddit Stories | 07 Apr 2026 | 00:38:59 | |
In this episode, I’m trying something a little different. Since I don’t have listener submissions just yet, I went through some Reddit stories about gamers and non-gamers in relationships and picked a couple to talk about. I share my thoughts on the situations, what might be going wrong, and the kind of advice I’d give. If you’ve ever felt like gaming was causing tension in a relationship (on either side), this one’s for you.
