Show Notes

We start this episode by circling back to some rather important reporting that came out between recording and publishing our last episode: an important article from Rebekah Valentine at IGN on some real and difficult stories of workplace culture at Bungie, developer of Destiny 2. There have been some developments and responses since then, so we touch on those while we're at it. Then, as something of a palate cleanser after such a heavy topic, we continue with the 30th Anniversary event and welcome the return of the Dawning event this week.
