In this episode, I mentioned National Coming Out Day, and highlighted one (of potentially many) streamers who will be raising money for a Children’s Hospital. I also read parts of the CMA decision (which feels unfinished), questionable influence by Sony, and the Daily Mail article about yet another sexual harassment case at Activision Blizzard. Oh, and if you happen to want to work in hell – there are plenty of job openings!
