Description
The AVoCADo GamesCast is a (roughly) bimonthly gaming podcast hosted by Merve and edited by The Kappa, two people who love video games a little too much. Join them and their Internet friends as they gush about their favourite games, dissect current events, revisit gaming history, speculate about future events, and make a lot of really stupid jokes.
