Join Caitlin and Alan—two mediocre gamers—as we play video games. Why do games hit different from movies, books, or anything else? We’re not pros, we’re not streamers, and we die a lot. But we’ve got big questions, weird takes, and a love for the hobby. Welcome to Inferior Gaming! Where being bad at games is half the fun.
