Red Barrel Report
Mike and Matt discuss Star Wars Zero Company and Control; Netflix's gaming strategy; Xbox doing a (Metal Gear?) solid for Hideo Kojima; and among other things, The Bee Gees and Neil Diamond (!?)
Red Barrel Report
Mike and Matt play The Division 2, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and Danganronpa. They also discuss their favourite games from Gamescom and the elephant in the room that is GTA VI. And they're impressed (and a little surprised) that Xbox is starting to get some things right. Enjoy!
Red Barrel Report
Mike and Matt discuss quite a few games, including the new/old Halo (good buy or goodbye?), Splatoon Raiders, Denshattack and The Mound: Omen of Cthulu. They then move on to review some good and not so good financial results from Sony, Microsoft and Capcom. They end with rants and raves about Keigo Higashino, the SuperStation One, good and cheap audio gear, and why some videogame companies are not always good at listening to their customers. Enjoy!
Red Barrel Report
Mike and Matt survey the steaming pile of wreckage that is the game industry in 2026. Please note that we recorded this after the leaks of the Microsoft job cuts but before the official announcements. We also both thought that the new Star Fox game was really quite good.
Red Barrel Report
Things are a bit different this week but we manage to talk about First Light and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, and why games are expensive. And, as per usual, we rant and rave.

FAQs
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
