Virtual Reality (VR) is an ever changing and growing space where people can experience being part of the media they love most. Controser and his co-hosts FlatConnoisseur and Zycu have over 20 years of experience combined with the technology and video games!

In this episode we will be discussing just how much the medium has changed since we first started playing VR until now. We will also be covering some of the latest VR news, VRChat worlds we recommend you check out, and games that we love.
