About this listen

Inspired by the recent release of Drag x Drive on Switch 2, we’re diving headfirst into the weird and wonderful world of non-traditional controls. We’re talking the best, the worst, and the “who thought this was a good idea?” of gaming hardware — from bongos and maracas to a SpongeBob mutilated body controller.

Drop-In Drop-Out brings together a mix of seven passionate gamers for an open and engaging conversation about video games. We share our takes on the latest releases, revisit old favorites, and discuss the trends shaping gaming culture. Whether you’re here for insight, nostalgia, or just a good laugh, we hope you'll feel inspired to Drop In, listen for a while, and enjoy the ride. No controller required unless it's a chainsaw.
