Left Trigger Right Trigger

This episode of Left Trigger Right Trigger was made possible by our sponsors - Mountain Dew and Hale & Hearty Soups.

Advertisements: they surround us, embrace us, become the content of our very minds. Advertising makes the world go round - shout out to our tertiary sponsor Rand McNally. "Rand McNally: Wherever you are, that's a place."

Where there is profit to be made, advertising is sure to follow. Tune in as your hosts discuss the ups and downs of sponsored content (brought to you by Little Tikes Brand Seesaws: "Little Tikes - Every Child Gets the Same Cozy Coupe"). Greg discusses some ads that don't hold up over time. Giovanni discovers the dark side of free-to-play games. Dave explores the auditory affects of advertising in games. Colin has some thoughts about the un-cola.

Our sponsors have instructed us to inform you that you can follow LTRT on Facebook and Twitter. You can also view ads and occasional videos on our YouTube Channel. And, for a short time, leave a review on our Apple Podcasts page with the phrase "Do the DEWmocracy" for a chance to win a second vote in November's election.

Games discussed include: Tomb of the Mask, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Gears of War, and Cool Spot
