Welcome To The Hello Ghostly Games Podcast

today is finally the day that I return to the world of podcasting. It’s no secret that 2018 was one of the hardest years of my life. It' was a massive struggle to get through it all and in turn, it delayed my return to producing content. I didn't think i’d ever take a year off but it happened. Every month in 2018 had some form of disaster and it made me want to not try and achieve my dreams. It was rough.

I don’t want to go into the detail as this isn’t what this post is about, I want to celebrate because of IM BACK BABY. Meet my new show called Hello Ghostly Games Podcast. I’ve been trying to perfect this show over the course of the last year and I’m finally in a place where I’m happy with the concept. It’s your standard gaming focused podcast however this one comes with a twist, a rotating segment. Each and every week one segment in the show which is called Ghost Box will change and grow as the show does. One week, we could be discussing the upcoming releases for the month and the next it could be you the community of phantoms suggesting someone to be added to THE FRIENDS LIST.

Hello Ghostly Games Podcast isn’t just my show, yeah I am the host but YOU the listener and fellow phantom will get to influence the show each and every week. Haunted Hall is basically a town hall meeting where you can send in your feedback. It could be questions, opinions, topics, corrections or even to call me out on something.

Ghost Box is also a part of the show that can be influenced by YOU.. Phantoms can suggest upcoming segment ideas, answer questions, suggest a friend for THE FRIENDS LIST and whatever else comes from that big beautiful brain of yours.

Thank you for always supporting me, in whatever endeavors I do. I appreciate it more than you’ll ever know.
