Normally I would not show something like this here but I had to for a certain reason. Trixie decided to list the top 10 “cute boys” in the gaming community, the press side. And a little surprising to me (only because I was further down then what I would have liked), I saw my name listed at #9 followed by DeaconBlade360 as seen in this picture

Not so surprising to me, none of the Video Game Jocks, so now, who has the best looking podcast on the internet?
