Episode 1: My Gaming Journey From SNES to PS5

In this inaugural episode of the Geek Fit Podcast, I take you on a journey through my personal gaming history. From my earliest memories of playing on a SNES and Mega Drive to the joys of Pokémon on the Game Boy and the excitement of first-person shooters on the Xbox, I share how my love for gaming has grown and evolved over the years. I also discuss some of the games that left a lasting impact on me and why I still play them today. Join me as I reminisce about the games that made me and the consoles that brought them to life!
