Hi Allies!
After last week's photo finish poll, I have another tough one for you. Since E3 is nearly here, this week you'll be choosing between three different kinds of streams. Our options:
E3 Trailer Hypefest - Each Easy Ally will bring one trailer for a game they're excited to see more of at E3. We'll take turns watching the trailers and discussing the games afterward. It's like the Hall of Greats but everyone wins.
The Eas...

I found myself in a strange land filled with many peacocks and it was all quite bizarre.

Now that we've cleared $44,000 for the month of May, I've been given the go-ahead from Jones to announce that Box Peek is happening! Thank you for backing my goofy concept. I should remind everyone that this was a one-time goal to raise the $2,000 extra US dollars I wanted to fund the series. The Easy Allies member in me knows that we'll really have to work to maintain this monthly total, but the other part of me is just excited that I get to ...

This month we will be adding a "What have you liked recently" discussion to the top of the show, this discussion will be fun and light and not related to the theme, this will be the place for us to gush about movies and shows that we're loving right now!

Hey there! Here's the EZAnime poll for the month of June. I know many of you have wanted us to cover sports anime on the show and the time has finally arrived!! Although it was hard trimming the list down to five, we wanted a contentious list, much like we had with the comedy theme and we didn't want to flood the poll with too many options. Whichever choice wins, we'll discuss the series on JUNE 30.
VOTING CLOSES ON JUNE 6 AT 12:01 A.M. Whatever is in the lead at that time wins the poll.

CORRECTION AND TIMESTAMPS BELOW
Today on Frame Trap, we're mixing it up! We've got two panelists instead of the usual three, but the conversations are spicier than ever. We discuss heavy hitters like Injustice 2 and Fire Emblem Echoes as well as smaller things like GNOG and Werewolves Within. For the HOTTAKE, we consider how important it is to consider games from a global perspective.

Time for me to pour out some Cups before we get into the madness of E3. I had planned for this to be two separate episodes, but wanted to get this stuff out ASAP. Lots to update you on - stretch goals, E3 plans, and improvements to EZA HQ. I'll be producing an editorial and a Q&A episode in the coming days. Hard to believe we've hit 45K. But then it feels like anything is possible with this community. Thank you.

Hi Allies!
I'm here to collect your topics, questions, and games for the Love & Respect segment of this week's Easy Allies Podcast. On this episode we'll be covering the middle two press conferences, Bethesda and Ubisoft, so if you have an E3 L&R I would suggest:
- A weird Bethesda or Ubisoft question I wouldn't bring up in the normal conversation
- Something we forgot to talk about last week
- Any aspect of E3 outside of Sony or Nintendo, which w...

EDIT: I see a lot of questions about setting up multiple VR headsets for Star Trek to fill out the whole crew--we will only be able to do 2 at most: 1 PSVR and 1 Vive. Sorry for not being clearer on that!

One of the interesting parts of putting these polls up is gauging where you, our audience, are feeling. Many of you leave comments, but many more of you simply click on your option and say no more, and so there's just noth...

Hey this week Kyle and I check out the spooky game Perception where you play as chatty old Cassie and she goes through a spooky house and she's blind and you see by tapping her cane. It's pretty cool!

Hi Allies!
As we have just completed our dumb game Stolen last week, this means it is now time for the pendulum to swing back over to Fun Game Monday. As opposed to its dumb counterpart, there are no rules for voting on Fun Game Monday. You can google the games all day, and even pick one you've played a thousand times. Just remember that we will play through the entirety of the winning game week by week until we hit credits. Our nominees are:

Hey everyone! Here's my review for Echoes. Having not played Fire Emblem Gaiden (which this is a remake of), I wasn't sure how I'd take to the deviations in mechanics and presentation. It turns, they feel like a welcome change of pace. Echoes requires a lot of care and consideration during fights and its world is very well presented. The game exceeded my expectations and I hope you enjoy the review!
