ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
What’s up Guardians, welcome to the newly branded Guardian Down Roundtable. We’re a weekly gaming podcast and our mission is simple: 4 topics among 4 friends with a focus on our gaming community. I call you all Guardians because we have a long history with Bungie and the Destiny franchise, and as our show (which was formerly Guardian Down Cast) has grown for nearly 7 years covering this beloved game, we are flying higher and taking a 30,000 foot view bringing to YOU topics surrounding our gaming hobby. Topics including the entertainment/gaming industry, social media, tech and whatever else may impact our love of gaming.
The rules are simple, every week we invite members of our community to join us in the conversation by bringing a topic of their own that they want to share with all of us. My co-host Mr. Kingsleymac and I will be here every week while the two other chairs around the table rotate among a list of guest co-hosts hand-picked by us.
Once per month, we invite a brand new member of our community, someone who has been actively involved and has made an impact in our discord server and then we hear THEIR story while they also share a topic of their own at the table.

I lead with the main point: Arc Raiders will receive a major update on October 8 and a PvE‑only test will run October 13–20.
