IGN Unionizes: What does it mean? DICE 2024 - Ep. 353
*WE HAD AUDIO TECHNICAL ISSUES FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE EPISODE.* Sorry friends, the tech gods were not on my side.
This week Andrea and Riana are on location in Las Vegas for D.I.C.E. Summit 2024. They chat about the DICE Award nominees and some quick headlines before jumping into an interview with IGN's Senior Reporter Rebekah Valentine. She discusses the newly formed IGN Creators Guild and the importance of founding a union in the video games media space.
