Controlled Burnes' Top 25 series continues with the introduction of Andrew's wife Reagan Burnes, who joins the podcast to share her own picks for the top 25 video games. While Reagan's time as a gamer is notably shorter than many other guests that will be joining the series, she brings a unique perspective to the medium and discussion that should make for an intriguing listen for new and longtime gamers alike.
