    A special bonus episode of Termite's Buzz all about The Game Awards. Termite took a legendary trip across the country to celebrate TBone's 40th Birthday. I discuss the trip, our experience, the people we met, and review The Game Award show itself. I end the show with my favorite announcement and moments in the show!
