A half general rhythm games and half osu! centered podcast episode with Etienne! I don't really do podcasts but I really enjoyed the time I had talking on his VSRG podcast previously so I decided to continue another episode of the podcast on my channel. Etienne makes great content and I highly recommend others to watch his videos too.
