He's Abroad

Jason is a video game producer in New York City. John is a VFX artist, living abroad in New Zealand. John's decided to leave the internet and news behind this year, so each week, Jason will bring him up to speed to the week's most important events while both give their perspective from opposite ends of the planet. Everything is on the table, from things as large as major world events to incidents in a local zoo. And when all is said and done, the professional credentials will get flexed to set you right with a bit of media therapy, highlighting games and movies to check out each week.
