Sinopse
Laser Time is a show featuring folks in the video games industry, although not necessarily about video games. Its a hyper-silly, multimedia-infused look at film, TV, comics, music, pop culture, and nostalgia from the perspective of people who game for a living. Obviously, their opinions are their own and do not reflect that of their employers.
