As the year draws to a close, the New Dad Gaming duo shares their heartfelt hopes and resolutions for the new year. Trevor and Jeff reflect on cherishing the precious moments with their kids while they’re still young and finding better ways to carve out time for their gaming hobby amidst the chaos of dad life.

Inspired by listener and friend of the show Torey, the dads take on a bold new commitment: no new game purchases in the coming year. Instead, they’ll focus on tackling their ever-growing backlogs—because who doesn’t have a library of games waiting for their turn in the spotlight?

Join the dads for a candid, inspiring, and lighthearted conversation about family, gaming goals, and the joys (and challenges) of balancing it all.
