Driving to work got so much better the day I discovered podcasts. There have been a few times where I've sat in my car upon arriving at work so that I could finish listening to an episode. Podcasts are also great to listen to at home while you clean or cook. If you haven't discovered the wonderful world of podcasts yet or are looking for new…
Oh here's a surprise: there's a female CSGO team heading to China for WESG AND there is a female CSGO player heading to China to play Hearthstone too! Wait what?

Real talk time: leading up to rAge 2017 I was fed up with South African esports. It might have been that an impossible to juggle schedule and chaotic year had finally taken its toll, but I'd had enough.

My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl and this is my little space on the internet. My friends and I share our love for all things gaming, geek and gadgets here. I'm a South African Esports host and content creator. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog.
