Welcome back everyone! We are finally back after a little bit, mostly because a recent episode that we recorded was lost. Which sucks, because it was a damn good episode. So.... we attempt to repeat some of the topics discussed in the lost episode.   In a surprising move, EA has ended their license with FIFA. This comes off the heels of FIFA asking EA for $1billion for a 4 year agreement, a steep ask given that they allegedly aren't letting EA have full creative freedom over the football game. What does this move mean for the future of European football?  Activision tells Raven software that unionizing could affect their pay as well as their benefits, in an attempt to sway the vote to unionize. Spoiler alert, it doesn't work and Raven Software proceeded with the votes. UPDATE!!! Raven voted in favor to unionize, making them the first Activision owned studio to do so!! More to be covered in the next episode!  Bobby Kotick apparently had a restraining order placed on him in 2014. Why is this now being discussed? Apparently his new girlfriend at the time worked for Facebook and had the story buried. Until now, the Wall Street Journal doing the lord's work uncovered the story and shows just how much of a POS he really is. Bobby is also under investigation for insider trading as several of his friends invested into Activision stock days prior to the Microsoft acquisition announcement. Oh Bobby.... you know how to stay in the news don't ya?  In light of the Buffalo shooting, media outlets and government officials are once again blaming video games. The Attorney General is investigating Discord, Twitch and 4chan over failure to moderate and report the shooter when he planned his actions. Once again, video games are the scapegoat of a tragedy.   These and more this week on the BLGP! Get your cup of joe and fire this episode up!
