Ep 132: Pieces of Chocolate

Under the Plumbob Podcast

Happy Black History Month! Join Alley and Vaniti as they talk about what it's like being Black and a Simmer, a few of their favorite POC CC creators, some Black History facts, and what EA is doing right and (mostly) wrong when it comes to POC in The Sims.

Welcome to Under the Plumbob Podcast -- the podcast about all things related to the EA-Maxis series of games called The Sims! We avoid the real world by talking about our made-up ones. Join us weekly here at Under the Plumbob Podcast.
