S(enior)-tier Gamers

In conjunction with World Senior Citizen’s Day that falls on the 21st of August every year, GGWP speaks to three senior gamers that are trying to challenge the perception that seniors can’t game or don't really understand them. Trish Lim, Nahar Johari and Philip Tang picked up gaming to try something new and different in their lives, and have now been bitten by the gaming bug. They play Counter Strike and Valorant together and connect with other gamers, young and old alike. They join us on the show to share the stories of how they got into it and why they advocate for their peers to join them as well.
