ABOUT US

Somewhere in the cosmos, there's an amazing blog full of starlight and jelly beans. This isn't that blog, but it might be a close approximation.

Paul holds a PhD in astrophysics and is currently serving out his post-doc sentence at the University of California at Davis.

Bree is the Senior Editor at Massively, where she writes about video games and proofreads until her eyes bleed.

Duncan is a baby, and he mostly coos and cries and poops a lot.

PODCAST

Catch Bree every Tuesday on the Massively Speaking podcast!
