XP Over 40
XP Over 40 is a gaming podcast by a married couple talking games, past and present. We’re everyday gamers with a love for nostalgia, co-op, and modern gaming. From childhood classics to current titles, we share our thoughts, experiences, and perspectives — sometimes casual, sometimes nerdy, always honest.

Playing games together sounds cozy… but is it really?
In this episode, we talk about what it’s actually like to play as a couple — how we do it, why we keep doing it, and why it can be surprisingly frustrating.
We get into the small things that annoy us, how differently we play, but also why we enjoy it, how it brings us closer, and how it’s helped us through some tough times.
