Evening Reading - April 28, 2025
It's nighttime in America, which means it is time for another edition of Shacknews Evening Reading.
Sam is the resident Australian around here who enjoys reliving his childhood by collecting Nintendo 64 games. When he's not doing that, he loves playing the Souls series, grinding in Destiny, or being a Pirate Legend in Sea of Thieves.
Growing up in Australia meant being disconnected from the rest of the world, but now in this digital age of connectivity, he's been able to meet some truly inspirational people.
You can follow him on X @SamuelChandler for some friendly banter.
