Who doesn't love a good PlayStation podcast? PS I Love You XOXO was largely considered to be one of the very best, hosted by Greg Miller and Colin Moriarty, although the show was scrapped after the latter departed Kinda Funny under controversial circumstances back in 2017. The podcast is about to make its triumphant return, however, along with a new host.
Available every Tuesday starting next week on 6th January, Greg Miller will be joined by the new Kinda Funny Games Daily full-time host Blessing Adeoye for roughly 90 minutes of PlayStation news and features.
Alongside the return of PS I Love You XOXO, Kinda Funny revealed a new studio space four times the size of its current working environment alongside more shows and Patreon pledge goals. Will you be tuning into PS I Love You XOXO weekly henceforth? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

Cool. Will tune in and see how the first handful of podcasts go.
This is like when the Smashing Pumpkins get back together again but really it's just Billy Corgan and some dudes you never heard of.
greg miller was only tolerable when you had colin moriarty to balance him out - kinda funny became kinda **** when he left
Please watch your language. - Liam Croft.
Won't be the same without Colin tbh. Just like Sacred Symbols is nice but it isn't PSXOXO cause you don't have someone with high energy to balance with Colin.
A good time to jump back into the PlayStation podcast space what with PS5 coming
Any plans for another Push Square podcast?
The only reason to ever tune into XOXO was Colin Moriarty, I'll stick to Sacred Symbols thanks.
@Athrum yeah I thought Greg and Colin made a great team they both complemented each other. Love sacred symbols and kinda funny is ok but each have their place in the world of gaming podcasts. I will always give a PlayStation podcast a chance
Here’s the problem, as far as actually playstation goes. Greg works it, but he’s like a fanboy. Colin brought the knowledge and the history. Not to mention the really key previously was the dynamic between Colin and Greg, it was pure gold.
@Shigurui I agree. Greg was just loud and goofy. Colin brought the knowledge and gaming acumen
The ONLY thing this will have over Sacred Symbols is the industry isn’t going to blackball Miller. By the same token, Greg cares what people think too much, and that’s just one more reason I don’t really care about what he has to say. Colin and Chris have a huge podcast and the industry harbors nothing but Ill Will towards them. They will say what they want and don’t care about the consequences. That isn’t going to happen in PSILY
Do not underestimate the power of PlayStation! Now for what is, and forever will be, The Roper Report. Just the tip.
Some of the music that ended the show was great as well.
I remember these things.
I think it's too late imo. Their getting desperate since they've been losing subs and patrons, heck Colin's Last Stand gets more patreons then KF.
At the end of the day Greg neglected the PlayStation community when he cancelled it originally and wanted to give other platforms equal billing. Which is fine if that's what he wanted to do but he ran the risk of upsetting the very audience that put him there in the first place. And it ultimately showed.
Seeing everyone always talk about colin and his influence for playstation is weird to me because I didn’t even know who he was before sacred symbols. And am I the only one who watches it for chris ray gun?
Unrelated to the article I know. Just wanted to say it.
Yeah I think I'll stick with Sacred Symbols for now. Still items good to have a choice.
@Wesker God that all takes me back.
Awesome, will definitely try to catch some episodes. Still enjoy their content!
Colin and KF fans deserve better than this. I’ve been watching the KF day stream and Bless doesn’t even seem to know about PlayStation. SMH... Change the name!
I follow it if it's good, but so far I'm already satisfied with sacred symbol and sacred symbol+.
Greg Miller without Colin Moriarty to balance out his super loud personality is insufferable to me, so I will not be watching this. It's never going to happen, but I really wish those two would patch things up and work together again one day.
don't much like miller but it was a moronic decision to scrap it
@jly1987 Yeah, I don't understand why the industry (or more likely, most journalist) blackball colin, just because politics? I mean sometimes I'm on the opposing side of my friends politics but I'm still talking to them, politics is just a little part of my life, it doesn't define me, making me choose friends only on the same side, that's super weird for me.
@AdamNovice Yeah, this. The reason they can get out from ign and go solo is because playstation fans, now they're neglecting them chasing xbox and nintendo fans, I'm just not interested enough to heard others platform news in podcast so I don't watch them anymore. Also greg without colin is unbearable.
@get2sammyb Beyond! IGN back in the day, and Gamespot! I used to listen to all their stuff. Now I just listen to the Giantbomb stuff. Can’t believe Dan Rykert has left
@wiiware from an outsider looking in, and what I see in general from the games industry, it’s politics. They didn’t like him because he’s a conservative and used the first excuse possible to blackball him. Regardless where you stand politically, it’s a shame we live in a time where instead of being able to discuss things, everyone wants to just silence people who don’t feel the same as them
@mini_piekarnik Sacred Symbols is a nice replacement if you haven’t heard it. Colin and Chris also have a nice dynamic. It’s not what Colin and Greg has, but they compliment each other well
@RBMango same. Last I saw was Colin actually reached out to Greg to bury the hatchet. Greg admitted as much in a thread online somewhere. However Greg’s excuse was that because of how bad the whole situation made him feel, and the aftermath of it, he felt it’s best for himself to let his friendship with Colin stay in the past. The breakup is when I really learned that the “best friend” stuff was just a Schtick and not real like they acted. The whole situation could have been fixed easily. The problem, unfortunately is that the rest of the guys were well aware of how the industry views Colin, they decided being famous was more important than friendship. Something I find to be especially disgusting when you consider that Colin was by Greg’s side when he quite literally was in a death bed type situation.
@AdamNovice well said. Greg doesn’t care so much about his fans. He cares about his ego and being famous. It’s why he was ok with abandoning his fan base in an attempt to cover consoles that his fans didn’t particularly care about.
Lmao no thanks. I stopped listening to KF when they threw Colin under a bus over one of the most harmless jokes I've ever heard in my life. Greg, and especially Tim, revealed themselves to be awful people.
I hope it does well, I hope people enjoy it, but no chance I'm going back to them. Sacred Symbols does me just fine.
@jly1987 you're right. Greg threw Colin under the bus, he bent the knee to the twitter mob and apologised on Colins behalf, which Colin didn't want. And when Colin offered an olive branch, even though he was the one who was done dirty, Greg refused it. Greg is an awful person. He showed his true colours.
I think it is very poor taste to use the same name as Greg and Colin's podcast all things considered. Kinda Funny lost its soul when they stabbed Colin in the back. Kinda Funny plays it so safe at this point, you might as well listen to the Playstation Blog podcast instead.
@gqpenn that’s exactly why they get the access they do, because they are like company men
@oldschool1987 it’s the exact reason I pulled my patreon support years ago. They did Colin dirty, whether he’d have left on his own eventually is irrelevant, they didn’t give him the shot. Greg is a disgusting human being as far as I’m concerned. I have no doubt in my mind he’d stab Nick or Tim in the back if he needed to
@Arugula yes
@AdamNovice during colins sacred symbols podcast he actually has a bigger patreon then kinda funny games patreon and normal kinda funny patreon combined. Even though the podcast is totally free (2 days early for patreon).
Plus the worst part the dude comes from ok beast a he/him her/she kinda office.
With chris ray gun colin got the best part of it chris is an xbox guy so that can get some heated fights with colin.
Eh, I don’t know about Blessing. It’s not the same without Colin and Greg. The chemistry was key of the show’s success. I miss Colin.
@jly1987 It's kind of ironic in a way that the purpose of politics is to search for an agreement, not to divide people into each little factions.
@jly1987
The game industry's treatment of people who don't go along with their echo chamber is one of the things that absolutely disgusts me (it's very similar to media as well which is part of the reason why when I got out of the field of journalism I decided I'd never go back unless I can do so on my own terms). Now, Colin Moriarty himself at times comes off as arrogant and obnoxious, so I can see why maybe companies wouldn't want to work with him. But then you have the super loud Greg Miller who comes off as the fake happy type which in its own way is also obnoxious. But, Greg has all the same political beliefs of people like Neil Druckmann so there you go.
I agree it's a shame people can't sit down and have discussions but that's the way it is these days. Hell I've had people on this very website twist what I type about Sony's dumb censorship policy.
@jly1987 so true.
@jly1987 I couldn’t agree more. His desire to be liked will always supersede loyalty to his friends
@oldschool1987 sacred symbols is great. I hope everyone reading through the comments that hasn’t heard of it gives it a go. Definitely not as good as the golden era of Beyond with Colin, Greg and Ryan Clements.
@Scoobijohn I stopped watching when they took the pathetic stance with Colin. Before that I watched their stuff daily, but you don't stiff your mates like that over a petty joke.
@Neolit To be fair, we’ve posted about Sacred Symbols a lot. I have a lot of time for Colin.
@THEH4MM @AdamNovice these comments are bang on
wow.. Push Square might as well be called the Colin Moriarty fan club 😂
@Neolit - Umm, I did mention Sacred Symbols in this article. Did you miss the part where I mentioned Sacred Symbols? I clearly wrote Sacred Symbols. Right where I posted, in this article.
@Mad-Vampire you not like him?
@Shigurui 100% agree.
Kinda funny sucks without Colin so it's a pass from me.
@THEH4MM Same. With friends like them who needs enemies. It's just a big ole circle jerk without Colin there.
@darkswabber For Playstation gamers hes kind of impossible to miss.
