I'm Maddy Myers!

I'm an editor and journalist, a a podcast host, and a synth-pop musician.

Right now,

I'm the Senior Games Editor at Polygon. I’m also a co-host of the video game podcast Triple Click along with Kirk Hamilton and Jason Schreier.

I co-host an X-Men podcast called The Mutant Ages with my good friend and frequent collaborator Ryan Pagella. We also have a Mutant Ages YouTube channel with Let’s Plays of X-Men games, comedy skits, and more.

I also write songs about Metroid and feelings. 

Previously,

I used to be the Deputy Editor of Kotaku. Before that, I was an editor at The Mary Sue. Before that, I was the Assistant Editor of Paste Magazine's games section. Before that, I worked at the Boston Phoenix from 2007 to 2013. My freelance writing has appeared at Offworld, iMore, Kill Screen, re/Action, Slice of MIT and MIT Technology Review.
I used to play the keytar and sing lead vocals in a rock band called The Robot Knights.
Over the years, I have co-hosted several podcasts and shows that are no longer in production: Let's Watch 2 Movies (movie review podcast), Insomniacs in the Morning (morning chat show), Isometric podcast (gaming news podcast), Samus and Sagat (comedy skit show).

Well, that's about it!
