Hello! Wanted to give an update on the podcast: there's no plans for future episodes, but I'll be keeping all episodes up indefinitely. They're a great resource and my small contribution to the wonderful game audio community. Thanks everyone for the support!

This will most likely be the last one for the year - good luck to everyone in their journeys!

I'm freelance but last year I made 25k with 4 part time jobs
This year I'm making about 50k in game audio.
Thankfully I also live at home with my family which helps a lot and gave me more wiggle room to slowly phase out my other jobs

I make $93k + EA stock/bonuses. Started out in the industry at $55k
Pay transparency is huge. If you're comfortable sharing, please do, even if just in private. Not talking about salary only gives huge corporations more negotiating power when hiring and expands the pay gap
