Meet Evolved
David, of Dublin, Ireland, was brought into the Halo universe when his friend placed him in front of a TV, thrusted over the Duke, and ordered to drive the Warthog so his friend can "shoot all the Stuff." From there led a wondrous tale of Xbox consoles and The Fall of Reach birthday gift, often recounted many times through Podcast Evolved's history.
Located in North Ireland, Aaron is one half of Podcast Evolved's Irish awesomeness. Aaron was introduced to Halo in 2005 after borrowing the first three novels from a friend and becoming hooked. Needing to know more, he went straight out and picked up an Xbox along with Halo: CE and Halo 2, beginning his love affair with the franchise.
Oran cheekily works in the film and television industry but has always been eager to absorb more Halo. He discovered podcasting in 2012 while the anticipation built for Halo 4 and enjoyed listening to the passion from other Halo fans. In 2014, he jumped into the Evolved community during the MCC hype-train, and quickly became a full-fledged panelist on Episode 52.
Host of Mission Debrief, Colin’s been a gamer ever since he first laid eyes on Super Mario Bros. and Kid Icarus back in the 80s, yet Halo didn’t sink its hooks into him until the lead in to Halo 4. Since then, he’s absorbed all the games, books, comics, and videos, and soaked in as much Halo as possible while maintaining a marriage and keeping 3 children alive.
When not working on the website and Blogging Evolved, he is probably playing Halo or reading a Halo novel. Ian has been a Halo fan almost since day 1, but only got into the lore in 2015. He doesn't make it onto the podcast often, but he does his best to keep the website up and running, and regularly contributes to the blog.
Miles is the creator of seemingly endless Halo-themed art, including the current Podcast Evolved logo and the Mission Debrief artwork. He continues to create more awesome Halo art for his Tumblr page, which we all strongly recommend you visit immediately.
Co-host of Builds with Blocks, Matt was introduced to the Halo Universe through Halo 3 back in 2007! Though he possesses zero skills on the Halo battlefield, he has always loved the lore of Halo. His fandom for Halo skyrocketed when he discovered the Halo Mega Bloks sets. Since then Matt has been building, playing, and stop motion animating with these Halo sets.
Co-host of Builds with Blocks, Tom was introduced to the Halo Universe through Halo 3 - much like his buddy Matt! A fan of the narrative over the multiplayer, Tom has been into the Mega Bloks (now Mega Construx) sets for many years and aims to use his keen eye for photography to try and create new and distinctive narrative stories for Halo fans of all ages to enjoy.
Co-host of Podcast Evolved and I Would Have Been Your Podcast. He started playing video games in the 90’s with his N64 (Legend of Zelda) and Game Boy Color (Pokemon). He found Halo in the early 2000’s, but didn’t dive deep into the lore until the release of Halo 3 in 2007. Since then, he’s tried to read every piece of lore possible, and has a love for Halo 3 ODST specifically. Currently he is working on an ODST kit for future conventions.

With his insightful discussions, in-depth analysis, and genuine enthusiasm, Josh creates an engaging and informative experience for listeners, making HCS Pro Talk a top choice for Halo fans.
