Second Wind is a video-based entertainment outlet focusing on video games and other forms of popular media. The group received significant media attention upon its formation, having been founded by former video team members of The Escapist media outlet, including editor in chief Nick Calandra and Yahtzee Croshaw.[1] The founding followed Calandra's firing on 6 November 2023 from The Escapist by parent company Gamurs.[2][3]

As The Escapist retained the rights to Zero Punctuation,[3] Croshaw now hosts a direct successor titled Fully Ramblomatic, which was the initial name of Zero Punctuation prior to the Escapist's acquisition of the property.[4][non-primary source needed] Second Wind continues to publish other shows formerly published on The Escapist which the creators retained the rights to, including Adventure is Nigh! and Design Delve, whilst also streaming on a frequent basis and producing new shows including Bytesized and The Backdrop.
