Will, Kat and Jon meet in-person for the first time at the Southern Fried Gaming Expo in Atlanta, Georgia. There, they record this "true crime" episode before a live audience. Will shares the layered non-fiction tale of how Swordquest, the most ambitious game series Atari attempted for the 2600, is inseparable from the video game crash of 1983.
