Game on Girl

We have an eclectic show for you this week. We take on several different topics in one show! Introducing a new segment, we talk about gender stereotypes in commercials. "Gender Sells" will become a regular segment and one we'd love to hear your suggestions about. Then we talk about two short Wonder Woman videos shared with us by a listener. We also talk about game narratives that aren't inherent to the game. Then we WRaP up with how we're geeking out this week. So many good topics, such a great conversation!

BuzzFeed which chronicled many racist Tweets about the crowing of Nina

Davuluri, the first Indian-American to win the title. From there, Ben Kuchera at Penny Arcade and Alyssia Rosenberg from Think progress posted responses to the idea that public shaming might be used as a learning tool in these situations. We discuss the idea of public shaming and whether or not it is an effective tactic for dealing with ideological differences. Let us know what you think on the site, www.gameongirl.com.

Two of our favorite things at Game on Girl cross paths today: tabletop and video games. Simon Berman from Privateer Press joins us to discuss the Kickstarter for WARMACHINE: Tactics. Tactics takes Privateer Press's popular tabletop miniatures game and translates it to digital format. If that wasn't awesome enough, the solo player campaign has a kick ass female lead!
