Scandalous Games

"Killology" "Expert" Dave Grossman, Part 12: You can't spell "discredited research" without "research"


Listen Later

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Andy Hunter, Kate Lynch, and Phil Thomas. We continue looking at what Dave has been up to over the past decade and how the self-proclaimed killologist may be putting out more work into violent video games, quantity still doesn't equal quantity. Plus, what does it mean when a guy who thinks Bible says it's OK to kill every now and then also says the video game industry is warping kids minds?

Topics discussed include:  Kevin shows his privilege when it comes to handling explosives at the airport, the gang dissects that lost scene from Jaws, and we finally get to the bottom of whether we really eat eight spiders in our sleep. Plus, some more rounds of Pokémon or Prescription Drug?
