****Note: Sorry for some of the audio quality on this one. This was recorded in a rather echoey room. Our Wizard did the very best he could!**** Stephen and Amanda were joined by:  Dr. Rachel Kowert - Research Director, TakeThis.org Karlyn Meyer - President, Chicago Nerd Social Club Michael Futter - Contributing Editor, Superparent.com John Phipps - Founder, Super Deformed Gamescast At PAX East 2019 for a great parenting panel. The description is below:   "Video games have gotten a bad reputation over the years, especially among parents. But as our kids get older and the tech becomes more sophisticated, a lot of parents are afraid of losing their children to games altogether. But just as our parents didn’t lose us to video games (or television or the Em-Tee-Vee), we’re not losing our kids, either. Join us for a discussion about kids, video games, moral panics, and why Fortnite won’t melt your kid’s brain."
