    Episode #78 - Catlandia, DON’T WAKE THE NIGHT, and Soft Underbelly with Alisha Maynoush Mernick

    This week, we have artist, educator, parent, and justice-seeker Alisha Maynoush Mernick on the podcast. She regales us about a recent series of unfortunate events with a freemium mobile game, sings the praises of some little-known app called "Tik-Tok", and updates us on gaming as a parent. She also absolutely ROASTS Alex in Eric's stead.  Here's what we played this week: Catlandia: Crisis at Fort Pawprint, by Polar Tabby DON'T WAKE THE NIGHT, by Brujería At Werk Soft Underbelly, by atelier✦zorra Our cause this week is Plan C. Plan C is an information campaign, started by a small but mighty team of veteran public health advocates, researchers, social justice activists and digital strategists. Plan C transforms access to abortion in the US by normalizing the self-directed option of abortion pills by mail. Check out their website for more information about this extremely pressing cause. We've donated to Plan C -- we encourage you to do the same. If you let us know, we will shout you out on a future episode.
