Gamer's Guide to Ecology

I play popular open-world RPGs from an ecological perspective. On “Gamer’s Guide to Ecology” I dive into topics like plant and animal interactions, animal behaviour, evolution, and the impacts of the game's characters on in-game biodiversity.

Bonus Episode - Exploring Horror with Stephen Indrisano

In this special bonus episode of GGE, I'm joined by Stephen Indrisano to chat about the Horror genre; something I've always steered clear of because I'm a super wimp. Stephen joined the podcast to talk about things like; what makes something horror, how horror changes with society, how difficult it is to actually scare someone, and horror's connection with the environment. Stephen is a DC-based voice actor, writer, and podcast producer of all things Horror. He produces Bloody FM's Regarding Dracula, and he can be heard on Mayfair Watcher's Society, The SCP Archives, and ROGUEMAKER. His upcoming docu-horror, Shelterwood: A Suburban Gothic is crowdfunding in July of 2023. You can find out more about Shelterwood at ShelterwoodPod on Twitter or Tumblr, or via email at shetlerwoodpod@gmail.com. Go support the show's crowdfund at bit.ly/shelterwoodpod ! Find me, Jessie on tumblr @ just-jessie-d or on instagram @ just.jessie.d Podcast art by Lara LeBlanc. The theme music is "Rain Song" by Bret Eagleston - check out Bret's music on Spotify or https://breteagleston.bandcamp.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep.21 - Kirby and the Forgotten Land

I`m back! For the first episode of Season 2 I'm chatting with Matt Storm. Matt's a longtime lover of the Kirby franchise and the perfect choice to give me the lore rundown of this lovable pink blob. In this episode we talk about our falling out with gaming consoles, Kirby's mouthful modes and combat abilities, and the real-world similarities of Kirby's ability to "sequestering". Find Matt at https://linktr.ee/dj_stormagedddon Find me, Jessie at https://www.tumblr.com/just-jessie-d P.S., Sorry starting season 2 took so long. Life happened! Listen to the extra bit after the outro for my excuses.

Ep.20 - Just Chatting: Pokemon Legends Arceus

In the final episode of Season 1 I'm joined by photographer, podcaster and D&D 5e actual play streamer Josh Bingaman (@josketh on Twitter). Josh and I nerd out about what it was like to grow up playing Pokemon, what keeps us coming back (time and time again) to the games, what we think of the newest game "Pokemon Legends: Arceus" and what it could mean for the franchise moving forward.

Ep.19 - Ecology, Evolution and Pokemon Legends: Arceus

I have been a fan of Pokemon for 20 years, and this game is a dream come true.

CW: Please be advised that this episode discusses plot points in the Witcher 3 that relate to suicide and violence against women, as well as characterization of LGBTQ2IA people and people with disabilities.

Ep. 17 - Monster Ecology in the Witcher 3

In this episode I chat about Geralt, Ecologist of Rivia, er... Witcher. Come learn about how real-life necrophages help maintain the nutrient cycle, why I think Insectoid monsters are incorrectly named, and hear the proof that some monsters in this game are highly eusocial.

Ep.16 - Just Chatting: Wandering Aimlessly in No Man's Sky

Special guest Adam Fortais (@AdamFortais) joins Andrew and I to discuss the overwhelming freedom to explore in No Man's Sky. We chat about similar open-galaxy games, and what we liked and disliked about them. We also meander into the topic of why we're hesitant to play online multiplayer games, and what people get out of playing simulator-type games. Fun fact, Adam says it's possible to launch your spaceship into space using a large enough rubber band!

Ep.15 - Limitless Exploration in No Man's Sky

The most open of open-world games, explore the galaxy (and all life contained within) in No Man's Sky! Hear about weird combinations of features that creates super bizarre lifeforms of immense variety (quintillions!). Is it Pokemon in space, Minecraft in space, or a cartoon version of Space Engineers? That's up to you! Podcast art by Lara LeBlanc, theme music by Bret Eagleston (@breadeagles, breteagleston.bandcamp.com) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
