    Episode 28: Graduation Day

    Hey, almost everybody who worked on this podcast is receiving their degrees today! In honor of this momentous occasion, the Media Literate team organized an adorably tiny "conference" with some panels of our most frequent guests to let them talk to each other for once instead of being stuck with Kim and Laura. It's a mushy, feel-good finale. Thanks for listening.

    Episode 26: The Revolution Will Not Be Gamified

    Bri returns to drop some more game studies knowledge on Kim and Laura's heads, this time thinking about the question of agency. What does it mean to make choices in games, particularly when it comes to games that tell stories of resistance and revolution? Is there a "right" or a "wrong" ending to these games?   Some cool links for further inquiry: States and Social Revolutions by Theda Skocpol: https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=so0gddc0w3UC&oi=fnd&pg=PR9&dq=states+and+social+revolution&ots=ISK9OtQSqV&sig=wnDcQ0qzUh_IzgYE9xE6LCB-iEw#v=onepage&q=states%20and%20social%20revolution&f=false Muriel, Daniel and Garry Crawford.

    It's a mom appreciation episode!

No, Kim and Laura don't understand the movie, but hey, they've still got a whole two months left in their Master's program to figure it all out.
