Episode 55: Self-Doubt Does Not Exist In This Dojo (w/ Grant Patterson)

Serious Fun

On this episode of Serious Fun, we tie on our headband and take it to the streets with Grant Patterson, Head Sensei of the WNFC Esports Dojo and CEO of WNFC LLC. Grant sits down with us to talk about fighting games and how his organization uses them to teach kids skills like confidence, decision-making, and determination that can help them elsewhere in life – and how they could help you, too! We also nerd out about the golden age(s) of fighting games in the way only two middle-aged dudes who have been there since basically the beginning can. If you like fighting games, the scholarship of teaching and learning, philosophy or psychology – you’ll find something to like in this one!
