    Episode #6: The Entertainment Software Association and E3

    Somehow remaining topical with the cancellation of 2023 E3, we discover the origin story of the video game industry coming together in a landmark moment to face an onslaught of regulations. With Doug Lowenstein, Michael D. Gallagher, and Stanley Pierre-Louis taking the reins, we see a tale of legal battles, electronic techno music, and terrific industry positions dot the timeline as we observe almost 30 decadent years of a marvel and often confusing organization.
