Hey everyone. The topic for this week's episode is the expression of violence in video games.

This episode was recorded prior to the mass shooting that happened in Texas yesterday. Though the

discussion references cultural and societal issues with violence, the scope is largely confined to the

world of gaming and its history regarding the discourse around the cultural phenomenon of violence.

In light of recent events for many of our listeners, the tone for this episode may be off.

In the spirit of keeping things light and abstract, it may not be appropriate for all listeners

at this time.

If you feel it's best to skip this one, the discussion starts at the 35-minute mark and ends at one hour in five minutes.

All right, let's go ahead and get into the show.

Okay. This is the Gamerys with Jobs conference call for Wednesday, May 25th, 2022.
