I recently talked with Ogre from the Stabbing Contest podcast and blathered so much that I have the distinction of having the first show he had to cut in half. We talked about games, punk, and perhaps touched on their crossing a bit. I insulted a good portion of punk rock and perhaps some other people, including myself. We also touched on some dirty words like Gamism, Narrativism, and Simulationism. I enjoyed it and it ran about two and a half hours long. Here’s a link to the post for the first part.

Hello Clyde –
Been listening to you a while and really enjoying the things you have to teach.Also being a friend of ogres I really enjoyed being a fly on the wall in this cast.
I’m curious if I can ask you some questions about podcasting – let me know on my e-mail. Thanks

In the text there can be found fascinating discussions of driving the marginal cost of education to zero, and about how to learn the art of obsession – obsession as a good thing, as something which can make people passionate about learning (using game mechanics for instance). A text which combines technologically inspired optimism with hrsaccount social realism, and as such much needed in the discussion of the disruptive changes O’Driscoll, Wilson and others describe and predict.
