Description: Hey y'all! Your co-hosts both have some stuff going on: big house moves for both of us, and an opportunity to see family after over more than a year for Jamie! With that in mind, in lieu of introducing you to a new guest this week, we're sharing our first-ever live episode! This was originally recorded in February during UPLINK 2021- the largest gaming conference celebrating gaming history and retro games.

Pixel Therapy (Trailer)
Release Date: 09/10/2020
Description: Launching Sep 22, 2020, Pixel Therapy Pod is a podcast about the emotional connections we form with video games. We believe that video games can serve as tools for understanding ourselves, each other, and the world around us— and we want to celebrate gaming in its many contexts: as a hobby; as an art form; as therapy.Every episode, hosts Spencer (they/them) and Jamie (she/her) invite a guest from inside (or completely unrelated to) the gaming industry to chat about their relationship to gaming, how gaming connects and interacts with their identities, and how a specific game has influenced their life in a meaningful way. The show focuses on people who have historically been underrepresented or invisible in the industry, centering the experiences of QT/+POC folks and challenging conventional notions of what it means to be a gamer— and who gets to call themselves one.New episodes drop every other week on Tuesdays.
