Ep. 14, Part 1: H.P. Mendoza's Dad, the Pac-Man King

H.P. Mendoza, director of Colma: The Musical, I Am a Ghost, and the upcoming Bitter Melon, loves video games. In addition to music and movies, they are a prominent fixture in his life. In this episode of Storied: San Francisco, H.P. will talk about the origins of that love of video games. He and I also talked about a couple of the long-gone video game arcades in SF. We recorded this podcast in December 2017 at H.P.'s house. Film photograph by Michelle Kilfeather

The Art of Arms l’Arte Dell Armi At the Art of Arms we have one solitary vision, to bring the historical martial arts we study as HEMA or WMA practitioners to life by telling the stories of those who lived it. The hours of research, writing, transcription and translation are worth it when we get to see Altoni’s Spiedo section in action at the Baglioni Palazzo, Fiore’s armor techniques displayed on the battlefields of San Giovanni in Persiceto, Liectenauer’s rossfechten techniques thundering across the terrain of southern Germany, the Anonimo’s sword and gauntlet brought to bear in the lists of Mantua; these are the moments where history and martial arts meet, and we’re dedicated to bringing these moments to you our dear listeners.
