This episode has been a long time coming. Ken Shelton (@k_shelton) is the guest on this episode, and we get into issues related to equity, equality, esports and education in the Age of COVID-19. Ken is leading the discussion around educational issues, raising the concerns many educators are facing every day with their students, as we shift into eLearning. And we do bring the conversation back to how the Age of COVID-19 can impact scholastic esports.
