Instead of discussing a specific character, I had the opportunity to speak with actor, musician, writer, and filmmaker Danny Shorago—who also happens to be the voice behind Hancock, the first character we discussed.
We had a great conversation about the complex dynamics between performers and fans, the essential role storytelling plays in our lives, creating the conditions for magic, and so much more. The conversation was so good that we talked for longer than expected, so I’ve split it between two episodes so you can be sure...2021-01-1851 minThe Pixel People: NPCs & UsRobert J. MacCready | Fallout 3 & 4 | TransformationWhen we first encounter R.J. MacCready in Fallout 3, he's a foul-mouthed teenaged mayor of an underground town of children. Ten years later, in Fallout 4, he's a distraught young father, seeking a cure for his own child and grieving the loss of his wife.
In this episode, Twitch streamer and content creator Kelly Danielle and I take a close look at MacCready, a character whose story spans two games, the effects of stress and trauma on a person's life and long-term decisions, and the hard choices that parenting sometimes requires.

What does it look like when a werewolf has an existential crisis?
Skyrim introduced many people to the complexities of the Elder Scrolls universe and a vast range of intriguing characters.

Sinica PodcastRana Mitter on studying the Nanjing MassacreThis week marks the 80th anniversary of the Nanjing Massacre, also known as the Rape of Nanking, which began with the fall of the capital of the Republic of China on December 13, 1937. Few events in modern Chinese history have a historical valence comparable with the Nanjing Massacre. The wholesale slaughter of Chinese soldiers and civilians, the notorious “killing contests,” and, of course, the horrific sexual violence visited on Chinese women during the six weeks that followed Nanjing’s fall inhabit an understandably large part of China’s historical memory. The details of the event, however, and the way that those details a...2017-12-141h 03
