This episode was recorded LIVE at The Roguelike Tavern in Burbank. Joining us were Matt Bamberg-Johnson and Chris Porter of LA’s The Speakeasy Society who came to share word about Winter Fest OC, coming up later this month in Costa Mesa and featuring all new immersive work from the beloved LA theatre collective. Then we pull John McCormick, owner of The Roguelike Tavern, away from the bar to tell The Roguelike's origin story of the bar and spotlight the immersive & interactive attractions available on site. Finally Scarlett Kim, producer of the upcoming Worlds in Play gathering at Arizona State University in Mesa this January, previews this upcoming event which will gather play practitioners from around the country and brings word of the Worlds for Change Challenge which is offering scholarships to ASU's XRts graduate degree program.
