EP: 50 Story telling in Video Games with Ted Atchley
Monday, 16 March, 2026
Join me and Ted Atchley as we dive into one of my favorite topics: video games as storytelling devices.My first gaming system was an Atari. After that came the NES, then the Super Nintendo, and from there the long march of consoles and PCs that many of us grew up with. Back in those early days, games weren’t really about storytelling. They were about chasing high scores, beating the next level, or figuring out the pattern that finally let you defeat the boss that had been destroying you for the last hour.We chat about the games that made us think, made us care about the characters, and sometimes even hit a little harder emotionally than we expected.We’ll be swapping memories, comparing favorites, and probably going down a few nostalgic rabbit holes along the way. Because if you’ve been gaming long enough, there are always a few titles that left a permanent mark—games that proved storytelling in games can be just as powerful as anything in books or film.So if you’re into games, storytelling, or just enjoy listening to a couple of geeky dads talk about the things they love, come hang out with us
