I always liked Matt Chat

... and this episode was quite a coup, getting the INVENTOR OF THE VIDEO GAME to appear on it.

As for the true 'father' of the video game (ie: Baer vs Bushnell), it's probably safe to say that Nolan made the industry grow by introducing the arcade machine to the public in order for there to be a mass market for home consoles that would follow (Fairchild, Atari 2600, Odyssey 2, Intellivision, etc).
