Following in the footsteps of his interview with Matt Barton, Randolph Carter of Grinding to Valhalla has interviewed me for a Reading the text feature, linked here. We talk about Vintage Games, Wii Fitness for Dummies and the videogame documentary, as well as some of my gaming habits and thoughts. I'm sure you've heard a lot of this stuff from me before, but I'd still love to hear any and all comments related to this. Enjoy!"
Ha, that last question is hilarious.

The correct answer to any esoteric question is "Forty-two."

Depends on whether long hair or bodybuilding is a better geek diffuser. :)

Great interview. More than just an interview about your personal projects and history, quite a bit of your personal philosophy comes through too. It was illuminating reading.

Could just be a coincidence, but I've noticed a nice rise in sales for VG and D&D in the wake of these interviews. Both have moved from the 100K range into the 50K range. Hard to know what that means in terms of units, but a positive sign nonetheless.
Bit of a wacky idea, but I've been thinking of trying to get us on the NPR station here. There are two very nice talk radio programs that usually focus on books or interviews with "experts" with lots of call-ins. I think they'd be up for a videogame one, maybe something on the importance of gaming or how games are being taken more seriously (played by adults, etc.) If we could get VG into the book club circuit, we really would move some copies.
Great idea, Matt, and they may very well be up for it with a more intellectual slant appropriate to NPR.

I'll look into it, then, maybe shoot a draft of a contact email past you.
Considering the frequency of dry, obscure subject matter that NPR features, I would say that they'll put just about anything on the air if it has an intellectual slant to it. That means I think your chances of getting on NPR are very good, especially if you are credentialed authors with two books between yourselves on the subject of video games.
