#95: May in Mental Health Awareness month so on this episode we’ve decided to address the very confusing world of mental health professions in the United States and how their portrayals in media are a challenge for everyone. We hope this episode helps spread awareness about the similarities between the different professions and how even mental health professionals themselves don’t have all the answers.

Ep. 92: What do FaceApp, chatbots, and sex dolls have in common? New face technology! While FaceApp is a fun distraction, it may demonstrate that we have the technology to easily read and manipulate realistic looking faces, real or digital.
Notes:

- Meet Nadia, the scarily ‘human’ chatbot who can read your emotions – http://bit.ly/2p39xH6

Ep. 23: Kelli and Josué discuss how games can be a part of a much bigger story told through different media. Think of how Star Wars and Halo stories are told through books and movies in addition to games. Do stories in other formats make your play experience better and vice versa?
