Hey there! For the past couple weeks I’ve been working with the fine folks at [Kornhaber Brown](http://www.kornhaberbrown.com/?ref=killscreen.com) and [PBS Digital studios](http://pbsdigitalstudios.tumblr.com/?ref=killscreen.com) on a brand new channel. KB are the same folks who do the wonderful [Idea Channel](http://www.youtube.com/user/pbsideachannel?ref=killscreen.com) and they were looking to turn the spirit of manic intellectualism into something new about games. So they picked me!

Each week, I’ll explore a new subject from the world of games and culture, hopefully provoke you a little bit, and expand your mind on what games are and what they could be. [Our first episode asks why Mario, Sonic, and Link have endured for so long](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQMm4Wi2GwU&ref=killscreen.com). We take a look at marketing theory, some historical posturing, and ultimately turn to the work of Joseph Campbell and his “monomyth” for the answer.
