This week we're joined by the wonderful Sean Baptiste,  whose long career in the games industry led him to become the senior PR and streaming manager for Bethesda Softworks. Today, he works with influencers large and small on the publisher's biggest franchises like "Doom" and "Fallout."

We talk with Sean about his extremely diverse career path (which includes play writing, standup comedy, and finding bugs in "Guitar Hero,"), what he's been playing lately, and that time he played "Rock Band" for Dave Grohl at the Grammys.

Also, what makes a great "Persona" game, the extraordinary work that goes into Twitch streaming, and how great game design turns complex systems into an effortless groove. Plus, your emails!

Colette's playing:

Persona 5 Strikers: Classic Persona style and story with very intense action combat

Sean's playing:

Wrestling Empire, a deep and weird wrestling career sim that throws back to the N64 era

Matt's playing:

Not Valheim (because it still runs poorly) but a return to No Man's Sky after many huge updates
