Heidi McDonald joins Drew this week to talk about various topics including a public confession of not knowing how to ride a bicycle, asset comparisons between herself and her avatar in Dragon Age, the great "Squee!" incident of 2013, and learning how to be bold from her boss riding into a wall on a penny farthing bicycle.

Heidi has several books to her name including Digital Love: Romance and Sexuality in Games. She also worked as the "translator" for iThrive Games and designer at School Games in her hometown of Pittsburg, PA.
