Your humble co-hosts apologize for their voices in this episode. We're not sure what happened, but we sound like chipmunks whose voices skip. But don't let that stop you from listening. We finally got a philosopher of games, C. Thi Nguyen, on this show about philosophy, theology, and nerd culture. He does most of the talking, and his audio sounds great! We talk video games, board games, the very concept of play, and even a little food writing. It is an accessible wide-ranging conversation.
C. Thi Nguyen teaches at Utah Valley University
He also has a personal website that contains resources on the philosophy of games
