Laura Intravia does a lot of musical things. She composes, performs, teaches, tours with Video Games Live-- you know, the usual. She also guests on podcasts, apparently, because here she is for a fun-filled episode of Train Station at 8! We talk about Banjo-Kazooie, Shadow of the Colossus, Super Mario World, The Legend of Zelda... all the good stuff. So don't be a square; be a square wave and tune in! (I promise that isn't our new catchphrase.)

Where can you find Laura on the internet? Try her website and/or Facebook, and don't forget to read her blog. You'll learn stuff, you will!
