Freedomain Radio

I've been a gamer my whole life, so I'm subscribing to your podcast

Iiiiiiinteresting, I have a whole series of notes about the philosophy and psychology of video games! Sub'd.

I'll check it out....good luck with it

Interesting - I'll check it out!

I just heard a guy on Free Talk Live recently talk about how he came to the ideas of liberty through gaming - the basic idea that when you have a fixed set of rules that govern the game, experienced gamers will ALWAYS find and exploit the loopholes to maximum effect.  

Thanks alot for demonstrating interest guys. This will do wonders for my mid-to-long term resolve.

If you have any feedback don't be shy. I'll let you know once Episode 3 is up.

I subscribed and listened to both episodes. Good job man! Though I generally enjoy podcasts more if there are two or more people going back and forth, you managed to make it interesting on your own. The content so far was great, and it was not too short and not too long, considering the topics that were presented. I like the scholarly approach, it's certainly a refreshing contrast to the other gaming podcasts I listen to.

I'm working on my own liberty-themed game, so I'm really looking forward to hearing your ideas on the subject.

How about a guest appearance on the show?

With my thick east-european accent? Your ears would fall off. Besides, I don't think I could contribute anything really interesting.

Thanks Michael. Do you remember roughly what day that guy called in on? I'll be listening to recent episodes to look but if you can narrow the search grid down I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I really appreciate it! As far as guest appearances go, I don't even have the infrastructure necessary for that to happen yet. I'd love to exchange ideas someday tho. With fingolfin too.

I find it funny tho, when you google "gaming and liberty" this thread is ranked higher than my site. *lol*

Episode 3 is up! It's short but it's up!

Cheers.

I just listened to the first four episodes and I thought they were great! Suddenly I'm interested in gaming again. Busted out Morrowind and Oblivion last night. :) Keep up the good work.

What a great idea! As an aspiring video game developer who wishes to spread philosophy through the medium, there couldn't be a better podcast for me.

Thanks guys I truly appreciate the feedback. I released episode 5 last night and your comments were uplifting during the process. Thanks again.

Suddenly I'm interested in gaming again.

This is the most touching thing you could have said and I just wanted to point that out. I feel gratified knowing I'm having some kind of impact on people's lives. Can't wait to see what this will look like a year from now.

Bump!  It's excellent stuff, this.  Big fan.
