With the impending debut of season eight of the hit HBO show, Game of Thrones, we encourage everyone to sign up to HBO Now, rather than pirating. Host, Mike Etchart, recently discovered some interesting facts about online malware in relation to some of our favorite shows that may surprise you. Then, Freelance Writer and Editor for The Wirecutter and CNET, Geoffrey Morrison, discusses the upcoming season of Game of Thrones, HBO's decline, and an article that details all the missteps that lead up to the failure of BioWare's Anthem. Next up, Popular Technology Radio Producer, Cody Castleberry, joins the fray as we discuss some of our favorite games (including Sea of Thieves, God of War, and Metal Gear), the business of video games and microtransactions, E3, and why giving passionate creatives the reigns on video game, movie, or other media development is usually the best idea. Tune in as we discuss the clash of business and art.
