Erin Bell from Gamezebo – THD#07

Today on the big show, Erin Bell from Gamezebo stops by to chat with TC about the casual games world.   Who are the best developers, what would she change about the industry, the lack of personality in many casual games, and why casual gamers are getting so passionate and protective of the developers they love.

Joe Siegler from 3D Realms (Part 1 of 2) – THD#B06

Today on the big show, Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadoh (aka Joe Siegler of 3D Realms.com) stops by to NOT talk about the 800lb Gorilla named Duke Nukem. But it turns out they talk about Duke Nukem Forever. Also Joe tells the story on how he came to work at 3D Realms, and much more.

Update 1:  Unfortunately, this evening it was confirmed to Tech HotDish with TC that 3D Realms have been closed.   Our best wishes are with the employees and families of the company.

Update 2:  Joe has given his blessing on running part 2 of the interview, so we’ll see about potential posting that next week.
