Episode notes

Kirk has really been enjoying the medieval role-playing game Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, but Maddy and Jason both weren’t playing, so he didn’t have anyone to talk to about it. Hoever, some of his non-podcaster friends were playing the game, too. One thing led to another, and they wound up recording this special episode about it.

ABOUT THE GUESTS:

TOM BISSELL is an author and screenwriter. He has published loads of books including Extra Lives, Magic Hours, and Apostle: Travels Among the Tombs of the Twelve. He’s also written for video game series like Uncharted and Gears of War and wrote the final three episodes of Star Wars: Andor.

MATTHEW SEIJI BURNS  is a writer, musician, and game designer. He worked on AAA series like Haloand Call of Duty before moving to Zachtronics, where he helped make games like Opus Magnum and Eliza, the latter of which he also directed. He is the author of the 2025 novel Process.

Together, Tom and Matthew wrote the 2015 interactive fiction game The Writer Will Do Something, which remains (in this episode notes writer’s opinion) one of the definitive encapsulations of working as a writer in video games. Seriously, go play it.

LIAM MCINTYRE is an actor who has appeared in a variety of programs – among other roles, he was the lead in Starz’s Sparticus: Vengeance, and played Weather Wizard in the CW’s The Flash.
