Just a note before we get too far into the show. As you may or may not know, AIE lost one of our greats on August 16th. Our dear friend, guildmate, fellow member of FERT, creator of Overly Dramatic news, and podcast co-host, James “Acuzod” Jefferies lost his battle with cancer. He was loved by so many and made all of us who knew him just a little better. He is survived by his amazing wife Jodi, their kids, Jennifer, Kimberly, and Sami, and grandson Nathan. Zod will be remembered for his humor and his kindness, and his voice will live in this podcast, as it is his voice you hear on all of the bumpers! Oh, and if you see Acuzod online, it is his grandson, Nathan, playing on his Papa’s account. Ok, we’ll be digging into this week's news shortly, but first, let’s talk to our esteemed guest, Dr Gamelolgy, himself! GAME NEWS Mkallah- We had you back on the show in episode 389 and you talked about your psych research as it relates to gaming and the gaming persona podcast. Now, it's all come together in your new book, The Gamer’s Journey- tell us about the journey and how you got there. Mewkow- Did you find gaming an escape while working on the book, or did it evolve into being in research mode? Tetsemi- What was your biggest surprise while working on The Gamer’s Journey? Mkallah (if needed)- And, the big one, where can everyone find your book?
