On this week's episode of Stupid Little Games, Jess welcomes former Bethesda and CCP games exec Jon Lander! They chat about the importance of networking (especially these days), crowd-surfing at Fanfest, and the quest to get the game industry to grow up, just a teeny little bit...
Then during the Stupid Little Game they answer the question, "Would you rather be kidnapped by Bowser or Donkey kong?"
Which would *you* choose?
You can catch more from Jon on LinkedIn or his new venture Square Corners Consulting.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
