In this episode of Beyond the Bureau, SadieMae and Quinn sit down with Carter Hoover and Michael Khairallah—two of the founding members of James A. Garfield High School’s brand-new E-sports program. From Super Smash Bros.showdowns and team-building through buddy texts, to breaking gamer stereotypes and dreaming of state championships, the duo shares how this digital extracurricular is leveling up fast.
They talk about the games they love, the ones they’d like to add, and what it's like going from casual players to competitive athletes—jerseys and all. Plus, you'll hear about their most intense matches, future goals, and why being funny is essential to friendship.
Whether you're a gamer, a skeptic, or just E-sports curious, this is one power-up of a conversation.
