Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! I’m not a huge gamer, but even I know what a big deal Ashly Burch is in the video game world. She has voiced so many beloved and iconic characters, including Aloy in Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West, Chloe Price in Life is Strange and Tiny Tina in Borderlands 2 and 3. She’s also had a fascinating career as an actor, writer and director starting when she created Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin’? with her brother Anthony and progressing to writing and/or directing on Side Quest, Mythic Quest and Adventuretime, among others. She is crazy talented and also so smart when it comes to her work and the future of the industry. We talk about AI, mental health and what it was like to grow up in Arizona the daughter of an immigrant and fall in love with video games. I had such a good time talking to Ashly and I hope you enjoy our conversation! Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where Jeph and I talk about the parallels between the Sci-Fi and video game fan culture and answer some of your questions from the Mailsack!
