TCW Podcast Episode 107 - Storytime with a Book
We read from chapter 18 of "They Create Worlds: The People and Companies that Shaped the Video Game Industry Vol. 1," which discusses the impact of Breakout on Japan. There are some tangents, other story times, and we bring a lot of things discussed over the years into a more complete perspective. We also learn about the mysteries of magnets.
