Ep253. Industry Builder & The Cheese State Champion
Manage episode 460813879 series 2563053
Cyberstalking! Inappropriate office decor! Puking! The Virgin Mary! Somehow, by the grace of God (or in spite of it) the ladies are bringing ALL of this and more this week. First, Kelley honors her gamer side by highlighting Carol Kantor, one of the early thought leaders in the video game industry! Back when Pong was all the rage and game developers didn't really care of their games were any good, market researcher Carol Kantor bet Atari VP that she could predict which games would/n't sell within 6 months. Her player-focused research techniques would become industry standard for all major developers today! Then, Emily travels across the Mississippi to that dark shadowy place, Wisconsin, to tell the story of Belgian immigrant Adele Brise. While walking through the woods, Adele encountered a mysterious woman in white who would change her life, her small Wisconsin town, and (perhaps) save hundreds of lives. Chug those electrolytes and don't give strangers rides, because we're wining about herstory!
