Pickup And Play Episode 3: Jay from Square Pegs

Jay and I talk about his time at EA, what makes a truly great sports game, our favorite games to relax to, and some of the goofiest gaming stories from our childhoods!

Jay is a good dude.

Hell yeah man! It was great hanging out with you! If you make it to Portland, we're def throwing down on some NHL for the Sega 😂

The only thing that broke my WoW addiction was not being able to afford a new computer when mine would no longer play the game due to the new system requirements in 2018. I still miss my girls! Deannatroi (Night Elf Druid), Tashayar (Human Warrior), Seven of Nine (Draenei Death Knight), Louwannakaye (Gnome Mage), Miquela (Dwarf Priest), Kachina (Tauren Druid), and my main Charlizz (Blood Elf Priest). I split my time off work between WoW and NFL (in season).

A fellow Trekkie! Co-hosting the ST meets at my local Comic Con is one of my favorite things every year! ♥️🖖

@@DJSwitchPDX I was just talking to a friend of mine the other day about going to Megacon in 2013 and attending the STNG panel. Oh my! They were ALL there! The funny thing is how some were so different from what I imagined. Marina Sirtis was sooooo rude! Lavar Burton acted like he wanted to be ANYWHERE else. Patrick Stewart was sweet but seemed so frail. Jonathan Frakes, Brent Spiner, and Michael Dorn were pretty much what I expected. My favorites turned out to be Gates McFadden and Wil Wheaton (say it like Stewie says it lol). They were awesome!

@@pamala2112 Amazing! I get to cohost the fan meetups and guest on a "State of the Federation" panel every year because a friend of mine runs a quarterly fan-zine, but I haven't been able to meet the cast yet. My friend does the cruise every year, though, so if I'm lucky and this podcast does well, I can expand and do some fun stuff like that too!
