The RPG Room: Confirmation Bias and the death of geekdom - a podcast by Interviews and RPG Publishing advice by Paco García Jaén

In this episode, Jim Pinto proposes that Geekdom as we know is about to die a
painful and very unavoidable death thanks to the blight that is cognitive
and confirmation bias in our lives.

In a nutshell, we are seeing more and more crappy shows and movies that
people consider to be super great when, if you look at them under a critical and
objective light, they are not all that great, like the Big Bang Theory, which is
crap. Very crap. And yet some people love it and god forbid anyone speaks ill of
that show.

So there.

Also I pay tribute to one of my Art heroes who recently and suddenly passed
away, the rather fantastic Wayne England. He illustrated more than 100 Magic:
The Gathering cards and, pretty responsible for the look and feel of the
Warhammer 40K universe from the moment go and illustrated dozens of Dungeons & Dragons books.

This is a controversial episode, so hope you like it!
