We've had some laughs, we've had some cries, we've had some ups, we've had some downs... we’ve also had some guests! Here at Region Nerd Alert I finally accumulated enough to warrant a "Best Of" episode from our previous guests and took out some snippets of interest. 

Action, Adventure, Thriller, Drama, Horror, and comedy are all examples of movie genres but also video games! There's a video game for all types of movie genres no matter how niche.

The Industry, as some like to call it, isn’t everything its cracked up to be, especially for women. Whether it's Hollywood, video games, streaming, automotive, anywhere that requires a system in which a person moves up, there are always people at the top preventing women from reaching beyond that ceiling. The next Region Nerd Alert we have a more serious discussion that needs to be had, especially in the world of nerds and its fandom.
