Hello friends old and new!
Jess is back this week with Andre Coleman - a 10+ year Senior QA Engineer who has worked with EA, Experis, Microsoft, and Avalanche Studios! They discuss turning off "QA brain" when you're playing games for fun, what QA *actually* entails (spoiler alert: it's not just playing games all day), and Andre makes us all hungry talking about New Orleans cuisine.
Then they play a Stupid Little Game called Smarty Gras, all about Mardi Gras trivia. "Throw me something, Mister!"
Note: There are some construction sounds that we couldn't 100% remove from the background (NYC will be NYC after all) so just pretend that there's a Tom & Jerry cartoon happening in the background. Special thanks to engineer/wizard Gabe for working so hard to make this episode sound nice.
Special thanks to today's sponsors:
Phantoms, Ghosts, & Other Heartbreaks - a debut novel by Beth Morton. You can find it on Amazon paperback and kindle. Available now!
Outreach Program - the sophomore album by Brooklyn indie rock band Social Robot. Visit socialrobotmusic.com for more info!

Stupid Little Games is a podcast all about gaming from the inside out!
Each week, I (Jess Pardue) sit down with an insider from various parts of the gaming industry, from indie to AAA. We talk about our current gaming obsessions, tell stories from projects past and present, and then play a Stupid Little Game I write especially for each guest.
Thanks so much for listening!
