In this episode, I talk with John Romero who has a farm in central Louisiana. John has a desire to see more people have access to better quality food. So much, that he donates a large portion of his farm products to local food pantries and rehab facilities. We have a great conversation about how important it is to teach others about cleaner foods.

In this special re-release, two of gaming's most influential figures — John Romero (DOOM, Quake) and Cliff Bleszinski (Gears of War, Unreal) — join me to talk about their memoirs, the creative highs and lows of shaping iconic franchises, and the cultural debates that have followed them for decades.We dig into questions of legacy, the future of interactive storytelling, and yes — the long-running discussion around whether video games cause violence. It's a candid, thoughtful conversation with two designers who helped define what video games could be.If you love game history, behind-the-scenes stories, or just hearing legends reflect on their craft, this one's for you.

TCW Podcast Episode 238 - Quake   We dive into the development of Quake, the ambitious and turbulent follow-up to Doom from ID Software. John Carmack set out to build a groundbreaking engine featuring full 3D rendering, dynamic lighting, and client-server multiplayer. This pushed the technical boundaries in a pre-GPU world. To achieve this, he brought in legendary programmer Michael Abrash from Microsoft, selling him on the vision of Quake as a step toward the metaverse as imagined in Snow Crash. Meanwhile, John Romero envisioned Quake as a fantasy RPG inspired by a character from his D&D campaign, but lack of direction and his growing obsession with Deathmatch led to team frustration and eventual fallout. The result was a game that redefined first-person shooters and laid the groundwork for decades of engine development. It also marked the end of an era at ID with the ouster of John Romero.   TCW 030 - DOOM!: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/doom-1479057917/ TCW 197 - The ID of Game Development: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/the-id-of-game-development/ Doom States and DeHackEd: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTa3diypjv4 P2P vs Dedicated Servers?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt3ZLHKcP2U Token Ring - The Betamax of Networking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjLctlmZSp4 Artie - The Strongest Man In the World: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6Bh3LskNbs Space Strike (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtDdEuKFQps Cosmic Crusader (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKOTa5iQAw8 Big Top (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXUCacgF72M Snack Attack II (DOS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu-SEjcnnjo So You Haven't Read "Snow Crash": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO64ZhBYy9E Ramblings in Realtime by Michael Abrash: https://www.bluesnews.com/abrash/ QuakeWorld Launch Event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXw6BkZ-gdY Quake (DOS 6.22): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyLC1vR9oGk Quake Longplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7GagGXXUtI Excerpt Quake Postmortem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2OE-74bTQw   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

Serious question, why call something Rebirth, if there is no rebirthing, where was the rebirthing? Yes I have a full review of Jurassic World Rebirth in todays drop. Plus more fallout from the Microsoft and Xbox layoffs, and who is to blame? Helldivers 2 is dropping on Xbox next month, and Nintendo ponders the future of game development. ScarJo is now the highest grossing lead actor ever, John M Chu is going to be racing into theaters as the director of Hot Wheels. Meanwhile James Gunn and Zack Snyder portal into Rick and Morty in the least suspecting way.

We return with 50% less salt, but still pretty upset with Microsoft. But besides that fun business, Ryan has completed his journey through Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and picked up a few Steam Summer Sale games with Mini Motorways and UFO 50.

In this insightful episode of The Ride Boundless Podcast, I sit down with my good friend and business collaborator, John Romero, a seasoned financial advisor with extensive knowledge in insurance and personal injury. Together, we delve into the often-overlooked realm of financial education, discussing why topics like investing, wealth management, and securing our financial future are seldom taught in schools. Our conversation challenges the conventional narrative of working hard, paying taxes, and repeating the cycle. We explore the concept of "checking in from the neck down," a reference from [Book Title], and discuss the "blue ocean opportunity" that lies within each of us. By examining the habits and strategies of the wealthy, we uncover the information gap that keeps many from achieving financial independence. Join us as we break down complex financial concepts into actionable insights, aiming to empower you to take control of your financial destiny.
