Happy Tuesday Everyone! Last week's episode with Battlestar Galactica creator Ron Moore was such a doozy, we had to call in re-enforcements to discuss it. And who better than my Battlestar Bestie Tricia Helfer? You know Tricia from her role as Number Six. She also played Charlotte Richards/Goddess on Lucifer and voiced Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft II, among many other roles. I love any excuse to get together with Tricia and it was such a blast to do a deep dive into Ron's interview (Sorry, Ron— we're not over it!). We talk about how Ron built a collaborative set on Battlestar, getting booed at our first Comic-Con, the moment Tricia switched from dying her real hair to wearing a wig as Number Six, and so much more! Plus, Tricia and I brainstorm projects for our reunion— Cagney and Lacey, anyone?
MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kelsey Lewin, Kyle Hilliard, and Jeff Marchiafava talk about our picks for Game of the Year as it currently stands and try to predict if anything can top games like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Balatro, and more. Then we dive into the speed-running world of Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. After that. Haley MacLean and a very relaxed Leo Vader join the show to talk about three great, new indie games called Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure, Été, and Dungeons of Hinterberg. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!

In episode one of our Strengthening the Forensic Workforce season, Just Science sat down with Dr. José Almirall, a Distinguished University Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and Director of the National Science Foundation-funded Center for Advanced Research in Forensic Science at Florida International University, and Dr. Sarah Kerrigan, Professor and Chair of the Forensic Science Department at Sam Houston State University and Director of the Institute for Forensic Research, Training and Innovation, to discuss the inception of the Forensic Science Education Programs Accreditation Commission (FEPAC) and chemistry programs in forensic science. Built on the foundation of the Technical Working Group on Education and Training in Forensic Science, or TWGED, FEPAC became an official standing committee of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences and awarded its first accreditation in February 2004. Since then, over 50 undergraduate and master's level forensic science programs have been accredited in the United States. Listen along as Dr. Almirall and Dr. Kerrigan discuss their roles as founding members and early adopters of FEPAC, training the next generation of forensic chemists, and the importance of expanding the number of forensic science Ph.D. programs. This episode is funded by the National Institute of Justice's Forensic Technology Center of Excellence.
Abu and Kevin explore how Sarah Kerrigan was never truly given the choice to decide her own destiny. They discuss her tragic childhood and initiation into the Ghost program (3:28), her motivations as the Queen of Blades (18:15), and her final and most important choice for the Zerg (30:45). This is an [Expert] level episode, which means some parts of the discussion may not make sense unless you’ve played the game. Expect lots of spoilers.
Michael continues to construct additional pylons as the StarCraft story continues! First we covered the Zerg, and this week, Michael covers the powerful ghost, Sarah Kerrigan, and her tragic story, leading to the creation of one of the most harrowing villains in video game lore!

This week on Player Attack, we're overwhelmed by amazing characters! Whether you know her best as the voice of Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft II, the face of Kilian Qatar in Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, or perhaps as cylon Number Six in Battlestar Galactica, Tricia Helfer should be familiar to anyone with an interest in sci-fi, cyborgs, or bad-ass bitches. She's played some incredible women over the past decade and a bit, and is now starring in Lucifer (as the exiled wife of God, no less). Tricia was in town recently for Oz Comic-Con, and was more than happy to chat with Jonny Robot in this two-part interview about her impressive career (did you know she's part cyborg?). For something completely different, if you miss the glory days of the character platformer, Angelo has some good news for you. Yooka-Laylee is out now from new studio Playtonic Games (featuring former key personnel from classic developer Rare), and it looks like it can fill the gap. Described as a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie, this one might not bring much new to the table, but hey - if it ain't broke, don't fix it! ...plus, of course, we have all the latest in gaming news - this is Player Attack! http://www.playerattack.com
