Extra Life, a fundraiser that uses video game marathons to help kids in Children's Miracle Network hospitals across the land, takes place this weekend. Friend of the show Bill Nielsen is participating, and to help spread the word he's come back to Blank Cassette with a high school CD of (potentially unidentifiable) video game remixes. This week, we cover how video gaming has shaped Bill's life, from school socializing to how it's affected his appreciation of other popular culture (like music) to his current podcasting and digital fundraising. Bust out your Gamecubes, everybody. 

No Spotify playlist this week, but if you search hard enough, you can find some of these on YouTube!
