Episode notes
Hosts' Opening Framing
- Cameron and Michael introduce the episode and name The Grasshopper as their reading choice.
- They set a casual tone and mention the book's 1978 classic status in game studies.

- Cameron recounts chaotic personal events (stray cats, a diabetic cat) that affected his mood while reading.
- He links his frustration with the book to being hit by 'material history' in life.

- That binary aligns neatly with digital/game-design perspectives but flattens cultural nuance.
