Happy Monday everyone! The NerdyBits Show is on a bit of a hiatus as Ryan is in the process of moving AND having a baby (don't worry, we confronted him about this). So, to give you all something to listen to, Caleb sat down and recorded a solo episode last week.

It's been a long 10 years since Caleb started this website and started writing about videogames seriously. There have been victories and failures, lulls and peaks, but nevertheless, he persists. Back in college, when proposing a senior thesis, Caleb was batted down by a few professors who couldn't manage to see a way that videogames could be important. More than that, the thesis was specifically about the Assassin's Creed franchise and its potential to be a tool for learning about time periods far in the past. Since then the AC games have made their way into the academic sphere, going so far as to catch the eye of Harvard Egyptologist Peter Der Manuelian.

So, in the spirit of never letting haters get under your skin, Caleb recorded his thoughts now, as a long-time journalist, podcaster, and now Professor of Game Design at Webster University. Is it worth it to say things like, "I told you so?" Maybe...
