Rated NA 129

Scott

Hi, Iā€™m one of the founders of Nerd Appropriate and the Rated NA podcast. I like good and bad sci-fi films and tv, pho, and the retrofuture. I am primarily an Xbox gamer, but also do some PC and Wii U gaming as well. By day, I am a research scientist, mostly in topics related to human-computer interaction and user experience. Before all this, fellow NA co-founder Matt and I played music together in various bands. I also used to make "comedy" videos for my high school morning news program before there was a place to post them online. Favorite Star Wars character? Admiral Ackbar. Best Bond era? Timothy Dalton (Craig a close second). Game of all time? Maybe System Shock 2. Thanks for being a part of this labor of nerdy love with us.

Ashley Eckstein: The Nerd Appropriate Interview

Star Wars: The Clone Wars has quickly become one of my favorite things on television. That feeling of raw “magic” that Star Wars made you feel as a little kid is still alive and well every Friday night on Cartoon Network. In honor of the season 3 finale we have the amazing Ashley Eckstein here on our site. The voice of Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tanno, Ashley has transformed Ahsoka into the heart and soul of The Clone Wars. And while we may already know the fates of Anakin, Obi Wan, and Yoda, Ahsoka’s future remains a total mystery.

    We all want to call you Dr. Scott now.

    Thank you so much, Sean, for being so open and honest in sharing your struggle and story, wow! It’s inspiring hearing about using humour with illness, and most of all, going after what you want through difficulty. What a great interview, and dialogue! I completely agree that people would be surprised at what anyone can survive through, and still be successful (and happy?).

    Thanks for the recommendations of indie games šŸ™‚ always looking for more! Ahhh I never seem to be able to write down all the game names you guys list.
