039. Playing the Past -- Aris Politopoulos

On this episode I'm joined by Aris Politopoulos, an archeologist who works on video games, to discuss the way that video games can help us understand the past, help us educate people about the past, and possibly make the entire project of understanding history more anarchist.

Aris does much of his work on video games as part of the VALUE Foundation; you can find them on Twitter, Twitch, YouTube, or at their website. And to see the Roman Minecraft project, checkout https://romeincraft.n
