  • Heartfelt thoughts from a fellow geek and artist.

    As a lifelong artist and geek, hearing Scott talk about what affects his life, family, art and game-playing geek-time rings so true for me. He's authentic and genuine, and shares true feelings that I've sometimes experienced too. I also like that he sometimes records while he's sitting outside, walking his dog, or just reacting to life. Love the meditative music choices he uses as intro-outro, too. Keep it real and keep doing this!
