Digital Cowboys: Episode 116

Gamers Wives

We talked to six women about how gaming affects their relationship, and what games they play alone and together. The results were surprisingly varied and interesting. We're very proud of this show and would like to thank the ladies who made this possible.

1. Tony's wife; Lizz Atkins AKA Lyra Silver
2. Our long-time Xbox Live friend Natalie Edwards AKA Ace Star
3. Commander Tim's main squeeze Carolyn Sonnek AKA Blogkitten
4. One of my work colleagues: Karen Webb AKA Show_Girl
5. Regular website contributor Steven Jones' other half Linda Thomsen AKA Penguingirl
6. And my wife, Sharon Shaw AKA Cai Boxer

Along with these we have the show regulars; news on the Xbox summer dashboard update, more delays for what would have been Christmas games, our views on 1 VS. 100, reader mail and the random game of the week.

The music at the end credits is by Marian Call, a professional singer-songwriter from Alaska and new friend of the show. The song is "I'll still be a geek after nobody thinks it's chic" and is available on iTunes from her Firefly/BSG-inspired album Got To Fly. You can find her website here. We'll be featuring more of her music in the future. Cheers Marian!
