GLHF’s Game & Fortune Podcast: Episode 2 with Roger Clark is now live /

GLHF’s Game & Fortune podcast has been honored to receive Roger Clark, the voice behind iconic characters like Red Dead Redemption 2’s Arthur Morgan, as its first guest, inviting the renowned actor to an hour of goofy fun and video game trivia. As you’d expect from someone with the charisma of a Wild West protagonist, the show quickly included a whole bunch of Roger Clark trivia as well – including childhood sports activities and fascinating student summer jobs.

Roger joined our host Dave, our reviled judge and boss Kirk, as well as Ryan, Georgina, and myself on this episode. As usual, we competed in a series of fun and challenging mini-games, striving to win the most prized award of all – exposure.

Speaking of exposure, did you know about that one guy from the Roman town of Pompeii who was found in a particularly embarrassing position after Mount VESUVIUS (you’ll get why I capitalized this one as you're listening) buried the place in the first century CE? I’ll let Roger tell the rest of the story – really, if this isn’t proof that Game & Fortune is also an educational program, then I don’t know what could be.

You can learn about more than game trivia here, though I won't promise it'll have any actual use aside from being hilarious.

This episode’s theme, of course, was video games set in the Wild West in tribute to Roger’s role in Red Dead Redemption 2, so get your cowboy hat on and saddle up as we let the whip crack.
