Philosophers In Space - 0G95: Stargate Atlantis and Gamification

Picture in your head the "I'm not saying it was aliens..." guy, but that's the whole series. Boom, you're now caught up on Stargate and can fully enjoy this episode of lighthearted banter between archetypal humans as they toy with the lives of other humans in ways they can't begin to understand. We're watching season 3 episode 15 of Stargate: Atlantis. The episode is called "the game" so we thought it would be super original to tie that to gamification. That's about as deep as the Stargate writing pool goes.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Crypto Fundraising and a Nothing-Is-Safe Haven
