Brent Naseath
At the height of the arcade boom, two young entrepreneurs wanted to take arcade gaming higher, creating a unique, immersive cooperative experience combining computer game tech with the latest laser disc audio visuals. Simutron promised gamers an immersive experience, in the Star Trek universe no less, at dedicated game centers. Sadly it would not come to pass. Brent Naseath, cofounder of the venture tells us what happened back then with Simutron, how his career in tech evolved and his new quest to harness the power of technology to save democracy itself.

Our guest today, Bruce Nesmith, worked for both of these company's in their hay day, first as a programmer for TSR on their ill-fated venture into software publishing in the early 80s and then as a writer for both TSR and Bethesda.
