Operation Sports - Press Row Podcast: Episode 15

[Steve_OS]

It’s Episode 15 of the Press Row Podcast, the first in a series of one-on-one long-form interviews with people in the sports gaming world. Over the course of this year, we’ll speak in-depth with movers and shakers, from executives to developers to media folks, all with the goal of gaining a better perspective on the games we love.

This week, it’s Brad Hilderbrand, a Communications Specialist from EA Sports. We talk to Brad about how he made the transition from industry outsider to studio insider, his perspective on the state of games PR these days, what his goals are, and how his relationship works with people in the Tiburon studio as well as the media types he supports. It’s a fascinating hour dedicated to peering inside an oft-misunderstood – and demonized – aspect of the games business. And don’t panic! We’ll be back with another full panel episode next week. In the meantime, enjoy!
