On this episode of Geek4, I’m joined by Lauren Ashley. Lauren is an actor and social media presence, and a huge fan of lots of things! Lauren is an absolute delight. We discuss her love of Lucille Ball – from discovering I Love Lucy as a kid (on Nick at Nite) and her movies on AMC and Blockbuster to attending Lucille Ball conventions and collecting Lucy swag.
We also talk about Lauren’s own acting, which is how I first discovered her of Hollywood Graveyard in Arthur Dark’s two short films, The Tomb of Nosferatu and Graves from the Black Lagoon. They’re fantastic and I highly recommend watching them.

Episode 302: Vamping and Masquerading with Alice Bell!
Welcome to Geek4 where we delve into the world of geek culture and fandoms, and everything in between. I'm your host, Dr. Michael Boyce
My guest on this episode is author Alice Bell. From her humble beginnings in South West England, spending weekends in fields sipping Smirnoff Ice, to her days navigating the intricate world of retail, Alice's path to becoming a prominent figure in video game journalism is nothing short of remarkable.
Since 2016, Alice has been captivating audiences with her insightful commentary and passionate writing as a video games journalist. Her tenure as the deputy editor of Rock Paper Shotgun, the renowned PC gaming website, has solidified her reputation as a leading voice in the industry. With a knack for crafting compelling reviews and dissecting the allure of everything from hot vampires to digital elves, Alice has left an indelible mark on the gaming landscape.
Her first novel, Grave Expectations, is a cracking cozy British mystery, and one I highly recommend. Her follow up novel, Displeasure Island, was just released in the UK and should be released in North America soon.
Now calling Cork, Ireland, home, Alice's days are filled with literary adventures, crochet creations, and of course, plenty of video game escapades. Whether she's unraveling the mysteries in detective fiction or indulging in the quintessential British pastime of Midsomer Murders marathons, Alice's passion for storytelling knows no bounds.
So without further ado, let's dive into this conversation with Alice Bell, where we'll explore her love of the 2004 roleplaying video game, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodline.
