If you told me I was going to be interviewing such an iconic and legendary video game character after only 218 episodes, I'd say you were joking. But here we are folks. We finally got to sit down with one of the ladies from the Atari 2600 game, Beat 'Em & Eat 'Em. She tells us all about her life, how she got the job, and if she enjoyed it.
