  • Summary

  • American Jank is a show about American video games and pop culture in general.
    As a foreigner raised in a very Americanized world I put in my expertise in the exotic ways of the puzzling "American" and investigate their culture through its video games.
    Sure America could never have its Nintendo, its Ubisoft, but they can try!
