A Pepsi consultant to a televised game jam (sponsored by Pepsi) asks one dev team “Do you think you’re at an advantage because you have a pretty girl on your team?” and asks the all-male team “Do you think the teams with women on them are at a disadvantage?”. Which resulted in all of the developers to stop participating in the jam.
Good for them

Gee, Leshem's production company is called "Protagonist." Guess he figures he should be the star of the show.
Standard reality TV tactic though, try to stir up controversy and create fake tension/friction.
