As a young professional in the game/event presentation business these interviews have been a wealth of ideas and inspiration on how to better myself and the show. Really appreciate the insight given and look forward to the new episodes
Such a great podcast by Don Costante that stands out!
What I really like about this podcast is that it goes in-depth and talks about interesting things about every aspect of the business with every guest! Thank you Don!!
I accidentally fell into the world of game Ops in 2005 ... as a producer and sports junkie, I was shocked how little I knew about how this world works. 15 years later ... still no clue! But this podcast is crazy informative, interesting and fun.
As someone who is still fairly new in game presentation and looking to better understand the career path, this is fantastic insight. Thank you, Don and I can’t wait to hear the next show!
