    Wow. Seeing this triggers so many great memories especially those days and nights spent playing in that fabulous game room at Mishra’s. Im sure I wasnt alone in spending plenty of time daydreaming about my living room walls being painted in a similiar fashion by Mr. Rush. I came to the video because my son and I just played 2HG against Brian at PAX. Full circle moment. Thanks for the time.

    Great interview. I thought you did a nice job of going back to important questions to get further explanations. I also think Alex was honest in his rationale. I imagine having that much knowledge of the game made it easier to spot opportunities that didn't require much premeditated thought. That is my understanding as to why he didn't remember when it started... not a justification. He didn't come across like he had no remorse or like he was hiding anything. Thanks for an insight into Magic. I've never seen it played, but I've known about it for around 20 years.

    Because of Marshall, I went down the watch restoration rabbit hole. Love it. His passion for horology elicits the same response in others and keeps a wonderful and worthy art form relevant and thriving. Thank you

    :) Great video, I've been waiting for this! Since you mentioned you are now focusing on the diversity of the game, I wanted to share my experience. I am from Latin America and primarily play in Panama. I then founded Spikes Academy (MTG online academy) while living in Thailand, and then I moved to Madrid and continued diving into Magic. Now in New York (where I met Roland), I see how different Magic is in all those countries. I would always be super interested in an interview if you ever want this point of view. :)

    As a guy about to retire from working for 45 years. Marshall has made me want to take up watch repair as a hobby. I know it will take time to understand all that is needed to completely repair a watch but I have lots of free time to slowly enjoy this new hobby.

    This was such a good conversation. The conversation about "bar reps" is EXACTLY where I am at, I want to do creative things but I have no videos or an idea to start and I've been looking at it like I need to kill the dragon right away. It's all about just putting in the work at your comfortable level and not trying to sell out that arena from the start.

    Man hearing Sam express some anxiety about being cornered by someone during an interview and specifically mentioning the gaming space like... That's the space I came out of and 100% that is how things can be because Twitch Politics and Video Gaming are so closely linked.
