- We sit down Benchmark’s legendary gaming investors Mitch Lasky and Blake Robbins (now also of the excellent Gamecraft podcast fame) to discuss the history and future of gaming business models. This episode is the perfect bookend to our Nintendo/Sega gaming series this season on Acquired - no one is more qualified than Mitch and Blake to breakdown how the business side of the industry has evolved so radically from the Periscope quarter-drop days to the forever games and platform based publishers of today.
Regardless if you’re a gamer, understanding the incredible innovation that’s taken place over the past two decades in gaming and what it portends for other industries is critical for any founder and investor to understand. Tune in!

Insane value! Thank you so much, from a studio founder in scale up mode 🙏🏼🚀
This is so good, thanks for getting this convo with the triple OG Mitch Lasky
Thanks for putting the perfect cherry on top of Gamecraft. Gentlemen, well done.
Damn it’s Quad’s dad
Great episode. 🤗 Guys, did you delete the LVMH episode from RUclips? I wanted to share it with a friend and couldn't find it on your channel here. I remember that the episode used to be on RUclips. Sharing an episode via a podcast app on mobile phone isn't viable from my experience-RUclips is the only option to share and be sure that a person who gets the link could listen to it and doesn't get a dead link due to having a different podcast app setup... or having a podcast app at all. For my podcast, RUclips is the primary sharing option that 100% works for a recipient.
Thanks! On LVMH... it was never on RUclips! This year, we moved to only posting the IRL interviews with guests on RUclips. All of the "Ben and David" episodes (LVMH, NFL, Nintendo, etc.) are in podcast apps.
We don't edit video for the Ben and David episodes (slows down release, not very visually interesting), and we got some feedback that it was hurting the channel to post the audio-only with a big logo. So RUclips channel is just... RUclips-worthy stuff now!
@AcquiredFM Maybe I mistook the podcast cover of the episode for RUclips cover. Anyway, great job!
@@AcquiredFMas a single additional datapoint, if you had another channel with audio only, or played with the google podcast option, I’d listen on here. I’ve opted for RUclips premium and this is my default app for podcasts at this point.
@@TonyUbertaccio Seconded from your point, a dedicated channel for audio releases would be lovely
Why isn't all your stuff like ACQ2 uploaded on RUclips? I hate the search function on podcast players.
