Hi all,
The Go community has been wonderful with connecting the Show with the right people, groups, etc to provide interesting interviews and other material as different ideas have arisen.
Below is a current list of potential interviews and interests for future episodes. If you known those who might be a good fit for any of these conversation or someone who might know someone that could make the connection or get me in touch with them, that would be incredibly helpful. Also please do not hesitate to add your own ideas of people to interview and topics.
You can use either this post or my email (AllThingsGoGame@gmail.com) to pass anything on. Thank you in advance and for listening to the show!
