2:08:17 AliceTheAlchemist Q: Hey Rich, without giving too much away, if at all, I'm curious how both you and Thorin were able to develop and hone your journalistic crafts? Is there things from what you guys read or learnt throughout your lives that fostered that growth and brilliance? I'm asking because I aspire to be a novelist and although it isn't the same as journalism I am always in admiration of both the work that you two gentleman produce in terms of it's sophistication and depth, thanks.

2:14:43 Jyse Q: What is your opinion for "after hours gaming leagues" as a concept to grow the esports base within a country? This kinda league already exists in Finland and has seen a massive interest, especially in cs with 171 teams partaking in the fifth season. Teams range from taxidrivers and social workers to IT-companies. Could this kinda thing help drive more money to esports if utilized properly?

2:19:00 ReykjavikOnSteam Q: Which Infowars supplements would alter your mind to be the same as Anders?

2:21:32 Buttpounder420 Q: How many gallons of walrus cum do I have to chug in order to get Pansy to start casting CS games again?

2:27:10 Jdubs Q: You've referenced a lot of coronavirus-related financial issues among top orgs - how soon do you expect the first major player or team sale, and how many top orgs do you expect will have to sell pieces when all is said and done?

2:31:10 SunmaidRaisins Q: with the introduction of agent skins etc, should valve also add the option of uploading your own face and stretching it onto an agent? unreasonable comment ahead With Ronaldinho you could jiggle peek angles with his teeth
