BTS Bonus Replay - Ep 27: Taking Down the Tetris King Part 2

Our first BTS Bonus episode is a replay of one of my favorite conversations on the show - a talk with Paul Tesi, also known as MegaRetroMan online. In 2019, Paul entered the Classic Tetris World Championship as a relative newbie and took down the greatest Tetris player who ever lived. A story of triumph that's tempered by the harsh realities of winning big in a niche competition, this episode does what I think this podcast was designed to do. Bring interesting personal stories to people ready to hear them. Thanks for your support as I pull those 80 hours weeks and stay safe!
