The Zack Sass Podcast: Recent Episodes
Zack Sass
The Zack Sass Podcast is a podcast focusing on the business side of esports. My goal is to shed some light on the less talked about, behind the scenes work, that goes on day to day in esports and business in general! These podcasts will mostly be comprised of one on one interviews with individuals within the esports space and what their stories are. Hopefully, this will allow some people to grasp a greater understanding of the esports community as a whole! -Zack Sass
