Backer Questions

Did he ever get to play that Unknown Armies game he thirsted for in his previous visits to the show?

And if  not, why? Why is it so hard to get a game we’re passionate about off the ground?

How does he approach long term character development in an audio environment during an age where video and visual queues have become the norm? Or, what makes the audio creative space enjoyable for him?
