Real Talk Featuring Pat Moore, Billy Anderson, Chad Otterstrom, Mons Roisland & More

This week we are taking a break from discussing video. We may have reached maximum saturation and are experiencing the ‘law of diminishing returns’ in that while the videos that were released this week were no doubt impressive - checking the boxes - after a blitzkrieg of edits - my brain is feeling a little overloaded.
