Episode 7: Will the coronavirus cancel esports? Ft. Emily Rand

Episode 7: Will the coronavirus cancel esports? Ft. Emily Rand

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has been the talk of the town since the start of 2020 but this week we've seen the cancellation of notable leagues and events in esports. Overwatch League & Call of Duty League has suspended events, Flashpoint will take place without a live studio audience, ESL Pro League will kick off season 11 online, Leauge of Legends continues to work around the issues and the list goes on and on. Major sporting events around the country have suspended play for the foreseeable future as well. It's clear this is a problem worth talking about and this week I'm joined by ESPN's Emily Rand who inadvertently became a resource for ESPN on the coronavirus due to her covering the LPL in China at the genesis of all this. I chatted with her about her journey and how the world of esports is in a unique position to work around this global pandemic. All this and more in That Esports Podcast!

Episode 6: All about Valorant: Riot Games' new game! Ft. Slasher

Today we're discussing all things Valorant, Riot Games' new first person shooter (formerly known as Project A). It's poised to shake up the gaming industry and the world of epsorts so I reached out to notable esports pundit Slasher to get his take on Valorant. We discussed it's viability in esports, the style of game it's shaping up to be, whether the first showing of the game was the best way to do it and if it would overtake games like Overwatch and PUBG in Asia. Finally, how in the world do you pronounce VALORANT! All this and more in today's SPECIAL That Esports Podcast!

Episode 4: A Plea to Nintendo & Dallas Empire's "Struggle" Ft. Jacob Wolf

Follow/Rate/Review THAT ESPORTS PODCAST on Apple Podcast, Spotify, Google Podcast, etc! 


Nintendo has inadvertently landed on one of the biggest esports in the world and they do very little to nothing to support it. Why is that and what else has Nintendo missed out on? This week Goldenboy talks to ESPN Esports' Jacob Wolf, who is one of the leaders in esports journalism, about his role in this industry and how he feels reporting is perceived by the community and his peers. What happened in Montreal at the Six Invitational (Rainbow 6) and in Philidelphia for the Fusion Homestand (Overwatch)? Also, what's going on with the Dallas Empire (Call of Duty) and why are people burying this squad only 2 events into the CDL season? All this and more in THAT ESPORTS PODCAST!

SPECIAL: Meet Soe the new host of the Overwatch League

Today I get to chat with my good friend Soe who is stepping into the role as the new host of the Overwatch League. She's a veteran esports talent and has worn many hats in the OWL but now she takes on the challenge of hosting, which she's more than prepared for. We discuss her thoughts regarding taking on the role, share funny stories of our world travels together, and give her thoughts on the teams to look out for this season. Enjoy!

Episode 3: CDL and LCS Launch & Apex Legends NA Qualifiers Concludes! Ft. Snipedown

Episode 3: CDL and LCS Launch & Apex Legends NA Qualifiers Concludes! Ft. Snipedown

This week we talk to Halo and Apex Legends Pro Player Snipedown to get his reaction on qualifying for the ALGS Major in Arlington, TX and discuss his future in games like Call of Duty. Speaking of, the Call of Duty League is underway and we had some notable moments but nothing more notable than YouTube getting the exclusive broadcast rights for the CDL what does Goldenboy think of this recent development? The LCS's next action-packed season has begun and some big names are showing early signs of struggle. Huge upsets took place that rattled the world of Super Smash Bros. and what's next for the Brawler genre? All this and much more in another wild week for esports across the globe!

Episode 2: Is Overwatch League in trouble? Ft. Flame

Episode 2: Is Overwatch League in trouble? Ft. Flame

Esports is an ever-growing beast and this week leaves us with much to discuss. I had a chance to sit down with the General Manager of the Houston Outlaws, Flame, to get his thoughts on how his team will do in 2020 and whether the community backlash has affected him and his squad's mentality. There has also been a lot of heated discussion about the long term viability of the Overwatch League as it goes into its third season and some are wondering if the writing was on the wall but I believe not all hope is lost... Meanwhile, we had big events for Super Smash Bros. and FIFA. Call of Duty will be seeing updates ahead of the CDL Launch Weekend and some organizations in CSGO made some changes to shake things up (or in some cases keep things "the same"). Esports never lets you down!

Finally, Attach from the New York Subliners joins the show to discuss coming to New York, getting quality time with the team, and what he thinks of the "god squads" of the Call of Duty League.
