    Hi Matt,

    Love your show… seems like you have the same interest as me – metal, RPG’s and ale 🙂
    Do you maybe have newsletter? I subscribed on Youtube and Twitter, but get overloaded by all my other subscriptions.

    Cheers
    André

    Hey Matt,

    I just watched your interview with Graeme Divine from 2012 and loved it. I’m going to be interviewing him next week and I was wondering if there’s anything you wished you had asked him or anything that you’d ask him now?

    I appreciate you taking the time and I hope you’re staying safe,
    David
