Great host. He lets the guest speak loads, but also has questions that are smart from a business perspective

[@Soxxoffi]

I think the questions suck. He's speaking to the CPO, not the CEO. He should preface the questions to better fit Todds ability to answer them.

[@roykama3489]

Great interview!

[@ValueHunt1]

Love it guys! You should do more of this :)

[@user-ds4vu8qb8m]

Evolution or Crazy time gaming is not a genuine game...this game is totally own control

[@astrochildsr3658]

Todd, stop using player analytics to decide appropriate outcomes for your games. Also make the Compliance and regulatory testing reports accessible the public, they confirm you are fair right? You wont cause people will see the strict regulatory checks third party checks are not strict at all giving you a free pass.
