Here is the recorded panel I did at PAX 2023 with the one and only Mick Gordon. All video footage is provided courtesy of @PAXAustraliaOfficial

FUN FACT: After the panel finished, 200+ people converged on Mick to ask him questions and get him to sign things. As a result he remained at the venue for 3 hours and he missed our dinner reservations
