There's no "I" in Esports! That's a factual statement. This episode is crammed full of factual statements as Holden takes us on a tour from the very beginning of Esports in 1962 all the way up til now where there are full leagues of people (some legends, some not) playing for millions (both audience and dollars)! We go through it all from Billy Mitchell in his prime to EV0 moment 37 to The Overwatch League. Be dazzled by Holden's research, Jake's insightful commentary, and Mike's complete lack of knowledge about video game acronyms. But hey, he did compete in the 1994 Blockbuster Video Game Championships and vividly remembers being humbled, so there's that.
