Seltzer is one of the OGs of modern e-sports, starting her rise to fame back in the heyday of SC2 by providing interviews and fulfilling the role of desk and stage host for multiple events. Years later, she's one of the most sought-after hosts for the gaming world. This episode was a ton of fun, filled with embarrassing stories of our past, nostalgia of the golden days of StarCraft 2, and genuine love of gaming and sharing it with the people around us.
