We were lucky enough to catch up with Doug Zartman who was a PR Director for Bungie from 1994-2000. Doug is a well known for his voice of Bob in the og Marathon trilogy and the infamous line "They're Everywhere!" Doug tells us in the interview about some of the employees he worked with, what it was like working with Bungie back in the day, and a little bit about each of the games Bungie worked on before they became acquired by Microsoft.

Doug also advertises the Fourth Curtain Podcast where hosts Alex Seropian (ex-Bungie Co-founder) and Aaron Marroquin (currently Principal Artist at Look North World). This podcast features interviews with some of the top video game designers about what it takes to be a video game designer and how to improve at the craft. Check out these interviews that include Marty O'Donnell, Christopher Barrett, and many many more!
