This second episode is a personal recollection of my travels to Austria and Austria Pinball Open from 2016-2019 together with my mate Tom, and how life changed during those visits with Sandras passing. It is a celebration of friendship and the great experiences one gets when travelling to tournaments in other countries. We also have the pleasure of speaking to the organizers of the Austrian Pinball Open, and also of course tasting some exquisite austrian beers.

Drain Talk episode 6: XMAS Matchplay 2021 Recap!

In this 6th episode but first Audio-Only episode of DrainTalk I talk about the XMAS Matchplay Open tournament weekend I organized with my buddy Tom last weekend, 3-5 december, in Oslo, Norway. After having to postpone the 2020 event due to covid, we managed to organize it this year and I talk about the progress from planning to completion, our visions and thoughts behind the the tournament, the formats and the choices we made. I go through the days of the tournament and reviewing the 4 tournaments we held during this weekend, with some hindsight and results.
Thanks for your support and hope you like this audio-only format in between the video episodes!
