Hello and welcome to the Game Theory podcast. I'm your same to Sini today. Tyler Britton from over at Hoop Venue joins me. I am a huge fan of what Tyler's doing over there. Since I've gotten deep into the YouTube scene, I've been like kind of finding people that I like, finding people that I really enjoy workwise. And Tyler is definitely one of those people where I'm just like, man, this dude's awesome. I love the way that he thinks about basketball. I love the way that he talks about
