Hey hey hey everybody my name is Doug and I love movies this is Doug loves movies it's

Sunday January 15th 2023 and my guests today are two of the best and the rest it's I'll let you

all guess which two are the best. Tray Gallyon Sam Levine and Dan Peroll, hello fellas. Hey Doug. Let's

meet y'all individually and alphabetically by first name co-creator I hope I'm saying that

right of American Vandal and players. Back after his first appearance last summer in San Diego

like it all that right. All good all good so far. It's Dan Peroll hey Dan. Hey Doug. It's gonna

be back. Players is on DVD. It's on DVD as well as Blu-ray like the better DVD and and still on

Paramount Plus so viewable in three different formats. I love it but the DVD Blu-ray was a recent

development. Yes. Because someone from your team or Paramount Plus or somewhere reached out to me

and was like hey we would like to see if you're interested in having Dan Peroll on your show to

talk about players being available in another format and I was like yeah I'll call him.

I'll go ask him he's been on before so happy to have you back and is in addition to plugging

players. We should talk a little bit more about players. Sam Levine if you see in this show

you know I haven't. Oh Sam it's right up your alley. It's about professional teams of gamers.

And I know what a gamer you are. I thought about you the whole time I was watching the premiere

episode of The Last of Us. I was like Sam would love to see such a gamer but seriously.

The show is really like you really get in that world like did you yourself Dan have to be

much of a gamer to create this thing. You know I was sort of a casual gamer I'm mostly a

console gamer and then Tony my co-creator and I we love sports we love documentaries and

following American Vandal our first mockumentary we knew we wanted to do a sports mockumentary

and so at that point it became a question of well what sport would be something that initially

you don't feel like you're going to care about but hopefully by the end you're unironically
