  • Davis has created an incredible community and content experience

    Davis Mattek is a true gem. This man has brought smiles to my face in some of the darkest days of my life. His way with words is unlike anyone in the fantasy space. There’s no one who can provide such detailed and thoughtful analysis while at the same time being able to provide incredibly thoughtful commentary on industry sentiment. It’s hard to put into words his artistic brilliance. Thank you Davis for giving us the gift of you. You rock brother

    Was once a Monday morning go to pod. But now imagine yourself in a quiet decent restaurant then a baby starts screaming and doesn’t stop until you finish your meal, that’s what it sounds like listening to Davis on this pod nowadays.
