S3 Ep 13 - I Play Games
This week we sat down with the joystick general himself — Kevin Fair, founder of I Play Games! — a Chi-town visionary who turned childhood couch gaming sessions into a nationwide movement. Since 2009, Kevin’s built more than just tournaments; he’s cultivated community, sparked travel, supported media platforms, and kept the controller in the hands of the people.
We talk origin stories, the business of gaming, cultural ownership in digital spaces, and how Chicago breeds the next wave of gaming legends. Whether you’re a casual player or on your e-sports grind, this convo is a masterclass in what it means to build from play.
Level up your ears. Tap in. Press Start.
FNG is for the culture — digital, analog, and everything in between.
