Welcome back to the final segment of my much delayed interview with Ignacy Trzewiczek. The interview went right on time; the delay is that it took me nearly 2 years to write it up and present it in website format. And yes, I am still copy and pasting Ignacy’s last name. The food has come …
Welcome back to my dinner with Ignacy. The food has arrived, and I have been endlessly entertained by tales of an early gaming industry in Poland. Our waiter, however, seems a bit more concerned that Ignacy is barely eating. Little does he know, Ignacy sustains himself with storytelling, potatoes, and onions.
Welcome back to a wonderful steak dinner with designer and publisher Ignacy Trzewiczek. Well, I had steak. He had a potato. This interview happened back in July 2022 at Dice Tower East, but the stories Ignacy tells about the early days of gaming in Poland are just timeless. I find it fascinating to look back …
Welcome back! I have just arrived at the Tide and Vine Oyster House in Ontario, after a bit of a prolonged trip across Canadian Customs. You see, I am at dinner with designer and Canadian native Daryl Andrews – a short diversion during the Gathering of Friends Convention in Niagara Falls, New York. DTD: Oh, …
As all good things must eventually come to an end, my GAMA lunch with Eric Lang is coming to its scheduled close. Eric told me at the start that he had an appointment, and we are cutting that time limit pretty close. Eric had just been talking about forming strong bonds with early members at …

Welcome back to lunch with designer Eric M. Lang. We are dining at Oceano in the Peppermill Resort during GAMA Expo 2022. The conversation has been pretty heavy lately, with discussions of racism, representation, and now to lighten things up, we are talking about violence in games. But don’t worry, we will dive into Eric’s …
It’s still hard to believe I managed to corral the eternally busy Eric Lang into a calm sit down meal at Oceano in the Peppermill Resort Hotel in Reno, Nevada. The conversation has been all over, ranginging through social philosophy, discrimination, and yes, even game design. But right at this moment, all sounds ceases for …
Welcome back to my lunch with Eric Lang during GAMA 2022 in Reno, Nevada. Eric has always been an outspoken voice in the board game industry, quick to point out injustice or insensitivity. I decided early on that I would leave our conversation intact, and allow it to just flow organically. And we do touch …
When I very first started Sice Tower Dish, I made a short list of designers I would really like to go have a meal with. And since the beginning, Eric Lang was on that list. Eric Lang is responsible for so many modern classics, I don’t even know where to start. Dice Masters, Blood Rage, …
