Hi Guys,

you may know my written interviews with
Nony and
Zombiegrub
as well as my audio interview with Tasteless.

This time I got the chance to interview Artur "Nerchio" Bloch, our all time favourite polish zerg!

[image loading]

(Copyright of the picture as far as I know with Redbull)


I split the interview in three parts. In total its about 80 minutes long.

In the first part I messed up the video a bit, but the audio is fine. Its all very raw, I m not good in editing stuff

Please Enjoy and support Nerchio!

Nice points regarding the cynicism on the net, and how does it influence the community.
