SHMOKEN JOE

"The future belongs to the bold"

"I started this show because nobody was asking the questions I wanted to hear answered."

— SHMOKEN JOE

Before interviewing anyone else, Shmoken Joe turned the camera on himself. The premiere episode of Season 01 is a raw, unfiltered origin story — from the first stream with 14 viewers to the decision to build an interview show around gaming culture. Joe talks about the military shooters that shaped his gaming identity, the flight sims that taught him patience, and the space sims that expanded his imagination. This is the episode that started it all, and it remains one of the most-watched in the entire archive.
