I think you’ll really like Yochai’s response immediately after that question (no spoilers). I think that opening question was meant in jest, and it quickly becomes a longer conversation about why all of these designers gravitated toward their particular style of play.

It was a good panel. GaryCon this year was very fun.
Really interesting and charming panel! For the first time I have seen Brad and Yochai, and I imagined them totaly different in my head when I was listening to the podcast 
Interestingly the panel covered so much more ground then just the OSR or RPGs in general. This could also have been a really great panel on subcultures, communities and similiar. Combined with the effects the internet has on them! I have never been to garycon or similiar and I experience the osr basically solely through the internet, so it made me really curious about the atmosphere on conventions!
Matts commentary on the state of the internet and social media, google plus and blogs, really made me think deeply about how “free” the internet is, and if its really connecting people anymore. Or if its just a big shopping mall.

I found it a couple(?) years ago but lost it, then thought it was gone because I couldn’t find it on Google. I found it again!
