That interview was like a good book you can't put down. Knowing parts here and there of that story, it's like listening to one of those radio programs where the host would give you details never known before and end with "and now you know the rest of the story".
After meeting Jeremy and Elaine at PAX West in Seattle last weekend and asking him many of the same questions, this was a wonderful video that gave me more insight into a person I found to be pretty awesome. I hope we can grow the game in the Seattle area and the West in general, so we get to see more of them.
Jeremy, I got my Tracey 'grey rock' board in the UK. I think it's a beautiful board and I love it that there's a stamp on the back saying it was made by Tracey boards in 2023. Please do a video tour of your workshop to see where and how my beautiful Tracey board was made👍
It has been a long time since we have done one but maybe its time. we move shop in April so perhaps once we get settled into the new place we can do a tour.
Jeremy, thanks for being so open and honest during this conversation. It was a lot of fun to listen to. All the best to you and your family. I'm so happy for all of you.
This was a very insightful backstory of the Tracey brand, love to see how far it has come and where it will go. I couldn't help but notice when Jeremy spun the board, is there a lazy susan under it?
Glad you enjoyed it. Devon is pretty easy to talk to. Re: the lazy susan under the board. check out the series of videos coming out on Play the Game HQ. Just with the set up of the space it was most functional for play to be able to spin the board so we popped a turn table underneath. In each of those videos we made sure to mention that it isn't normal but I just didn't think of it when we did this interview.
Fantastic story. Just ordered a board and some accessories from my FLGS, The Adventurers Guild in Mechanicsburg, PA. Can’t wait for it to get delivered!
Watched the whole interview. Having had the opportunity to meet Jeremy in person somehow, this video made me appreciate him and Tracey boards even more.
I love that Devon got to interview you for this story. His video with Quackalope (Crokinole ASMR) was what made me want a board and less than a year later I purchased my first board from you. It is such a fun game! My brother and I spent over 6 hours playing the day we opened our expected Christmas gift on Christmas and another 5 hours the next day! We purchased our own home the following year, and hanging the board up was the first "art piece" in our house. Love it so much! 5-Hole Crokinole board will definitely be purchased in the future, just sayin!
Thank you for sharing your story. Great to watch 2 of my favourite humans and listen to every second (no matter how much Devon thinks no one is listening to the back half).
I will be sure to let Devon know he was wrong... that at least 2 people listened all the way through... ps. I am the other one I know watched the whole thing LOL. See you soon
