Jono also shares insights on his role at MAVRIX, what he actually does, why he left banking to work with Matt, how realistic physics shape the gameplay, and why gaming skills are starting to translate into real world riding. There are also stories from A Slice Of British Pie, North vs South, early career mistakes, kite surfing in South Africa, and Matt Jones joins the episode for some classic stories and brotherly banter!
