🎤 What do a trivia show, a fake country, and a war against Crocs have in common?

From founding the micro-nation of Slowjamistan (where Crocs are banned by law 😆) to designing and hosting a national trivia game show unlike any other, Mark shares the wild ride of combining entertainment with meaningful engagement. He dives into stories of tech failures turned learning moments, how games build community and retention in corporate settings, and why persistence is the real superpower behind success. It’s an episode packed with laughs, lessons, and a whole lot of game show magic! 🎮🎙️
