Episode 97: Brock Wilson

Art (x.com/artparmann) and Justin (x.com/justinyoung07) sit down with Brock — a sharp mind who left a successful start in finance to chase something far riskier: his love for poker.

From spreadsheets to chip stacks, Brock’s story is one of obsession, resilience, and finding meaning in the game that never stops calling you back. Ride the swings as we talk bankrolls, burnout, and the beautiful chaos of going all in on what you love most.
