À propos du podcast
Hosted by Brian Rast & Phil Laak, Late Reg is built on a longtime friendship and a shared history in poker.
Poker is our point of connection, not our boundary. We sit down with people we find interesting for open-ended conversations about poker, business, competition, life, and whatever else comes up.
No filters.
Just quality conversations, engrossing stories, and different perspectives.
