Jerry Wolosenko Interview
In the earliest days of computer games, someone had to get games from fledgling publishers to the mom-and-pop computer stores dotted across the country. Our guest, Jerry Wolosenko, was one such man and from picking product at events like the West Coast Computer Faire, to representing Psygnosis in the USA, to getting involved with a little start-up called Harmonix, Jerry has met every big name in the business, seen every ebb and flow the industry has to offer and regales us with some truly amazing stories.
Sit back and relax as we go deep into the history of gaming with Jerry Wolosenko.
