That was fun to watch, I can’t imagine how nerve racking it is for Mike as each event takes place and each set drops. I know on my other channel I watch the analytics like a hawk and am constantly adjusting. I am beyond hyped for the online code cards in War. The gilded poker Kickstarter cards will be so nice to see in person. It’s always cool to see the creator talking directly to the community, the first interviews I ever seen were with Rudy and those interviews convinced me this is a brand worth getting behind. I grew up researching Cryptids so it’s awesome to see someone that knows more than I do, actually doing something fun to expose so many more Cryptids than anyone knew existed.
Thanks for sharing your backstory Menace ❤ I can only imagine how it felt for you when you first discovered Metazoo seeing your interest in cryptids being brought to life in a TCG! I can relate to the Rudy videos - those interviews really made me believe in Mike and his vision for the zoo
There are actually people that have started to receive the KS gilded decks made by Metazoo now, some pictures floating around in the Discord/socials 🔥
Great interview - looking forward to what Metazoo will bring globally
For sure! Metazoo is currently just doing what they need to do and growing their IP slowly. When the next bear market/boom occurs Metazoo will be ready 💪
Awesome interview!!!! Can't wait for all the things in store for this year and beyond 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
Thanks Zuul ❤ man, this year itself is going to be 🔥 I can't even imagine what Metazoo has in store for us and the world for Yokai Island 🏝
I love how many interviews mike is doing!!!!
100% It really shows he does care about the Metazoo community! I learn something new every interview about both Mike and the zoo
@@Peeweez0 Where can I find more interviews with Mike?
@@treasurehunt7812 Best way to find Mike's other interviews is to just search for "interview with Mike Waddell Metazoo" in TH-cam! You can see by the video dates which ones are the more recent Mike interviews or the ones that are from 2021 😀
@@Peeweez0 Thank you. I made the mistake of searching only Metazoo and sorting by upload date.. after searching for Mike Waddell I found them. Thank you :)
Congrats Peeweez with the interview! Great job, loved the approach and very laxed.
Thanks Harley! I'm glad it appeared I was laxed because it was like the "This is Fine" meme inside my head LOL
Enjoyed the interview!! Thank you both for making this happen. 😊🔥
Hope you've been well Jody! Thanks for dropping by ❤ Definitely looking forward to all the big things in the pipeline for Metazoo this year. It's already Q2 of 2023 - I can taste the Metazoo IP already!
Great job on the interview!
Thank you!! I appreciate you taking the time to watch it ❤
Not gonna lie though, it was a tad intimidating interviewing Mike - he's very direct and straight to the point (which is not exactly my strong suit 😆 lol)
This is an awesome interview Weez0! Thank you for getting this together and getting this out to us. So much info to look forward to!
Thanks Fiz! Yeah seems like everything is in the works but just under wraps 🤫
Great interview! So looking forward to all the upcoming set blocks!
I can see the story unfold already in my mind! Hope they have multiple seasons of the anime so that we can experience all the story blocks/arcs

Canadians represent 🇨🇦 Hope next convention stop, the great white North!
Good interview P-W! Props to Mike for doing all these interviews,. It's funny cuz you can tell Mike isn't trying to give away crucial info till its time, some stuff he just doesn't know yet, and other questions he has answered so many times, he doesn't wanna sound like a robot so he's coming up with ways to say the same thing differently or with different descriptive words. All part of the tcg of life! The MZ train rolls onward!!!🚄🚋🚋🚋
Thanks Star! I must've missed some interviews then - I thought I did my research listening to all of Mike's interviews I could find and my questions weren't repeats 😆Definitely a lot of questions were too spoiler heavy to be answered by Mike at this time - he's definitely a trooper doing all these interviews 💪
Solid interview....the more I hear mike the more I like him.
Thank you! Honestly I thought it was a solid interview as well - I could've prepared more questions to extend the discussions. Mike is a super smart guy - he's definitely a man with a plan for Metazoo 🧐
Great interview!
Thanks Ray ❤ Mike was fun to talk to but too bad he had to be hush hush about ongoing projects 🙊
@Peeweez0 the fun of it being hush hush is that we get to discover it when it comes :]
great interview..🔥 excited for the future projects/collabs from MetaZoo..🥳
🃏
Thanks 🃏! Apparently not enough hours in the day to work on the future projects/collabs - there's always going to be something to look forward to 👀
how about disneys lorcana arent they going to nuke metazoo ?
Hey eventhorizon! I think that Lorcana will do very well but ultimately will be after a different audience than Metazoo. Lorcana and Pokemon will duke it out for the young kids while Metazoo is more focused more on a teen/adult audience! There's definitely enough market share for everyone 🙌
lorcana is where the money flows and honestly bifg guys rather invest in disney than in mz
A bit of a cringe interview
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the feedback 🙏
