Pandemic's manager Chris Lemley recently joined JockYitch on a live episode of the BashAndSlash podcast. Though Pandemic have provided regular appearances on the BNS cast for years, it was Jock's recent exclusive with Infinity Ward - revealing to the world the removal of dedicated server support from MW2 - that put the show on the map in a big way.

Chris and Jock decided to go away from the traditional pre-recorded format of BNS and do a live, impromptu show to gauge community response. The turnout was pleasing, and with only ~2 hours notice, more than 500 listeners tuned in to listen and interact.

The show was posted earlier today for on demand streaming (you can listen to it via the embedded player below). The following is the accompanying excerpt from BashAndSlash.com:

Today we depart from our usual format to present a BASH special edition. On BASH to talk to us about himself and his esports organization is the president of Team Pandemic: Chris Lemley.

We have had many current and former Team Pandemic superstars on this program, people such as Nabore, Rob-wiz, and Prank`, but we have never had the brain behind the winning teams. We set that wrong, right on this cast.

Chris and I talk on a range of subjects in this interview. We cover some of the history of Pandemic, the rise and fall of CoD competitive gaming, MW2 and we even find time to talk a little bit about the new Korean micro-transaction shooter AVA.

We end our discussion talking about the new direction he wants to take his organization.

Chris is a good pragmatic businessman, a really entertaining speaker and a great advocate of esports and I cannot wait to have him back on this program.
