It's CEO 2022 week! I wanted to break down everything going into CEO this year and give attendees something to listen to on their travels which is back at the Daytona Beach Ocean Center!
Jebailey takes you through the venue map, all our content and what it takes to put on this entire event.

Catching up with all of you on the last few months getting ready to CEO 2022 in Daytona Beach, FL on June 24-26. My upcoming travel/event schedule as events return all at once, checking out the F1 Race in Miami thanks to Red Bull and my new Origin PC setup.

I'm back after a personal break and event planning for 2022. This past weekend I got to experience a Music and Camping Festival, Okeechobeefest with friends and family. Gran Turismo 7 is amazing, AEW Revolution was awesome. 

Finally Brought Tong Lee from twitch.tv/tampaneversleeps on to talk about all things first time meeting, FGC events and helping me run CEO Gaming Events. We go over his love of Marvel, hardest parts of putting together CEO and our friends together.

Catching up on everything #CEO2021 prep as we're about two weeks away from the return of one of the biggest #FGC events.
Talk about gaming lately, how things are going after the crash in October, and being lucky to get an Electric Car with the timing and car shortages out there.

This wasn't an easy episode to record as I'm still dealing with the aftermath, but wanted to keep talking about everything that happened for my own mental health. Thank you again to everyone that reached out over the weekend after this all went down: https://twitter.com/Jebailey/status/1444318435715035137?s=20.

On this very special episode, AEW's newest member of the Elite, Adam Cole comes on to talk everything videogames and his twitch.tv/thechugs channel. We talk about his love of Halo, what got him into gaming as well as Kenny asking some important retro game questions.

This episode I speak on couple CEO updates, Artist Alley Acceptances, Multiple Theme Park visits for special events, AEW's first TV Taping at Universal Sound Stage 19 for Dark and catching up on Gaming.

Happy Labor Day Weekend! On this episode I recap my last few months, 39th bday, moving forward with #CEO2021, dealing with social media and news headlines about Florida. Also recap AEW's All Out PPV (Adam Cole and Bryan Danielson debuts as well as CM Punk's Return) and seeing the #FGC lose their minds on one of the best PPVs of all time.

One of the most talked about topics in the FGC when brought up is how come open tournaments haven't switched from console to PCs. I talk about the costs, driver issues, ease of access and many other factors in switching from a centralized console that you know what to expect when running events and players are prepared compared to the massive costs using PCs for open tournaments with more than a few hundred players.

We re-opened CEO 2021 Registration to about 700+ more entrants and it sold out again near instantly. Dealing with the demand going forward and how community members should interact with events better as well as talk about my big summer project DreamHack Beyond happening in July!
Also, Guilty Gear -Strive- is really good and I've been learning something new/rewarding with every match.

In a little under an hour most of our games hit their capped numbers for #CEO2021. In 30 minutes two hotels sold out. The response to CEO coming back has been insane. I talk about what I've been up to the last few months, preparing for CEO's relaunch, how we decide the final game list (spoiler, it's mostly because of the capacity we want to uphold before returning to full speed ahead).

It's been a great start to the year full of fighting game news. This episode I share my thoughts on the Sony PlayStation Acquisition of EVO, FGC's largest fighting game event of the year, Zak Snyder's Justice League Cut, Mortal Kombat Movie and more pop news. Also share updates on CEO's status for 2021 in this episode. 

We discuss their awesome team tournaments, their love of Killer Instinct and what makes this community so great.

This was a live recorded episode on the twitch.tv/ceogaming with Foda. The man and heart behind a lot of the Brawlhalla Esports Live events and online tournaments along with his team. We discuss how far Brawlhalla has come from setups and LAN events, to crossovers and Foda's history in the gaming industry. Enjoy!

Fighting games are starting to build up again with new updates. After SFV's Winter Update stream, positivity and interest is alive and well. Guilty Gear Strive's open beta is coming this week. Oh and I left the house to pick up some new comics over the weekend.

On this episode I go over the Super Bowl a bit and all the after parties that make me not proud of Florida. Then my long history of all the good or bad jobs I worked before becoming a full time tournament organizer.

On this week, I talk about diving into the stock market (finally when it's too late), competing in #FGC event Frosty Faustings Online with a positive experience, the Royal Rumble and more.

On this week's episode, after fighting off a cold, forgive my voice, I praise the Oculus Quest 2 and talk about what Disney World is like with all of their Covid Precautions so my annual pass doesn't go to waste. Also a little preview of my working life before becoming a full time event organizer.
