Founder’s Club - Episode 56: From Germany to the Vegas Strip — Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes with Andy Dietrich

In this conversation with Dez DeCosta, Andy takes us from his roots in Germany’s Black Forest to years in Berlin, a hard left turn to remote Alaska, and finally to the bright lights of the Vegas Strip. We get into how place shapes perspective, why humor is a powerful lens for insight, and the invisible rules that govern the choices we make when we “play the game.”

What we cover:
• Early influences from the Black Forest and how they shaped the tone of the book
• Berlin to Alaska to Las Vegas, and the turning points that made Andy a storyteller
• “Social misdemeanors,” favorite mishaps, and the lessons that stuck
• How to balance humor and heart so readers laugh and reflect
• Who Andy writes for, what he would tell his younger self, and what is next
