Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 23rd episode, Connor speaks with Hollywood producer and 2006 Main Event champion Jamie Gold about growing up in New York City, learning poker from his parents and grandparents, playing poker with Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey and Johnny Chan in the 1990s, the early days of televised poker and his memorable 2006 Main Event run.
Gold also talked about his charity poker events that have raised more than a half-billion dollars for various causes, the future of poker content and what poker players can expect from GGPoker's $500 million purchase of the World Series of Poker.
The Life Outside Poker podcast is available on major streaming platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, SoundCloud and iHeartRadio. You can also watch the interview with Jamie Gold by heading to the PokerNews YouTube channel.

Last summer, the Free Poker Network Step Into the Ring National Championship saw John Mizeur, Wendy Adamczyk-D'Andrea, and Craig Ashley claim the FPN trophies and a $12,500 Main Event prize package.
These three champions outlasted a field of 324 to score the top prizes.
“I knew it was going to happen, I really did,” Mizeur said in his post-win interview, and the two other winners nodded in agreement.
"I'm feeling really shocked, and great. I really don't know how I did it, I just got lucky when I needed to," said the Illinois native Adamczyk-D'Andrea after claiming her biggest cash.
It was actually all three winners' biggest cash, and they were definitely excited about using the money to fire in more tournaments.
