It sounds like the dream job - playing video games full time, competitively and winning heaps of cash. You've probably read a glitzzy interview with a multimillionaire esports player and thought, hey I can do that.

But there is a lot that isn't discussed or shared. Turning competitive esports into a full time gig is no easy task. In this episode we give you the information you won't find in those PR pieces.

Featuring two of the world's top FIFA players, Mohamand "KingCJ" Diop and Julio "Beast" Bianchi.

Focal points include: Established versus developing regions and the competitive offerings available to players, how much money can you really make from being a full time esports player, the day in the life of a top esports player and the importance of education.
