KritzKast interviews Brad Pitt

Posted on: Mar 4th 2013 by Agro

We have had it on the cards to interview Brad Pitt, the man behind backpack.tf, for some time. As the year turned we posted a request for you to submit questions. Some time later we’d sorted through the 6000+ entries and selected some good ones. I asked HelenAngel from SteamRep, Helene our head admin for the KK|GU servers, as well as Brad Pitt himself to pick out a couple of their favourite questions from the 240 short-list.

What follows is the interview we recorded Feb 14th 2013. Those lucky few who’s questions were asked and answered here you each receive a Vintage Lo-Fi Longwave and a badge on your bp profile.

Congratulations go to:

Lemons from  Dublin, Ireland
That One Guy from  London, England
Bracey from  St Neots, England
Turtle from  Brisbane, Australia
Jevgein from  Hamburg, Germany
Crit from  USA
Stex from  Pennsylvania, USA

Hats have already been distributed, unless you already have a vintage (you can’t have more than one).

HelenAngle as a picker. And Mattie “won” the hat?
Yeah sure, manipulating ******.

Agro

Brad Pitt himself picked out that question a long time before I thought to ask HelenAngel to co-host with with Helen and me.
I may have teased HelenAngel about it during the interview but it was beyond her control.
As it happens Mattie already had a v. Lo-Fo from a different event so he’s asked that we give this one on to someone else.

I love how HelenAngel read your submission, “and now a question from that one guy in England”. Best name ever for making Americans think there’s only one dude in GB.

Great interview! Very interesting to hear a discussion of TF2 economics. And thanks for asking my question, and for the Lo-Fi! I will wear it with pride.

Any chance of interviewing Yanis Varoufakis someday? He’s probably a pretty busy man, but it might be worth asking.

We’d love to but I think I should practice saying his name a little more.
