Poker theorist and author Mike Caro has returned for a rare long-form interview in episode 1,012 of the PokerNews Podcast. PokerNews released the episode on October 22 and presents it as Caro's first extended appearance after roughly two decades away from the public poker scene.

Host Chad Holloway leads the first installment of a planned two-part conversation. The podcast listing says Caro discusses his early years in poker, the development of his work on physical tells, and principles including what he calls the Law of Least Tilt.

The episode also turns to Caro's friendship and work with Doyle Brunson. The format gives Caro room to recount episodes from their relationship and connect those memories with the development of his approach to poker strategy.

PokerNews also flags stories about the early online room Planet Poker and Caro's extended absence. The episode announcement does not provide a release date for the second installment, so listeners should treat the current program as the opening half of the interview.
