I posted this link in my second post, but I'll give the link again:
https://archive.org/details/getlamp-interviews
The first entry on that page is the 2-DVD set of the "Get Lamp" documentary. At one time it was sold commercially, but the stock was sold out, and I guess the author (Jason Scott) decided to put the DVD set up for free download. It's basically the same information as the raw interviews, but it's been edited down for better presentation.
The two DVDs are big - they're dual capacity DVDs, and the two ISO files total almost 15 GB. I don't have any physical dual-layer DVD disks, but I found out that you can use the VLC media player to run the ISO files directly off of your hard drive.
Another interesting web site is the "Eaten By A Grue" site: https://monsterfeet.com/grue/
It's two guys who decided to play every Infocom game over a period of several years and make audio podcasts in which they discuss playing the games. Usually about 2/3 through the podcasts, they have a "spoiler fence" where you should stop listening if you don't want to be exposed to any spoilers.

Nothing important, just a couple of interesting links.
Planet Interactive Fiction is sort of an IF blog aggregator:
The Digital Antiquarian is a blog about mostly IF, and the guy often goes into quite a bit of detail. I think this one is another rabbit hole I'm going down...
