The International House of Mojo

No Cook Chase Podcast this week, due to 'technical difficulties', and the fact that Dan took the week off to 'research' the Summer Solstice at Stonehenge. But! We can now release episode three of the B-series (also called the 'B-side'), which was recorded on February 14th 2010, and then locked inside a time-capsule for sixteen months. The hope was that the podcast, originally too controversial for this site, would receive a more understanding audience in the far-away future utopia known as 'June 2011'.

In this episode, called 'The Telltale Tirade', Gabriel phones in from prison, and Dan and Roger have been in hiding since the last podcast (when Gabriel recorded in the bath, in Skywalker Ranch, until he was arrested by burly guards). The main discussion topic is Telltale Games, and whether they have become too powerful, or too beloved, and whether it is justifiable to have a small group of people questioning and criticising them, in order to maintain a balance of opinion. Also discussed: screenshot leaks, Telltale job listings, and 'Poetry Wars' -- a segment in which games-related poetry fight each other (metaphorically).

The previous two B-side podcasts can be listened to here, and the ghastly album cover can be viewed here. Thanks a lot to Roger/Zaarin for editing these podcasts together.
