Hello everyone! Hope you all had a pleasant Christmas/Kwanzaa. To celebrate the festive period, and the forthcoming New Year, the Cookchase Gang flew to Lapland to record a Christmassy podcast! Listen to it below. Here are the highlights:
Gabriel introduces Nojan (who is from IRAN) to the idea of Christmas, and we pop a few crackers. We discuss the situation in Iran in a political discussion that lasts 0.4 seconds.
We talk about the most exciting stories of the year, and what we hope for next year. This includes the future of LucasArts.
We overview community projects and discussions. We mention Nightlight's Monkey Island radio play and MJ's mental breakdown in the forums. There is also a new HOT TOPIC (which is actually revisiting an old hot topic, Fan makes Psychonauts Steam patch available for all) as well as a really new HOT TOPIC which is 'Is Portal an adventure game?'
And of course we mention Jeepgate (how could we resist?) and revisit our regular subject, Paul Franzen.

Hope LucasArts do something cause in 2012 it will be the companies 30th Anniversary plus it will the 25th anniversary of the SCUMM engine.
Expect the occasion to be marked by a day-long 2.5% percent discount on all lightsaber replicas at starwarsshop.com.
The "Justin Park" thing was nice IMO. I wish you'd kept it.
Merry X-Mas guys :)
