If you ever want to piss Jim Sterling off, but bereally, reallyentertained at the same time, just ask him to talk about arthouse videogames. He’ll sigh audibly, take a deep breath, and make the sort of statements — well, he’ll make the sort of statements you’re likely to hear in this week’s episode of Podtoid.As always, head to the official Podtoid page to check it out.
Our discussions included:
The Podtoid drinking game:Linde plays right into the listeners’ hands
Everybody is sort of ambivalent aboutThe Marriage:Can a legitimate attempt at artistic expression still succeed without being terribly interactive or emotional?
Everybody lovesPassage, except Jim:— Jim’s remnants of a heart are hard to touch, let alone break
Everybody hatesGravitation, except me: —“Maybe I was just willing to put more effort into it than you guys” is the perfect thing to say to make your cast resent you
Same deal withStars Over Half Moon Bay:—Take a drink.
This week,Spitfireasked the question which simultaneously revealed Linde’s hatred for his fellow castmates, but also the emotional dependence he unknowingly has on us. So he won the money. Hit the comments with your email address, Spitfire.
As we slowly approach episode 50, this is about the time I hint at the fact that episode 50 will be kind of…special. And will hopefully be more entertaining.
