The Podcastle episode 5: Legislation nation

Politics in your gaming podcasts? How did that happen? In this, the fifth installment of The Podcastle, your regular trio of Jim Sterling, Wardrox and Atheistium discuss the political situation regarding videogames in Europe. Sort of.

Actually, there is a surprising amount of (gasp) actual discussion in this episode, so if you tune into the show merely to hear the word c***, then you’ll probably be disappointed. That said, you will get to hear my new plan to open a fertility clinic in my bedroom, Atheistium divulge her secret videogame love fantasies, and the debut of RAGEDROX.

As ever, The Podcastle is available for playing or downloading on its podcast page, and hopefully we can have ourselves a slice of iTunes pie very soon. We’ll keep you posted.

    I take great offense to the whole “Don’t let children play games” idea. I got so pissed when I wasn’t allowed to play Vice City when I was 9. It made no sense whatsoever. When I finally got my hands on it, I handled it well.

    Where is the dialogue from the break from? It’s Simon Pegg (of Shaun of the Dead/Hot Fuzz fame) right?

  3. Herrick says:

    Atheistium wants a 60 year old Snake with a mullet and smoker’s lung?

    Robbing the grave, shameful woman.

    God, I love you guys… and gal. You should all come to Florida and get drunk with me and mine. We’ll go attack Disney or something.

    @danton d.

    That’s taken from Spaced, the sitcom they made before Shaun of the Dead, I would highly recommend it :)

  8. 3r0t1c n3rd says:

    What? I got face-slapped by the spambot? Damn. This is what you get for mentioning Hitler I guess…

  9. 3r0t1c n3rd says:

    MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Wow, another great podcast. Each episode gets more vulgar but that’s cool with me.

    Wardrox rules.

    - Brass Eye should be part of the GCSE curriculum. I don’t care what subject takes it on, it’s fucking awesome.
    - Piers Morgan edited the Daily Mirror. But he is a fucking shit - his humiliation on Have I Got News For You is superb.
    - My favourite game (and I’m a guy who doesn’t buy a lot, let alone partake in internet gaming) is GTA: San Andreas, which has, amongst other cool weapons, knives. Now, I may have picked up ebonics and and used the word “nigger” like I’m Enid Blyton, but I’ve still yet to kill anyone. Even when I used to work in Subway and had access to a variety of knives. Gordon Brown, Keith “fucking prick” Vaz et al are typical clueless politicians who don’t know games, being the wrong generation.
    - A BBFC woman came and gave a talk at my college, saying that Spider-Man killed the Green Goblin at the end of Spider-Man. I told her that Spider-Man jumped out the way of harm and didn’t touch the glider that the Goblin hurled towards himself. She disagreed. True story!
    - Who on Earth did that last song?!?! The Wurzels?!?

    Decided to start listening to the Podcastle, so have downloaded the 5 episodes, shall listen to them tomorrow at work, woo.

  13. Happyhead says:

    Wow, to my surprise I quite like the Podcastle! Episode 5 has definatly been the best so far. Keep up the good work : )

  14. Happyhead says:

    I actually have that Daily Mail front article stuck to my bedroom wall ‘Ban these sick games’ with pictures of the boxes for GTA 3 and Vice City double pack, Soldier of Fortune 2, State of Emergency, Manhunt, Doom 3, and Hitman, lolz
