    It’s finally time! Catsman, Mooglepies, Woolyshambler, Specs and ZootSuitBrute put aside 2 hours for your listening pleasure to FINALLY talk about the TV that fell off the wall!

    Oh, and Ape Out, which was the book club game.

    A picture of the TV being affixed to the wall

    The next book club game is Populous: The Beginning. If you want to play it, the EA store version WILL NOT WORK ON MODERN PCs so I advise getting the GOG copy and you’ll also need something like this: https://thebeginning.uk/enhanced-edition/

    There’s also a multiplayer client which can patch it in a similar way.

    Poll for the next book club game is here: https://poll.ly/TIihWPRTUMSypv8TLDqD please vote and we will better know what you want us to play.

    We’re aiming to release a podcast series about all the games in UFO 50. It’ll probably be in our youtube feed, maybe not in your podcast feed. Reminder that we also do a podcast about Pokémon.

      This episode was edited by Specs. Sorry if it sounds shit again. I actually had to get people to re-record some lines here and there. Don’t worry, I’m sure we’ll get our acts together some time. We’ve only been doing this for like 10 years.

                      At least 1/3rd of the episode was edited on a flight to Malaysia (truly Asia). If we’ve said anything offensive in the last 3rd of the podcast, then that’s probably fine because it was done over international waters. I highly recommend watching the Malaysian Airlines safety briefing. It’s cool.
