Squirrel on a Stick

Ok, so there's no excuse for the opening 30 seconds, but after that it settles down a lot an we talk about all the normal things: iPhone games, console games, stolen BMWs & Columbian nannies.

Sure, we don't get to video games until the 25 minute mark, but that's what happens when you do these things in one take. Apologies to Jim's dad & Kent's brother(s).

After an inexcusable and completely unjustified hiatus, Kent Valentine and Jim Smallman return with a tight 30 mins on video games, 80s cartoon theme tunes and the lack of morality in the Transformers.

At least 8 weeks after everyone else has done their “best of 2010" shows, Jim & Kent turn up to the party fashionably late with a list, a microphone and an hour.

If you like us, half as much as we love you, then you’ll probably have a lovely time listening to the show.

Rock on.

Kent Valentine (married) and Jim Smallman (divorced) discuss Feist, fictional wrestling finishing moves, a The Sims, getting married in games and casual murder.

To be honest, this podcast doesn’t do a very good job of explaining the 4 month gap between this episode and the last, but I’ve been very busy and it’s been sitting on my hardrive for 3 months waiting to be edited. Sorry about that.

In the long-awaited Episode 6 (which bears no resemblance to its preview), Jim & Kent talk about 1983 arcade flop Stinger, Jim’s favourite Japanese game voices & the problem with rollercoasters.

Jim & Kent have been so caught up in the real world that we haven’t had time for any of our Squirrel on a Stick fantasy endeavours.

Not wanting you to have to go a full fortnight without us, here’s a little teaser for what will be coming up in the next episode.

Kent makes bad assumptions, Jim throws up, Kent gets angry at sport and Jim complains that Red Dead Redemption is just too darn easy. Yee haw!

Jim gets eaten by a cougar, Kent gets barracuda’d by an alien, Raoul Moat gets it from himself, Jim gets lice from IKEA, Kent gets nothing from Ayn Rand & Gazza gets to eat the chicken.

This issue we get medical and it’s not just the gloves that are coming off! Recorded in glorious mono, this episode recalls the ups and downs of the public health system and the importance of pants when playing ISS Soccer in the 90s.
