BMcC EDIT: Press release in the extended…
OFFICIAL ARSECAST PRESS RELEASE:
Graham Goring, writer, producer and recording artist behind The Arsecast today announced that he likes petting cats and dogs and that he gives five pounds a month to the RSPCA. He also gives up his seat on the train to elderly people who would otherwise have to stand and regularly buys chocolate biscuits for his co-workers at the office to enjoy.
When asked about these and the many other good things he’s done, Graham was typically modest. “I, uh, really don’t like to talk about this kind of thing. All the good deeds that I do are done purely out of the kindness of my heart – I’m not seeking any kind of reward or kudos or recognition for them. I just do these things to make the world a better place. If my five pounds a month just helps save one darling little kitten, like this one… aaaww. Then it will have been worth it. Oh… and you forgot to mention my seven pound standing order which goes to Shelter every month. Y’know, for the tramps.”
If you keep listening to the Arsecast then these, and other charitable acts will continue. Capisce?
Some said it could not be done, but the new Arsecast is out!
Some news featured: The Autofire Compo 2007, Aquaria at the IGF, and blah blah blah. Does he mention Guy Balding or what?

Practically the best indie game podcast right now, because the rest of the competition just closed shop and disappeared.
You’ll hate listening to the programme if you make crap games and throw a tantrum when receiving constructive feedback. Others will enjoy the honesty, something most indie game sites lack.

A new episode of The Arsecast is out, reviewing games that I’m too lazy to write about properly. (Thanks!)
Each episode is just like The Godfather, complete with swearing, shooting and bad apples.
And yes, version A is worth fifty quid on eBay now.
