      <title>No Tune Unturned: Interview With Chainsaw</title>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[No longer content with sitting alone in a room and typing things about video game music, I've invited one of the super cool people who actually compose said video music to join me in this third episode of No Tune Unturned. Matt “Chainsaw” Chaney, Supreme High Commander of Audiological Endeavours at Twisted Pixel Games, was kind enough to talk with me about character-based music, guitar lessons that led to falling ten feet onto concrete, and-- inevitably-- donuts.]]>

      <title>Critical Talk Episode 7</title>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[If you're a fan of both Christmas cheer and video games, you've come to the right podcast. Stephen, Matt, and Luke have more than enough of that in the newest episode of Critical Talk!

-Listen patiently as Stephen complains about not owning Christmas NiGHTS again!
-Clap your hands with glee as Luke recalls hitting hobos with two-by-fours!
-Google "Saturn train controller" to see Matt's mark on the world!

Yes, it certainly is Christmastime in Critical Talk Episode 7. Why not join the festivities yourself?

The Critical Talk Theme Song was created by Steven, but not the host known as Stephen.

      <description>
        <![CDATA[Guess what time it is! If you guessed Critical Talk with Stephen, Luke, and Anthony, you're dead right.

-Laugh until you can laugh no more as Luke explains why James Pond is such a funny, funny name!
-Maybe laugh slightly less as Stephen insults an entire language!
-Chuckle uncomfortably as you try to figure out what, precisely, Anthony means by "puddle of chunky horror"!

What a roller-coaster of smiles your in for with Critical Talk Episode 6. Give it a listen!

      <description>
        <![CDATA[Stephen, Luke, and Matt have returned for this most triumphant of occasions: Critical Talk!

-Drop your jaw in utter shock as the panelists decide that Arkham City is definitely not bad!
-Allow your mind to reel at the vast possibilities of good licensed games!
-Go to Canada and solve puzzles!

Even if you currently hate everyone on the panel, you'll probably become their best friends for all of time by the end of Critical talk Episode 5.

The music was created by Steven (not Stephen; keep your facts straight). Except for the Nyan Cat song. That was probably created by a crazy person.]]>
