Today's bonus episode is brought to you by the wonderful folks at Tales from the Cartridge, a podcast about video games and the stories they tell us!

I suggested Oddworld, a series that always piqued my interest and I'm glad I did, because this episode delivers. When you finish here, dive into more great episodes by Tales from the Cartridge wherever you listen to podcasts (seriously, they cover every genre!)
