A Life Well EWasted - Episode Five - Help!
Robert Ashley helps people in videogames instead of helping people in real life, meets a comedy group who spend hundreds of hours every year playing the most boring videogame ever created, talks to a guy who quit playing games for a year, and profiles the best selling pinball designer of all time.

Official episode poster by artist Olly Moss.

All of the ALWW posters are so good. I was going to buy the lot in a month or two, but I didn't realise that some aren't available yet and some are sold out. :(

Very neat poster as always.
The episode premise doesn't have me too excited, but of course I'll listen.

Just finished listening, great episode. Ep 5 poster is so bought, glad he made the decision to go for the larger size on this one.

I'm also glad he chose to "unlock" the 3rd poster rather than the 2nd first...still thinking of whether I should grab it or not.

I thought the episode was fantastic.

I have to say along with Top Gear, A Life Well Wasted is one of my most favourite (is that gramatically correct) pieces of media in history.

All I will say is: I do know, and it's not arbitrary. It's something to think on.

the remember bit under it, as well as the if in doubt cheat might have something to do with it.

I'm about to call in to the Desert Bus for Hope charity telethon: www.desertbus.org

I will sound like a zombie.

Also, they are going to auction off the first ALWW poster ever printed. The maze came out a little too purple, so I held it back from the original run. Here's a pic. http://twitpic.com/qxxx6

I'll sign it or whatever whoever wins it wants.
