Slow news week this week, despite GAMA Trade Show! That’s ok though as it gives our feckless heroes a chance to revisit the topic of opening your own game store and hit a few points they couldn’t manage to get in last week. All that, plus…well, just that really.

Just wanted to say I love the show.
I sometimes think I’d love to have a game store…. but then reality sets back in. The last show certainly was interesting and informative.
Amen brother. James (“Dr. Lucky”) Earnest once said that you shouldn’t start a game company unless you thought running a company sounded cooler than gaming. I think that applies a lot to opening a store, too. Its a lot of work – which is great if the work pans out, but its still a lot of work!
I just listened to the show I got the Jim Baker joke!
I am having trouble listening to this one, it won’t load for me. I can load/listen to the other podcast episodes, but #47 is off-limits. Can someone tell me where else to download it?
Regards,
Mark George
I am having trouble listening to this one, it won’t load for me. I can load/listen to the other podcast episodes, but #47 is a dead file.
I has a sad. #47 Won’t play for me either. Help?
I’ll try to get this fixed for everyone. I’m not sure what’s wrong with it. I will post again once I’ve got a new file up.
Hey everyone- there was a permissions error on the MP3 file. I’ve corrected it and the file should play for you now. Thanks for you interest in our back episodes!
Thank you!
