The Podcastle 18 records tomorrow: It won't be called PAXcastle photo

Yeah, so Wardrox went to PAX while Atheistium and I did nothing but cry and masturbate. We skipped a week while The 'Drox was off gallivanting in America, but we're pleased to announce that The Podcastle is once again lowering its drawbridge and inviting ye of peasant stock to sup ale in our banquet hall once more. 

Our boy from the North will want to talk about all the fun he had at PAX, but there is also some general Euro news to cover, such as the fact that Ian "O hai I killed two schoolgirls" Huntley is allegedly provided with a Wii while wardens are asked to babysit him. We also have Germany's game bannin' shenanigans and the lack of an Xbox 360 price cut to complain about. 

All this and probably not much more is yours to enjoy and we will be recording at 6pm BST, so please provide us with your questions and comments, which we might read on the show, ensuring E-fame and E-riches beyond your wildest E-dreams.

Hey wardrox, wasn't PAX awesome! Also, how did you fool them all into thinking you're not a dick?

Wouldn't giving the guy a Wii only make him more likely to lash out violently in the future?

Question:

How does crying and masturbation work? Did it hurt, or was Pax better than "Fake-Sorta-Havein' It With Yourself" sex?

Cause if it is, damn.

I need to get me some Pax 09 money.

Greetings from the prison colonies chaps and chappette! What's the longest amount of time any of you have spent in a single gaming session?

Also if you could go to a country and Un-Ban a game, where would you go and what game would you Un-Ban?

Wardrox: I am sure PAX was great, but how much did the rest of America suck balls? How awful was American beer? Feel free to rant on that a little.

I've little else to say, other than ask why Germany sucks at video game policies.

EA dropped the price of Rock Band by £20 this week. Do any of you give anything that might even resemble a shit?

Also, how much have you drunk since recording started?

So Chris Furniss (or someone from The Weekly Geek) told me that Jim Sterling couldn't go to PAX, because the ticket Destructoid booked for him was under the name Jim Sterling (which is apparently not his name). Confirm or Deny Jimmy!

So just where is Dead Space banned? Dtoid reported it was Germany, Japan, and China, which was weird. Then Gamepolitics called us on our bullshit, pointing out how Japan at least makes no sense, so what's the deal?

Here's the Limerick for this episode: Hope you Enjoy :)

It's a convention that bring much cheer
With fun games, and friends and beer
But Jim was left to brood
And take photos in the nude
He can't make it to PAX this year :(

Question: If Europeans ever held there own PAX where should it be held? (Answer: Insominia's boat "The Flying Druglord")

O hi thur guys. Here's this week's limerick commin at ya.

Athistium was looking for a shag
When she ran into the sudden life loving fag
Since he's a trecharous, smelly vagabond
cause he went to the indie game con
Jim will hunt him like a stag
Questions.
Jim. You gave Castle Crashers a 9, while you gave GTA IV an 8. Do I smell controversy cooking in the kitchen, or is that just some of your crusty rolls?
Wardrox: You know what, I'm so jealous you don't even deserve a question, let alone be on a podcast with THE JIM STERLING :P. Also, How was rooming with Azn Joe?
Athistium: After the patch, can we finally finish our game of Castle Crashers?
Everyone: Call of Duty World at War. Amazing, or quite shit actually?

During the masturbate-athon who came the most? That Podcastle shirt looks awesome, where can I get one? German scat porn looks just as violent as video games, don't you think? One last question for Jim: Did you ever interview Reggie Fils-Aime before you called him all those loving names? What would you do if you came face to face with him and he brought up the subject of why you call him a hamburgular and other friendly names? Keep up the good work guys, this is still the best podcast on D-toid.

When are we expected to see Podcastle themed merchandise such as above and a spin off game named Podcastle Crashers which has no similarities with a certain other game whose artist was on Podtoid?

If you were Mike and Jerry (and then their little pet. Fight between yourselves as to who is who) how would you want PAX '09 to be? You can do whatever you want because you have monies and fucking lots of it!

I forgot to ask Lauren this question which I'm dying to know forever: Is it red downstairs like it is upstairs? If yes then Grrrrrrrr munch munch munch. Just to let Wardrox not feel left out, Wardrox, is it mohawk green downstairs like it is upstairs? If yes then you you need to seek help dood.

..Shouldn't the suicidal dude get therapy instead of a Wii? He seems kind of a like a spoiled kid who kicks and screams and cries until his parents give him GTAIV.

Also, I agree with Azn Joe aka IEE: Bacon beer review plz.

Question: What did you guys think about the piece of news from a while back where they discovered that in British prisons, inmates were allowed to play video games provided by taxpayers' money? The media didn't focus on the fact that taxpayers were paying for privileges for inmates that were supposed to be taken away from them as a major point of incarceration, but focused on the fact (scare-tactic) that violent criminals were playing violent games (like GTA, duh) which could make them re-committ violent offences once they were released.

So I'm not complaining about the reciprocation of free money, supplied by Podtoid, scrap that I am.

Now Jim your a reasonable man (I hear) therefore could you organize it so that British winners receives 25 pounds rather than 12 and a half. (If this is already the case then I apologize and quickly retract my question/statement.)

P.S I love the show its nice when fed into my ear, and Wardrox your just like jazz, keep up the good work.

P.S.S I don't much care for the euro.
