This week, the Podtoid crew discusses this lecture by Jon Blow, which you should probably listen to if you have the time if you want something that -- if you\'re anything like the Podtoid crew -- you will vehemently disagree with but find very interesting.

As always, you can listen to the new episode here. Highlights included:

- If you want to get to the actual discussion, skip ahead 6 or 7 minutes

- Story meaning vs dynamical meaning

- Challenge vs progression

- Interactivity vs pre-baked delivery

- Doo-doo humor

- Phallus Knife Fight is good at drawing things

This week\'s question winner is pi to the 42. Send your mailing address to reverendanthony[a t]gmail [d ot]com, Mr. To the 42, and we\'ll send you a Dtoid swag bag.

[The music, as will be the case for every subsequent Podtoid for the forseeable future, is from the Top Gun soundtrack.]
