Jeff Benson and Audio Candy’s Charlie Verdin join us this week to run the show! They choose the topic of Video Game music and the 5 of us talked about our fave music from games.

If you missed it last week, my last show will be number 123… next week! It’s going to be the last audience participation cast so if you have questions for the podcast crew as it stands today. Post your questions here as we change the guard next week or leave a sweet voice mail at 503-446-CAST. Charlie and Jeff will be running the show with Ben and Matt will be moving to a weekly video game news segment instead before the show changes format the following week.
