So, just to apologize in advance to everyone: we were supposed to have a huge guest on today but over the past year or so, as we continue to grow into the best and biggest video game podcast in the world, we've had to delegate some of the booking to an outside person.

On your marks...get set...get ready...listen to today's excellent episode with a mechanic from Mario Kart!

It's always nice when we can finally get a VERY requested guest to join us on the podcast. Today we have an original PlayStation icon, Spyro the Dragon!

We know this might be controversial, but here at PCP we like to hear all the sides of the story. So today we're giving a voice to the CEO of Umbrella Corp.
