Ok, some part of me knows that the VitaLite stuff will make absolutely no sense at all to our none English listeners, but it’s too much fun to pass up.
But as always that was only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our offtopic ramblings – however we do manage to get some gaming news covered along the way from the Diablo III chaos to the bankruptcy of team bondi and even disagreement between Bethesda & notch.
As always links to almost all the topics covered are after the jump.
Also as always we are still taking suggestions for the mid podcast songs. So if you have a suggestion for song to be included in the podcast then put it in the comments of this post or send them too @DrunkenGamer or @D_Gow . They will be put on the short-list and you will be mentioned in the podcast itself when played
Anyway enjoy this episode of the Drinky Talky Thing.

Looking into that now, but as is always the way I jinxed myself.
I was talking to someone yesterday about how stable my host is and last night it developed errors on one of it’s servers.
Guess which of their servers I’m on.
But anyway I’m uploading it to a alternative location now as well
