Having a bad fur day? Well throw on your leisure suit, escape monkey island and join us as Holden takes us through the history of humor in video games in an episode demanded by all those Toe Jam and Earl and Boogerman fans. What makes humor work in video games and when does it fall flatter than a pickup line in Arkham City? Plus a dissection on why quips are the most overly used form of humor now in both video games and everything else. You'll definitely be GLaD(OS) you checked this one out!
