    SpawnOnMe is one of my favorite non-giantbomb gaming podcasts and their newest episode they had David Jaffe on. It's a really fucking good interview.

    http://spawnon.me/spawn-podcast-95-drawn-jaffe/

    Who knew the creator of Twisted Metal's favorite genre of music would be top 40 pop? Outside of that there's some real interesting discussion on about the lack of diversity in game studio and it's causes.

    If you're not familiar with that podcast I think you could describe the tone as sort of like if the Beascast more actively talked about social issues and politics. So expect serious and interesting discussions punctuated with silly banter.

    Thanks for the heads up. I always enjoyed him on the GB E3 shows way back when.

    @d_w: Hey this is Kahlief from Spawn on Me. Thank you so much for listening and sharing the show. We had a great time hanging with David and we think we had conversations with him that he never had before. It really makes us happy to see that folks are digging what we're doing.

    Also, @csl316 our download link is fixed.

    I love Jaffe and his games. I wish Drawn To Death was a different project, though. It doesn't look like it's for me. I'll play it just to support him, but I'm not liking what I see so far.

    @bananasfoster:I wish I could actually get into a game... I played a bit at PSX and had a good time. Actually had a chance to talk to Jaffe.
    I put the controller down, he walked up to me and asked me what I thought about the game. He also periscope'd my tattoos, haha. Real cool dude.
