One Life Left — s04e03 — #75 — Saddle Up

Yo, tough guys the broadcast / podcast world over, know this: One Life Left has never been afraid of making enemies. Our independence allows us that freedom. We can say what we want about whoever we want and still be sure we’ll continue to not receive free things in the post (please send us free things in the post). We’re a videogame show with principles. Our main principle is that because we don’t have the opportunity to sell out you can be sure that we haven’t.
So yeah, we’re tough. Last week on the blog, though, we chose to pick on the wrong people. We stepped outside our gaming comfort zone and chose to pick on men with bikes. And this week, The Bike Show acted exactly how you might imagine The Bike Show would: with grace and humour, inviting us on to the last five minutes of their (professionally produced, diligently prepared, also podcast) show. You join us just after our unexpected backie, three presenters giddy from a magical bike ride through Resonance FM.
So, allow us a moment to calm down and then enjoy the news, the features, the music (see below) and the epic, astonishing letters section featuring actual post. And enjoy the post-production too, since this is a recut of Season 4, Episode 3, largely deglitched. If you feel like you’re missing out you should really tune in live but actually, this time the podcast listeners get the better deal: the new feature (no spoilers) is here in full, the victim of a dodgy last-minute CD burn in the FM-broadcast show. It is excellent.
With luck we’ll have another new feature next show and our first guest of the season. Maybe even the Nottingham announcement we’ve been teasing you with for some time. Do enter the competition, and write to us using our contact form or at the address in the show — your letters are consistently brilliant and make us happy.
Music: Thank You Mario But Our Princess Is In Another Castle / the Mountain Goats and Kaki King
PUBLIKUM / Stay Ali
Magical 8bit Tour / YMCK
Street Fighter II Sly Thai Guy OC Remix / Kaijin
All to be added to our music links page imminently. Do let people know about the show if you think they should know about the show and keep checking the blog for irregular / nonsenseical updates. We’ll see you in a week.

I think that’s probably the best Craig the Rage yet.
Hello team!
What’s the Flash cricket game that was mentioned in the show? I’m at work and need some way of drowning out the terror.
Apologies, I meant to put a link to that. Here it is:

Cheers Ste!
Could someone *please* tell Derek to play the music in his segment at a level where you can actually hear his voice?
I’m the brand new listener what loved your podcast.
That’s the only thing I got out of this latest show, but still loving it just the same.
Oh, also something about bikes? Where can I listen to more stuff about bikes? Because that would be excellent.
Hi zengonzo! I tried to reply on QT3 about this, but my registration is still pending after a year, so: thanks!

Yeah, that’s about right.
Extremely xenophobic, that bunch.
did I miss you announce the winner of the beer competition?
I missed it too – although I was quite tired at the time and my attention may have wandered for a moment.
defo the best Craig The Rage ever!
