One Life Left

Definitely the UK's favourite radio show (sort of) about videogames.


Commissioned by London’s award-winning Resonance 104.4 FM in early 2006, One Life Left was only meant to run for six episodes.

Take that, The Man because now, somewhere around one hundred and fifty episodes later, it’s in its seventh season and grown from humbling, terrified, fumbling beginnings into one of the station’s most valued shows.

Take THAT, The Man. Also take that, British radio standards.

One Life Left shows are like buses. They’re noisy, difficult to control, dangerous to cyclists and they have very little to do with videogames. No, wait, that’s not right…

Isn’t it something to do with how you wait ages for one and then (potentially) three come along at once? Like:

1) This episode, which was lost for two weeks before Ste managed to locate the memory card (which came perilously close to the washing machine)…

2) Last week’s episode, which didn’t record (because we had to borrow one from Resonance, which turned out not to work) but we’re hoping for a bootleg copy tomorrow…

and 3) Tomorrow’s episode, which you can hear live on Resonance 104.4FM or streamed at www.resonancefm.com at 7pm. Normally we’d tell you to wait for the podcast, but, etc.

We’ll be addressing our ‘timing’ ‘issues’ in Season 6*,

In this episode, the first of the trilogy, please find some minor amount of videogame discussion alongside One Life Left’s plans for 2011 and lots of brilliant music / features. It’s going to be a good year.

love,

Team OLL
