Across these early episodes, we meet the full ensemble cast: Jennifer Aniston as fashion-loving waitress Rachel Green (The Morning Show, Horrible Bosses), Courteney Cox as perfectionist chef Monica Geller (Scream, Cougar Town), Lisa Kudrow as eccentric musician Phoebe Buffay (Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, The Comeback), Matt LeBlanc as aspiring actor Joey Tribbiani (Episodes, Man with a Plan), Matthew Perry as sarcastic office worker Chandler Bing (The Whole Nine Yards, 17 Again), and David Schwimmer as sweet but awkward paleontologist Ross Geller (Band of Brothers, Madagascar).

Ep.263 – Swinging Through History: How Pitfall! Became the First Great Platformer

A Trip Down Memory Card Lane

In 1982, David Crane pushed the Atari 2600 to its limits with only four kilobytes of memory, creating Pitfall!, a jungle adventure that became one of the system's best-sellers. Our conversation traces Crane's journey from Atari to co-founding Activision, his experiments that led to the iconic “running man” sprite, and the algorithm that generated 255 screens on the fly. We highlight how Raiders of the Lost Ark, Saturday cartoons, and clever coding shaped Pitfall Harry's swings on vines, leaps across crocodiles, and treasure hunts. We also revisit its commercial success, Jack Black's cameo in a TV ad, and the technical marvel of Pitfall II: Lost Caverns. Though later revivals varied, the original proved consoles could deliver real adventures. Join us as we revisit the leap that defined platforming on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.Read transcript

AJ and Andy review the series two episode in which Natalie and her new boyfriend Francois are injured when a communist group blows up the train on which they are travelling. These Brussels-based communists are led by Paul Vercors who it transpires is determined to take over Lifeline via Max Brocard.  For this David Crane-scripted and Viktors Ritelis-directed episode AJ and Andy find themselves conducting impromptu investigations into: the communist's terrible plan; the sudden introduction of Francois; and the portrayal of the Belgian black market.  Elsewhere they explore the development of Albert and Monique's relationship, the fate and travels of a perfume box and discuss their 'least 5' favourite episodes of Secret Army, of which this is most definitely one. As well as hearing from Alex and Ryan on their thoughts we hear from Belgian Peter Thiebaut on his memories of the series. We also mark the passing of Andree Dumon, the last survivor of the Comete Line, the evasion network on which Lifeline is based: https://heldenvanhetverzet.be/artikels/in-memoriam-andree-nadine-dumon-1922-2025-english-version If you would like to contact us then please email us on, or send a voicenote to: secretarmypod@gmail.com or send us a message on Bluesky: AJ is on secretarmypod.bsky.social while Andy can be found at andypodding.bsky.social.

Casi cinco años de producción han sido necesarios para realizar este documental que cuenta la historia de cómo una idea surgida en 1972 cambió la manera de jugar en todo el mundo, y para siempre. “Gameplay. La historia de los videojuegos”, dirigido por Richard Goldgewicht y basado en los libros escritos por los periodistas e historiadores especializados en juegos electrónicos Bill Loguidice y Matt Barton (guionistas y productores del filme), cuenta esa historia desde sus orígenes, haciendo un recorrido por los juegos más icónicos y rompedores de los últimos 40 años. Así, el documental muestra la tecnología utilizada para su creación, el nacimiento de las máquinas recreativas, de los juegos arcade -como “Pong” o “Pac Man”- y de otros tan célebres como “Lara Croft”, “Doom”, “Grand Theft Auto” o “Super Mario”, todo ello acompañado de originales gráficos y animaciones que proporcionan al filme una estética propia de los videojuegos. Además, pioneros como Nolan Bushnell, David Crane, Noah Falstein, John Romero, Todd Howard y muchos otros ofrecen entrevistas exclusivas en este documental que se convierte en la crónica de una de las evoluciones tecnológicas y culturales más rápidas de toda la historia.

Pixelated Audio is back from another VGMCon in Minnesota, this time about space! Joining Gene once again from last year are Pernell from Rhythm and Pixels and Carlos from Heroes Three! We did a similar panel last year; we take a broad theme and make it educational, and then use it as an excuse to cram in all sorts of VGM examples. We had some tech issues and lost some of the recording but we were able to rescue it with a more laid back "part 2" we recorded in the hotel room as a way to fill in gaps and riff for a while. Prepare for launch on this massive double episode clocking in at almost 2 hours! We discuss space, its influence on games and computing, and a wide range of games that have a direct or sometimes tenuous link to space. We've got a ton of music this episode so we hope you enjoy it.

Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act, the Department of Energy has been flush with cash for the past couple of years. Between the two measures, the DOE now has nearly $100 billion to put toward clean energy and grid development projects around the country through funding and loans. There's an expectation that these contributions will drive private investment—and they have been. This July, the DOE reported nearly $50 billion in funding awards already, with more than $60 billion in private investments matching federal dollars. This week, host Bill Loveless talks with David Crane about where these funds have been going and what effects they're having on clean energy applications around the country. They also discuss how the DOE is addressing nationwide energy challenges like transmission line permitting, storage, and other hurdles to decarbonization. David is the under-secretary for infrastructure at the Department of Energy. He previously served as director of DOE's Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations. He was also CEO of Climate Real Impact Solutions, as well as NRG Energy.

On today's episode I had the pleasure of talking to Ophira Eisenberg about her journey to becoming a standup comic, parenting and work life balance. Ophira is a Canadian-born standup comedian, writer, and host. She hosted NPR's comedy trivia show Ask Me Another for 9-years, where she interviewed and played silly games with hundreds of celebrities including Sir Patrick Stewart, Awkwafina, Rosie Perez, Yo-Yo Ma, Bob The Drag Queen, Nick Kroll, Chelsea Handler, Jim Gaffigan, Michael C. Hall, and so many others. As a comic and a parent to a 6-year-old, Ophira is the host of the new comedy podcast Parenting Is A Joke co-produced by iHeart Radio and Pretty Good Friends Productions. The show launches on October 18th. She can be seen live, regularly headlining across the United States, Canada, and Europe delivering her unique blend of standup and storytelling to a loyal fan base of smart, irreverent comedy lovers. She has appeared at Montreal's Just for Laughs Festival, The New Yorker Festival, The New York Comedy Festival, Moontower Comedy Festival, Bumbershoot, The Nantucket Film Festival, Women in Comedy Festival and more. Her new comedy album at special Plant-Based Jokes is available on iTunes and is streaming now on YouTube. Lauded as “hilarious, high risk, and an inspiration,” Ophira filmed her comedy special Inside Joke, when she was 8½ months pregnant. The show's material revolves around how she told everyone that she was never going to have kids, and then unexpectedly found herself expecting at “an advanced maternal age.” Her other comedy albums, Bangs! and As Is She has appeared on Comedy Central, This Week at The Comedy Cellar, Kevin Hart's LOL Network, HBO's Girls, Gotham Live, The Late Late Show, The Today Show, and VH-1. The New York Times called her a skilled comedian and storyteller with “bleakly stylish” humor. She was also selected as one of New York Magazine's “Top 10 Comics that Funny People Find Funny,” and hailed by Forbes.com as one of the most engaging comics working today. Ophira is a regular host and teller with The Moth and her stories have been featured on The Moth Radio Hour and in two of The Moth's best-selling collections, including the most recent New York Times Bestseller: How To Tell A Story: The Essential Guide to Memorable Storytelling from The Moth. Ophira's first book, Screw Everyone: Sleeping My Way to Monogamy (Seal Press), is a comedic memoir about her experiments in the field as a single woman, traveling from futon to futon and flask-to-flask, gathering data, hoping to put it all together and build her own perfect Frankenmate. It was optioned for a feature film. She is also sought after as a brilliant interviewer and moderator, and has interviewed dozens of celebrities, writers, and actors including Neil Gaiman at New York's Town Hall; Jane Curtain, Anne Beatts, Heather Gardner, Sudi Green, Alysia Reiner, Jeanne Tripplehorn, David Crane, Jeffrey Klerik at The Nantucket Film Festival; Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Daniel Levy and Annie Murphy at the 92nd Street Y; and Nell Scovell and Sloane Crosley at The Mark Twain House. Originally from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Ophira graduated with a Cultural Anthropology and Theater degree from McGill University. She now lives in Brooklyn, NY where she is a fixture at New York City's comedy clubs including the Comedy Cellar, Gotham Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club and Carolines, as well as Brooklyn's famed performance venues The Bell House, Union Hall, and Littlefield.

Broadway Bound: The Musicals That Never Came to Broadway

So no one told you creating musicals was going to be this way? (clap, clap, clap) Now you might be asking, what in the name of Smelly Cat does the TV show Friends have to do with Broadway? Well, before Marta Kauffman and David Crane created that quintessential 90s sitcom, they were musical theater writers and had their hearts set on The Great Bright Way. But, they had to pivot. What happened was…..well, we're gonna let Marta, David, and composer Michael Skloff tell you themselves in this week's episode of BROADWAY BOUND: THE MUSICALS THAT NEVER GOT TO NEW YORK which explores Arthur: The Musical, or “The One Where A Great Score Needs To Be Heard” The Broadway Bound Players: Catherine DeLuce as the Reporter Matt Koplik as David Richards Fair use is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances.
