What happens when two gamers with zero coding skills design their dream game from scratch? Absolute chaos and pure gold. From ridiculous power-ups to questionable NPCs, we brainstorm the ultimate (and probably unplayable) video game. No rules, no budget, just vibes.

In this episode, we go behind the scenes with the brilliant mind behind Rooftops & Alley: The Parkour Game. This indie title is turning heads with its fluid movement, immersive environments, and adrenaline-fueled freedom. From the first sketch of a skyline to the final lines of code, we explore the journey of building a game that lets players run, leap, and vault their way through urban landscapes. Whether you're a game dev, a parkour fan, or just love a good origin story, this one’s for you.

In this swashbuckling episode we’re joined by legendary actor Jonathan Linsley best known to many as Crusher from Last of the Summer Wine but today we set sail with him as he takes us behind the scenes of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest and At World’s End.

Jonathan shares what it was really like filming with Johnny Depp the madness of life aboard the Flying Dutchman and how it felt to transform into the fearsome Head Gunner Olgilvey with full prosthetics special effects and all. Expect wild filming stories Hollywood-scale surprises and a few laughs along the way.

This week’s episode is guest hosted by Harry who jumps into the co-captain's chair to navigate Jonathan’s unforgettable journey from Yorkshire theatre stages to Disney blockbusters.

Whether you're a theatre lover a film buff or just here for the pirate tales this one’s a treasure.
