09/11/2022 Duración: 01h11minHello and welcome once again, dearest listeners, to another episode of One Life Left. Amongst this week's healthy dose of video game related news, letters and reviews we find out how visiting petrol stations can fuel your Marvel Snap purchases, what happened to Simon's PSVR (it's not in a canal), there's a murder in a Lego factory and Ste is done with gaming subscription services. Maybe. Plus a tantalising hint about the OLL Xmas Party and we have another installment of Alice Curran: Game Designer At Large! Meanwhile, a message for Future Simon: You've played Uncharted 4. Don't do it again. Have you ever asked Hideo Kojima if you can buy his studio? Did he say "maybe"?

#488 - Squad Up!

This week we find out how to deal with Big Gary, beware padlocked lofts, discover Dominos pizza have secret VIP doors and also that cease and desist orders actually result in good promo coverage.

In amongst all of that there is all the regular video game related news, letters and reviews you know and love PLUS a brand new "ongoing" feature: Alice Curran: Game Designer At Large! How do you humanise your outreach, listeners? Write in and let us know, plus feel free to ask any gaming related question your heart may desire, at team@onelifeleft.com or pose a question to us on our Discord.

#487 - Flap
26/10/2022 Duración: 01h08minWelcome to One Life Left, the longest running video game related radio show... podcast! This week all of our children are being put to bed by other people and we have an SSG!! Kind of... Once you've recovered from that shock we also find out about stressful birdmen on Nintendo Switch, what's in the box of Sony's new controller, discover Marvel Snap is Greedy Wizards (Maybe. Can I say that, lawyers?!), get hamstrung by a potato, lie on "brightness" settings and Mortal Kombat has its boundaries pushed! Meanwhile, Maraoke is going to Japan! Possibly. Can't make it to Japan? Then we'll be back at Loading Peckham on Saturday November 19th... check out the Maraoke Twitter page for updates. Have you ever got up early to play a video game?

#486 - DX4-100
19/10/2022 Duración: 01h03minWelcome to another episode of the world's longest running football show: One Life Left! A leg-free zone, until it isn't, where it's always morning and all our children seem to be acting up at the same time! Conspiracy?! This week a bird poops on the shed door (which goes down very well with our '5 to 6 year olds' demographic), we're not surprised by Stadia closing, Ste plays more than 7 minutes of FIFA and talks about legs, Simon couldn't care less about Silent Hill and the new recording software breaks again. We also learn how Kevin Bacon has annoyed us lately and that Maraoke should have an entrance exam... plus more news, letters and reviews than you can safely shake a stick at. Possibly. Do you have a watch? Has a game ever made you question what you've done?? Do classic side-scrollers in the mold of popular Ocean games of the 80s & 90s exist anymore???

#482 - Live a Little
27/07/2022 Duración: 01h07minWelcome once again, dear listeners, to the podcast edition of the World's Longest Running Video Game Related Radio Show: One Life Left! This week we recorded the show live on our Discord server and sounded at least 1% sexier thanks to performing to a crowd. In amongst the news, letters and reviews we had Simon surviving a trip to IKEA to buy a new desk, Ste being fine with not buying the new Atari Lego, Ubisoft cancelling lots and how you'll have to move house and change your whole identity if there's ever a security breach anywhere. The show also briefly turns into Hot UK Deals and we have Simon's Live Fast Five - Games With User Generated Content (that's UGC for the cool kids). Maraoke returns to Bristol!

#481 - Zoom Bye
20/07/2022 Duración: 01h06minWelcome once again to the podcast edition of One Life Left! We have an even hotter episode for you this week, quite literally... We battle the heat and, with sweat patches aplenty, still manage to bring you a plethora of reviews, a sack full of news and, well, there were no letters this week, instead we review the latest goings on in our Discord server, but more of that later... We also have hot weather coping tips, Ste's adventures at Develop and we briefly consider bringing back the Games Media Awards for our own devious ends! Also we have Simon attempting to filibuster his way out of another Fast Five. Listen in to hear how he did! Meanwhile, this episode's Simon Byron's Fast Five covers Hottest Video Games! We forgive you for not sending any letters in this week, dear listeners, but the price of admission to be one of our live, not-studio, audience members at 7pm next Sunday is a letter, plus join our Discord server - an absolute bargain at half the price!

#480 - Wetsuit Weekly
12/07/2022 Duración: 01h08minIt's too hot to type, dear listeners! Instead imagine, if you will, that I've just spent the past hour and a bit listening to this podcast that you all know and love and am then typing notes about Simon's exploits as a new wetsuit owner and how much is too much vaseline when putting on a wetsuit, Ste almost maybe admitting to possibly harassing Nintendo over Twitter via anonymous accounts in his pursuit for more F-Zero games and our dynamic duo's plans for Develop:Brighton this week. Then imagine I'm mentioning this episode also covers all the usual news and reviews and that I'm thanking you for the letters this week before imploring you to please send more letters to us at team@onelifeleft.com or by joining our ridiculously friendly Discord server at https://discord.gg/nzcMpvbCpk Envisage me then mentioning the possibility of a Maraoke event in Bristol this month on July 27th and that you might find out more at this link: https://www.facebook.com/singmaraoke or this link https://twitter.com/singmaraoke bef

Caller: Some children in the park are pulling twigs off a tree. Operator: Ah. Not really a crime, that, sir... Caller: Well, there's also a dead hedgehog in the road, here. Operator: Erm. OK. One of those days... Again, sir, not a crime. Is it causing a hold-up, stopping traffic or anything? Caller: No but it doesn't look great... Operator: As I said, then, not a crime. Caller: OK, well, how about this: Simon Byron dropped a c-bomb on the latest edition of One Life Left. Operator: A what? Caller: A c-bomb. You know? He said the word cu- Operator: Oh! Yes sir, I understand... Caller: Well, it was beeped out but the beep didn't half distress my cat... Operator: Poor thing. Caller: Thank you. Operator: What else happened?

#476 – Social Deduction
01/06/2022 Duración: 01h07minThis week’s show sees our very handsome hosts struggle to maintain their usual award-winning radio standards but it’s still the best thing you’ll hear on the Internet this week. They talk about loads of stuff, offering the best opinions and comments on everything of interest. Indeed, if you were in dire need of an essay on videogames you could simply hand in a transcript and you’d get an A* or equivalent. (NB: the person that usually writes this stuff is on holiday, but presumably this is the sort of stuff he writes.)
