CE #29: Ron Gilbert & Chad Dawson

Double Fine graces the laboratory with more of it's excellent game
creators! This week we welcome the dubiously ubiquitous Ron
Gilbert, of Maniac Mansion and Monkey Island fame, and Chad Dawson,
lead programmer on The Cave and AI developer for over a decade.
Additionally, although Spencer was getting his face operated on
(thank god!), Eric Fullerton offered to fill in! In this episode,
we discuss the chick-magnet capabilities of classic computers, the
ever-present question of why anyone makes an MMO, and whether SCUMM
can leave a mark.
