7: Beepers, Boats, and Betrayal

7: Beepers, Boats, and Betrayal

With the Italians going to war with the Colombians — on our dime! Or at least our down payment — and rearranging the very topography of Liberty City, there's no time left to appreciate our 'GTA III' surroundings (including TPG’s favorite potholed-marked street in Little Italy). Do we have a Mafia future? Or is there a better, perhaps more Eastern gang on the other side of the river we should be turning our attention to? Hold on, we’re being paged… CHAPTERS: 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WART-HeHb04] - Intros 02:55 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WART-HeHb04&t=175s] - “The Getaway” 13:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WART-HeHb04&t=795s] - “Bomb Da Base, Act 1” 16:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WART-HeHb04&t=970s] - “Bomb Da Base, Act 2” 31:50 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WART-HeHb04&t=1910s] - “Last Requests” Hosts: Tim Goessling and Henning Fog Music: Steve Page Artwork: https://sarahashleen.com [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbHAxMUt2a3VVUHFyZTVpY1Vya2ZJTzVvbW9rd3xBQ3Jtc0tuSnRmczRvTm1fN0Q2cWNZaXdza3NrSW1jOUtMVEdnOVdfandnVGZFUnF0bHZadHBiNUtOczAySWRiNFNOSUZRQjd0bkc2VU1CWkpRc0dWNmV6SENpOVYydU9MOWdSZndJTGtnbkFNVDNUWXJEYzhoOA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fsarahashleen.com%2F&v=WART-HeHb04] LINKS Instagram:   / everymissionpodcast   [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbkp1ZzBtdUFHZmVaQ3k3aU9TU3NIRlFETkF3Z3xBQ3Jtc0trQ19jOHctR1VnRFJNbDdfWnlCOElFVUFPWEpJWHVMb0oxWXFWM0JENkNZMWEyV2RFRE5DU3hmVjgwX0kxUUNSREVxZThjWjRkSzVlckEyb3ZmOVBZd2xzTmVKek5ZWUl6RENfOUROVFVCc0J6bXZKMA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Feverymissionpodcast%2F&v=WART-HeHb04] Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

6: The Blood-Soaked Streets of Liberty

Our mission-by-mission recap of 'Grand Theft Auto III' continues! TPG’s under the weather, or so he says, but that’s not stopping him or Henning from soaking the streets of Portland (Liberty City's realest burrough) in blood, then feeling bad about it. Also, our turncoat girlfriend Catalina’s back, something we have to supply the emotion for because our silent hero absolutely won’t. For him it’s just another Tuesday; for us it’s a clue that ‘GTA III’ is about to open up in a massive, SPANK- and mackerel-filled way.CHAPTERS: 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3My3JS81hn0] - Intros02:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3My3JS81hn0&t=168s] - “Cutting the Grass”15:35 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3My3JS81hn0&t=935s] - “Triads and Tribulations”28:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3My3JS81hn0&t=1700s] - “Blow Fish”Hosts: Tim Goessling and Henning FogMusic: Steve PageArtwork: https://sarahashleen.com [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqazZtQjUxX0N3dTJUZzhXdFRrSmcxdlMxQTk5d3xBQ3Jtc0ttWUVmdVNQUTQ4U0JUVjZaRndybXhPdU1NNGZ0RXhPaWhaX1VpODctOGRsTnZOeU13WEV2XzFDOTlNSXFmZktqc3c3QzlZbFQ5dlhVLUhJbDNpbWtCRkpuaGhkV0FSTERSVWRXWmRGcmdoS3NERXg1NA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fsarahashleen.com%2F&v=3My3JS81hn0] MORE LINKS!🌲: https://linktr.ee/everymissionpod [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbDBDQ1RpMnJKZEh5Tno0UHNiWVhUWnFkNmZSQXxBQ3Jtc0ttWm9OcVNILTE4aGxvc1lKemE2WVptNUdKT2hYMGNiRFV0TV9BazExdzluOUZ4WTBmSW45SXZRZW11Q094Y295RUlUNVpqakF2QS1pR09VN3hyNTJJYWQzd091RGJiTFR1Z3Zzc2dzQjNIY1dsZ241bw&q=https%3A%2F%2Flinktr.ee%2Feverymissionpod&v=3My3JS81hn0]✉️: everymissionpod@gmail.com#gta [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/gta] #gta3 [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/gta3] #gaming [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/gaming]

5: Mafia Avengers, Assemble

“I see nothing but good things for you, my boy,” the head of the Leone crime syndicate tells us like a proud, pixelated papa. And in the words of Gen-Z… *we felt that*. Even if the fetch missions won’t stop coming, to and from Chinatown alleys and mafia mansions and warehouse parties overflowing with SPANK. We may be currying favor with the don but we’re holding down R2 every step of the way.

4: Wes Anderson's New York

'The Sopranos', Wes Anderson, the Men in Black (fictional or otherwise), 'The Truman Show', and 'The Great Gatsby' all factor in today's free-wheeling discussion of Liberty City and its many inspirations, overt and otherwise.

3: 'GTA III' urges us to kill men we know nothing about for fun + profit

"This is a videogame and you can do whatever you want," says TPG. But, like, can you? We may have been set loose on 'GTA III''s first island, Portland, but the mission parameters are clear: do the bidding of men who'd prefer to keep their own hands clean while we dirty ours. Liberty comes with expectation. On today's episode, Henning and TPG talk: * architecting thoughtful missions that intersect with open world insanity * Tim's early exposure to 'The Great Train Robbery' * Henning drag-racing to Death Cab's 'Transatlanticism' * the inherent racism of naming a character "Chunky Lee Chong" CHAPTERS: 00:00 - Intros 04:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D7j4OIy3CY&t=245s] - "Farewell Chunky Lee Chong" 19:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D7j4OIy3CY&t=1186s] - "Van Heist" 30:25 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D7j4OIy3CY&t=1825s] - "Turismo" Hosts: Tim Goessling and Henning Fog Music: Steve Page Artwork: Sarah Ashleen Carolan
