Joystiq Podcast 049 - Ruined edition

By Justin McElroy
Ludwig returns from his self-imposed exile this week and decides to take the intro for his very own as a "welcome back" gift to himself. Then Chris ruins the show twice in like the first fifteen minutes, breaking his own personal record.

We've also got game news discussion, your emails and some of the first entries from the "Now You're A Songwriter" contest. Oh, and big ups to Wesley Johnson of the JPAG for the Photoshoppage.
