I was really torn on just going with Sam as always, but then I thought that Peter Molyneux must have a ton of fascinating stories to tell that someone in marketing could really benefit from. And about acorns...

Richard, can you tell me who was the guy you called "Marcel" in this one? Because at the question who would be the best teacher, he didn't answer Sam Lake. So I think the real Marcel is somewhere in a an alien lab and this one was a synthetic. Be carefull Richard, they're everywhere. Nice episode! This was interesting. This remind me of the problem we have in France with video games students. Because all lot of people after graduating, leave the country to work else where. It looks like we have good teachers in schools, but the country failed to offer interesting jobs. It's at the point that the gouvernement is trying every year to make the country more and more appealing for game studios. So in the end, you don't need just a good school, but also good opportunities of work I think.
