As I did with TBTL #2525, where I created an image that was related to the episode number, I took inspiration from the episode number #2600 and wanted to create something that was based on the Atari 2600 gaming console. So, I recreated a version of the Atari 2600, but replaced the switch labels, cartridge and the Atari logo with some TBTL-related phrases. It was done in Adobe Illustrator and used some generated effects to simulate the wood grain and some of the texture on the original console’s plastic parts. I sent an e-mail to Luke and Andrew requesting it to be used as a show picture for #2600 and if they could play “Pac Man Fever” as the song to end the show with. Well, the latter didn’t happen; but, what did happen was even better.
Luke and Andrew: Mentioning the TBTL/Atari 2600 image created for the show, Luke saying that the request was to talk as a musical robot and doing so
At the very beginning of the show, the guys played a voicemail left by an unnamed listener singing her take of the “Samson and Deliliah” rap song that Andrew had been describing on the show. Also, there was a voicemail message left by the Stu-bot that was played towards the end of the show.
Listener: Singing a version of “Samson and Delilah” based on Andrew’s description of the original song
