Yeah! - 02 - Craxy Taxy - All I want

This month on Yeah! Jonathan, Tanya, and Daniel discuss the landmark success of the game Crazy Taxi both in the arcades and on the Dreamcast and how the inclusion of music by a plucky punk rock band known as the Offspring would help cement the game's legacy as a major hit for Sega, long outliving the arcade and the console that spawned it. We also take wild divergences into talking about Seaman, Shenmue, MTV's Road Rules Season 5: The Northern Trail, 2024 Politics, and the Beatles.
