I didn't think this was that obscure. I made heaps of MP3 CDs full of video game music for my long drives to/from college. It was all both intuitive and easy for me - like the video shows you just copy the files on the disc and burn it.

QWERPline and Welcome to Nightvale. Both of them are comedy faux local radio broadcasts on completely different ends of the spectrum.

Tell your friends and family that you love them but you won't see them for a while

Could be fun, probably not something I'll play for more than a few days though

How high are you

The intro scene on mushroom planet was great

Nobody has ever underestimated the frugality of a college student

Maybe it was just family physically in the room? You could monitor the air composition with a video feed from elsewhere, even just a room over.

EDIT: Ok just read through the article:

Also the character in the comic may well be under 12
