How Bugzy Malone became the presenter of a hit podcast about Grand Theft Auto curiously

Bugzy Malone wasn’t going to be the presenter of the new hit BBC podcast retelling the story of how GTA became one of the most popular gaming franchise in history. Writer Ciaran Tracey was thinking of using a twitch streamer, comedian or prominent gamer to host the series until he came across one of Bugzy’s most popular songs called San Andreas Mentality.

In the song, Malone regales about his past life of crime and imprisonment that wasn’t too dissimilar to the storylines and missions on GTA San Andreas which he played as youth. “He did that in 2014, so he did not just get on this train yesterday, he’s been loving this game for a long time.," says the writer and producer of Bugzy Malone's Grandest Game, Ciaran Tracey.

However, much like every gamer who presses start on the record breaking franchise, he was pulled into a world of drugs, crime, music and iconic characters. “I was quite sceptical at the start because I thought, I don’t know the first thing about this game. I’ve literally never played it in my life," Ciaran says.

While the developers have always changed the names of the cities in-game, Ciaran says there's a universal message to be grasped from their decision to always put their characters in an urban environment - akin to Manchester - and the circumstances that come with it.
