Episode 224: October Xmas Decorations

This week, we are running an outtakes episode, part of it long conversations that were cut from previous episodes, while others are just bloopers.

In fact, the first thirty-five minutes or so of the outtakes is Jonah and Jordan discussing news items waiting for Paul to login that didn’t make the cut for the podcast. Other interesting bits is Jonah and Paul talking about pen and paper RPGs and how badly the 4th edition of Dungeons & Dragons stinks, and Paul and Jordan berating stores that put up their Christmas decorations a few months early.

Next week, we’ll have a regular podcast, but this week, enjoy the outtakes.

  1. :)) ha ha ha … they forgot to buy domains related to the names of their products …
    Quite funny though, I wonder what the site will be about.

    Jordan, regarding ratings, you should also check out http://www.tigrs.org

    Jonah, Dead Island sounds pretty nice. You should try your hand at writing reviews. But with less spoilers ๐Ÿ™‚

    ๐Ÿ˜› Jonah, PCs have something that consoles lack: flexibility.

    It’s fun to have an episode like that from now and then.

  2. haha, don’t worry Paul, I’d take Star Trek over Star Wars any day as well. Yes, even Enterprise ๐Ÿ˜›

    Unfortunately, that means you STILL aren’t getting any hate mail. You really need to try harder ^_^

  3. Hey guys,I was just listening to the podcast from July 3d and was pleasantly surprised to hear my own name being read up and subsequent comment..I had to rewind that just to see if I had heard right:P As to the 360/PC compability,I was mainly referring to most games coming to PC being console ports these days and thus having their native 360 gamepad controls intact with it..an example of this is FIFA 11 where me and my brother can use both of my 360 gamepads to play 2 player game..as for the WOW counterpoint..touche..but there are ways around that as well,namely Xpadder where you can plot the keys into Xbox/gamepad button counterparts so you can play WoW with it.
    However most of the PC games coming out now are console ports and does support especially the 360 pad in particular,what sparked my previous comment was when you were bringing up the conviviality of not having to sit in front of a 15 inch screen..i was just trying to make a counterpoint saying that you for the most part dont have to…sorry for the rant and thank you for including me into a great podcast:)

  4. Nice talk in the beginning. Wouldn’t mind hearing this type of show every couple of months. You guys managed to sell me on Dead Island as well. All in all a great show for just being outtakes.
