    We'd love to have you on this week, Justin, but make sure that you wont get in trouble at work for doing so first. We don't want to get you fired.

    That song ISN'T bad! I love Easy Breezy.

    I got a few chuckles but I did have a hard time figuring out who's who after a while. So many voices.
    Nice work guys.

    Edit - Also a little long. Still good but long. And somebody sounds like the fat kid with the curly hair on Superbad.

    Oh, I can come on no problem. I just want to be one of the guys instead of a "G4 Special Guest!!!1!111"

    Even though I believe I blend in with the rabble of the GAF community, I wouldn't mind being a part this one day. Don't worry, I'm not begging to be on it, I'm just throwing my name into the hat. I'm not even the most hardcore gamer, I just like reading about game topics and complaining. As long as you don't mind my drinking problems and obscenity-laced dialogue... feel free to send a message when you're out of much more deserved guests for the podcast.

    Either way, I look forward to more of these. Keep 'em coming.

    Also, we're going to have 4 people from now on, and that includes the guest.

    You, Chris and Larr? I guess we'll see how that sounds too. Sorry you sound like that guy. At least I know which one you are then.

    You guys do one another a service, when someone says something funny give him a pity laugh or something. Dead silence after a joke is so sad.

    The fabled podcast returns. And much rejoicing was in the land!

    I echo Justin's sentiments exactly. Some guys had better mics than others, and it was tough distinguishing everyone's individual voices at first. Glad to hear that the number of people will be reduced--speakers were occasionally cut off and I'm sure not everyone was able to share everything on their minds. The structure was a bit loose compared to previous podcasts; for example, the host would introduce a topic and give a brief overview, the podcasters would discuss the topic, then the host would introduce (or segue into) a new topic. However, everyone did a great job of keeping the dialogue going and sharing their thoughts. Very informative stuff, looking forward to the next one.

    As a 'Press Start' fan, I'd love to have Justin on the show.

    One suggestion--in previous podcasts, the guest didn't actually participate in the podcast until a special guest section introduced later in the podcast. The host would conduct a sort of semi-interview, and the guest could share a bit about him/herself. I liked that particular section because it shed light on the GAF community and provided an opportunity for members to learn more about their fellow GAFfers. I'm not suggesting that the guest should be prevented from participating in the discussion; I think jekku contributed some very interesting stuff. I just thought that section was well-executed and would be an excellent addition to future podcasts.

    And while we're on the subject, I guess I'll place my own bid for a podcast appearance. I'm not much of a gamer, nor do I know much about videogames in general...but I'm a huge VG music fan, and have a coupe midis up on VGMusic.com. I'll also play the race card as I'm Korean, although I'm horrible at StarCraft. I can also beatbox the Mario theme song.

    Well actually, we're not leaving Steven out completely. Larry and I are the new hosts; Every week I figure we could bring on one other staff member (IE Chris, Steven, or Rich) and then the "Guest" of the week. Keeps the lineup fresh each week and also keeps anyone from feeling left out :D

    I have a new mic now. So the choppiness from before should be gone.

    Glad to know everyone enjoyed it. I'd listen to it, but I lack patience to listen to a 41 minute anything, lol.

    I just listened to some of the recent podcast. It's pretty fierce, keep up the good work boys! This makes me excited for my new radio show coming up! =P

    Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates in this area as of late.

    The Podcast is on temporary hiatus for a liiiiiittle longer than expected, due to the flooding of my basement studio and the subsequent cleanup effort and lack of planning on my part with the podcast.

    Rest assured, when I find the time, I'll get everyone organized for our next episode, which may or may not be before the end of October!

    Same here, I could help since I have my own radio show too!

    Give us a few days to move our schedules around, if necessary. And start thinking up topics of discussion. Mega Man 9, TGC, E for All, Warhammer credits, etc.

    I miss podcasts. I was listening to a episode on my ipod the other day.

    Suddenly, I have a lot more free time on my hands. So...you know...

    That wouldn't have anything to do with the recent layoffs at G4TV, would it?

    I'd be happy to join in on the podcast, but that's not the priority.

    Did my topic ever get discussed in a podcast? I suggested that you should talk about whether or not gaming reviewers are too easy on games. Does any game ever really deserve an average score of 97 out of 100 like SMG and GTA IV received, especially when each of those games was obviously flawed in certain areas?

    In rare cases, yes, but on the whole, I must say "noooooo....."

    I read about that the other day, and that was my first question. Hope you're doing all right.

    It would.

    That's too bad, man. It seemed like you were having a good time on the boob tube.
  14.  
    Yeah, that was my first concern, too. I'm sorry that happened. Will they give you first priority if they started hiring again?
