Had some issues with Thay's audio this episode, thus leading to a several week delay in getting the show out. Fortunately, Thay seems to have disappeared, so we haven't recorded anything new either.

Speaking of which, has anyone seen Thay recently? I haven't seen him in a while. If you bump into him online, tell him we need to record.

Some random news, including Blizzcon. Some talk of games - Wasteland, Path of Exile, Hearthstone. And a bunch of new recording and editing issues this week. Ack.

Enjoy this thing! Lots of crappy computer issues, so you get to hear Christy house music, dead air, and other exciting mishaps in audio. Oh, and it's 3 hours long too.

Sorry for the late upload this week - I'd like to lay all the blame on Thay, but he only added to the delay by a day or two. It's all doom and gloom this week, with Microsoft buying Skype, PSN, Blizz subs dropping, and the questionable release of Brink. Enjoy!

After a majer hiatus, we're back with another rambling episode. Without Interenet for the last few weeks, Thay has been on a game playing bonanza. Just nothing that requires connectivity.
