Episode 42: Go Go Gadget Evolution!

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

This week the guys ramble (and I mean seriously ramble) about the possibilities of self-evolution through the addition of machines and upgrades. This isn’t your mother’s Six Million Dollar Man discussion!

It’s much, much worse.

Thanks again to Gottoon for the idea for the topic!

Listen, upgrade, and evolve!

Episode 37 – CommentMania!!!

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

This episode, Bob and Lejon read your comments from the website and respond.

It’s a little more laid back, less structured, and longer than most other episodes.  Maybe we’ll end up doing it more often in the future.

Bob: Flood by They Might Be Giants

Holiday Delays

Monday, February 15th, 2010

De la Juan Fondue, here.

This week is my go at editing the show, and on top of the week being somewhat busier than expected, there was a holiday involved as well. This is making the show late.

This is not an excuse, simply a statement of fact. We have an episode recorded, and it will be up soon, but it has been delayed:

In the mean time, take a look at this example of the best of Canada from the Olympics opening ceremonies:
