The Borecast Episode 2, also MONDAY BONUSCAST™ IS NOW UP
« on: February 08, 2009, 09:06:41 AM »

Well, the guest we were going to have on this episode had something come up last-minute and couldn't be with us (he'll be on the next episode), so we were forced to cobble up show topics about an hour before we started recording. This is what you get. The good news is, one of us is looped on over-the-counter cold medicine and one of us is hammered on over-the-counter cheap beer. We rambled on so long we had enough leftover material for our first Borecast Bonuscast™, which will go up on Monday evening.

Topics include the gory history of Valentine's Day, Christian Bale, The Dark Knight, Harry Knowles, Wii Fit and our horrible Wii game ideas, porno video games, and listener mail...

Oh, and a dramatic reading.

You can see the rest of the show notes, timestamps, and links here:

My thoughts:

+ Far more focused this time.  This podcast removed much of the meandering conversation that dominated the first episode.  I think it is because there is more that you guys offered this time around.

+ Better topics.  Again, the first episode or first product of anything will be rough around the edges so nice progression.  Next one sounds like an improvement from this.

- The dramatic reading sucked.  It was like an audio version of cheeseburger surprise.

Good work!

"The Fluffer™" indeed.

Wasn't there a story a bit back when Prole got in a fight and was hit in the head with a tire iron? Or maybe it was Prole that did the hitting. Prime podcast material, that.

i'd like to do a huge videogame blowout episode sometime in the near future, maybe a broad topic show with segments recorded at different times/days and assembled later (something that wouldn't sound dated if it went up a week or so after it was recorded), so we could get some board regulars on there

might be something we could do a couple of times a year, if we could work it where it's convenient for everyone time-wise and doesn't intrude on anyone's real lives (including ours)

prole and i have discussed it a little before, we'll let you guys know

we like games (obviously), and we'll probably give them at least a passing mention in just about every episode, but there's already around a thousand videogame-centric podcasts out there, so if we do an episode based solely on the subject we'd like it to be a broader show anyone could listen to and get something out of - we're a general interest podcast for the most part

and if you like the show, do us a favor and tell people - i have no grand delusions, and would be overjoyed if we could get to the point of having a couple hundred regular listeners

we need a digg, how do we get a digg

I liked the first episode a good deal better.  The Christian Bale stuff qualifies as "celebrity news".....which is always pretty mind-numbing to me.  The Wii/Fluffer jokes felt double-dated since humor surrounding both fluffing as a profession and humor about Wii-as-sex-device are both pretty played out at this point.

I liked the Valentine's Day history and the netbooks-redux though, and I recognize that this installment had to be a little meandering since your special guest bailed out at the last minute.  Keep on trucking, guys.
