Blue Yonder - Mel Gibson and the Magic Marker Kilt – Episode 61

The boys navigate dangerous waters as the PSN outage has been upgraded from a tropical shit storm to a full fledged fecal hurricane.  It must be discussed!  Jim and A.Ron break it down from a personal, gamer, and professional level.  Also, watching a serial killer on a weekly basis has Jim pondering “what makes great TV?”  A.Ron urges his fellow geek to live by a few simple economic rules, we celebrate Skynet’s birth day, and close out the cast with a review of Poral 2 from our forum’s own Darth Paxis and some Batmania from Stafa’s corner.

Portal 2 Review by Darth Paxis

This was submitted to us by listener and forum fan, Darth Paxis.  It’s featured in the upcoming Episode 61 of Blue Yonder… When I confronted GlaDOS in the first Portal game, it was the end of the game, a final boss fight to give the story a solid conclusion. When I faced GlaDOS in Portal…

Blue Yonder - Cursed! – Episode 58

You ever feel like some days you just can’t do anything right?  You wake up, stub your toe on the bedframe, cut yourself shaving, get your dick and/or vag caught in the zipper, proclaim the 3DS as a revolutionary break through in gaming, and declare nuclear power the safest thing since foam rubber?  Yeah, we have days like that.  And we record them for posterity.

Blue Yonder - Salty Freedom – Episode 57

Here’ the deal, loyal listener.  I have no idea what this cast is about, cause I wasn’t a part of recording it.  I’m sure there will be reprisals from bagging on Jim last week, so no matter what cock-and-bull story they come up with, know this:  instead of casting, I was spending quality time with my progeny; introducing Star Wars to him for the first time.  Try holding that one against me.  Try it!  You can’t.  You can feel your black shriveled heart swelling 3x too big just thinking about it.

Blue Yonder - Quarantine – Episode 55

Jim has come down with yet another variation of Pax Pox, and the entire Bald Tower has been partitioned off by the CDC. And then… things kind of got out of hand. Something about generators running out of diesel, an irreversable self-destruct counter, and a high-impulse thermobaric fuel-air explosive consisting of a two-stage aerosol ignition… it’s all very technical, but the upshot is that Peter and I had to go old school and get the damn thing done via Skype.

Blue Yonder - Steve Jackson Interview – PAX East 2011

We’ve had a crazy weekend so far, and PAX isn’t even over! Join us for a bonus cast covering PAX East 2011, including a great interview of Steve Jackson, of Steve Jackson Games. Designer of GURPS, Munchkin, Zombie and Cthulu Dice, Steve was nice enough to give us about 30 minutes of his time to talk about game developing, table top gaming, and what great new products they’ve been working on, including a version of Munchkin with an Axe Cop theme. Hope you enjoy!
