The guys get formal and get geeky in this week’s episode. Up front is a lengthy discussion of gaming mice, as Jim breaks down every aspect of the oft-overlooked HID-Compliant device. Breaks it down into its constituent atoms. Breaks it down so it’ll never get back up.
A. Ron is back from the isle, soggy Game Informer in hand, to join Jim for the video game square down. What games have we been playing? What 2011 games are we excited for? What big games do we have no interest in? What does caffeine withdrawal feel like? Answer these questions and throw in a bit of funny and you have episode 40 of Blue Yonder.
The dynamic duo is back, with the audio quality better than ever. We talk about worst jobs ever, how content producers can compete with pirates (and ninjas), The Walking Dead, Wil Wheaton, Brent Spiner, and LeVar Burton forming the Holy Trinity of Twitter, our manlove for Scott Pilgrim, TSA’s new airport molesting program (opt in! opt in!), Carl Sagan’s COSMOS, evolution theory, and more!
Does a Droid suck down batteries? Do regional agreements blow? Why is the government have it in for gay marriage? Is Sony trying to pull off a plot from Superman 3? What console just celebrated it’s 25th anniversary? Does Jim have the worst taste in movies? Is Peter ever going to cast again? Explore the mysteries of life with your hosts on this week’s episode!
Short cast this week, but oh so good. We discuss Pandemic, CR232 batteries, revisit the console wars, CR232 batteries, wrist based gaming, meat based armor, CR232 batteries, pining for PAX, Steven Hawking’s sexual prowess, CR232 batteries, Riker’s beard vs A.Ron’s beard, Picard as a zombie, and how the ultra-rich prepare for a Zombie apocalypse.
Pack up your twinkies and start working on your cardio! Professor Jones is here to law down the law and present to you the sweet science of Zombie Apocalpytic Survival. Peter and A.Ron have his back as the gang discusses the finer points of safe houses, anti-dead weaponry, minimalist transportation, and more.
Here’s some extra stuff for our forum members only that we recorded after the zombie draft while previewing episode 8! We do it because we love you!
Some stuff we recorded that didn’t make the show but easily could have.
Jim and Peter have been going to LAN parties since the olden days. Over the years they’ve seen it all. And now they’re sharing it with you. What has happened to the LAN party over the years and what would make the ultimate LAN party?
Lucas announced at Celebration V that Star Wars will be released on Blu-Ray but the original trilogy will only be included as the 1997 special editions. This set Jim, Peter and A. Ron on tilt and they’re ready to vent, not only about the announcement but also about the ways we get screwed by the media companies on a regular basis.
