Without Rob

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the gone-but-none-forgotten-oh-no-no-no dept.

With Rob out of town, we still managed to carry off a brand spankin' new episode where we talk about domain squatting, our gaming addictions, software patents, and more.

  1. I like GiS, but I miss Rob. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    I mean, did this episode seem less organized w/o his anal-retentiveness around?

  2. I couldn't handle it by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    I had to turn it off about two minutes into the show. Geeks in Space is terrible. ...and yes, I COULD do better.

    Radio is dead. Get on TV or buy some banner ads or don't expect people to listen to your crazy fundamentalist dogma.

  4. I want the post-opening music! by Luquid · · Score: 1

    Man, that music that plays during the first 3 minutes after the intro /really rocks/! Whoever engineered that is the true ruler of the universe!
    What was used to create that anyhow? I want an MP3!

    1. Re:Dear lord! by ahaning · · Score: 1

      I must agree. Some of the opening noises(music?) wouldn't be so annoying if they weren't played for so long. It kind of reminds me of Conan O'Brian's opening schpeal, it would be good if he didn't stand up there so long (he needs Andy to help him out. Too bad Andy will be leaving. :( ).

      Other than that, I'm really enjoying the shows. Thanks!

      Withdrawal before climax is very ineffective and those who try this are usually called "parents."
  7. That's not a knife! by red-ranger · · Score: 1

    *groans* Your Australian accents were sooo lame!

    Nate sounded like Ringo Starr narrating Thomas the Tank Engine...

    1. Re:Who are the 3 GiS fans? by Nerds · · Score: 1

      I must be the third, but I'm realatively new to GiS. I've been reading /. since about this time last year, but I just got into GiS last week. Downladed em all and listened to them over the course of two days. I'm recovering now, but I'm glad I finally started to listen. It makes it much easier to pretend I'm working if I listen to /. rather than read it (of course, I usually just end up doing both now...)

  9. Spoof Gore by Randseed · · Score: 1

    I suggest that you go ahead and interview Al Gore. Of course, he won't respond, so you'll have to do a parody interview. It could start out being reasonably plausible, then get gradually more wacko, like his stories about campaign finance scandals and his list of claimed accomplishments.

  10. KURT by greenlante3rn · · Score: 1

    Man Love the new episode, keep up the good work. Just one little complant I was already to finnaly spam kurt@thepope.org if you told me and I didn't hear you mention it anywhere. I must be told to spam him, tell me!!!
