Mellow Trancey Version

Yet another show is up at the usual spot, with us talking about the new Red Hat release, reviewing the Oscars, and listening to Jeff's cellphone calls. It's as crazy as usual.

Newton??

[Chris Johnson]

Hey, I grew up near Newton! At least in the vicinity of Boston. Cool!

You should take road trips up to Brattleboro, Vermont, to record your segments of the show at my studio :) here's what it's been doing lately

It'd be fun- think about it. We could compose weird music and make new sound effects. Each Geeks In Spacer could deploy in a different geographical location and track down their own recording studio operator! It could be east coast versus west coast full-on geekness mp3 madness! What could be more fun? :)

You can't fool us. 98% of you people are really men. Don't even try.

Love,

Lucy Longtime, Technobabe.

There's other female listeners out there, I'm sure. I'm actually a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman... does that count?

Sure it does. I guess. Maybe. (Who writes the rules on these things, anyways?) So that makes three of us female listeners. Any more around?

I think streaming video broadcasts are a great idea especially if you do the random object thing!

Just one camera pointing at some objects on the ground, each has a nametag. When you change topics move the objects around a bit.

A good bit to do each week would be to pick an object representing First Posters and destroy it in a new and creative way.

A few notes on Dragonball Z:

The original show's target audience was in the 12-14 year old male demographic. FUNimation's rape...er, English dub I mean, is what dumbs the show down to 8-year-old level.

It's well worth it to invest in some fansub tapes to see the show in its original form. A few advantages of the fansubbed episodes:

• Freezer is not an 80-year-old woman with emphysema
• Kuririn is actually a cool character!
• Muten Roshi actually is a dirty old man, and cops a feel whenever he can on any of the female characters
• none of that "the next dimension!" crap; people actually die in the original version
• Episode 125 (although this will be dubbed soon, Funi will probably screw it up) Chichi forces Son Gokuu and Piccolo to take driving lessons--hysterically funny!
• Well-written and well-placed background music, none of that idiotic meandering synth music that they put in the dub!

Obviously only a partial list, but if you want to see what you're missing in the dub, check out Chris Psaros' DBZ Uncensored!

Anyway, if you don't feel like waiting for some college kid in Nebraska to get around to mailing you some tapes, you can download episodes at Da Black Goku or at DALnet #dbzleech.
