@Jacob

Yep, the SFX are kinda tinny this week due to a workaround Tyler figured out. The plus - we don't sound like balls anymore. The minus - the SFX are weird, which we couldn't tell until it was over. Oh well, at least the hosts come through clear.

Don't worry though, as we'll continue to work out the kinks. We may have a permanent solution soon...

Thanks for answering my query! Screw sound quality, just so long as the content is as awesome as always.

Is Christopher not in the podcast this week? That has to be a first. He must be hanging out with his hippie friends on Haight street smokin the dank and forgot all about TR.

Liked the cast this week. Good to know the Talk Justice League can stand tall even without Antistaman.

This one takes some setting up, but I promise it's worth it. Traditionally, I have had anger issues regarding games...tons of broken controllers, a girlfriend hurt by an attached headset while I threw a wireless 360 controller...but a month ago was the worst.

My 360 RRoD'd, so to get over it, I got on my PS3 which 5 days later YLoD'd (Yellow Light of Death). It is out of warranty, and a 60GB to boot. I bought a $30 Dreamcast game and began playing my DC. In one week, the A/V outlet just gave out (second Dreamcast to have that happen) and so I was crushed.

On Chris's recommendation I bought GTA for DS, and got addicted, and two weeks later, I got angry at a failed mission and slammed the DS down on a table, thinking these things were traditionally indestructible Nintendo products, but I was wrong. With the bottom screen broken, I sat there, all my games broken, and with a little sob, I tore the DS in half. I then threw the pieces in the yard and sold all of my 360, PS3, PS2, and DC games, vowing to disavow gaming as a hobby. However, while listening to T-Dar (I'm not sucking up, I am being honest) I just had the realization that I can't give this hobby up, even if it is a financial nightmare.

The only problem now is that I have to start fresh, with only a working Game Boy, Genesis, and Gamecube to play. But don't worry, I'm still here, still a gamer.

Sorry for double-post, but if it wasn't obvious, that was my answer to the question of the week.
