Oh hai!

Hello, there. I’ve taken quite a leave of absence. I was in a position with no real way to update this corner of the web for almost six months. I’m sure that anyone who did frequent this site has all but left for greener pastures. It’s nobody’s fault but my own. I neglected you. Well, I will neglect no longer. I’d like to continue to do some editorials throughout the week concerning anything in the geek milieu. The podcast is on hold for a bit.

Anyway, I should be completely revamping the site, including a name change, and would like to build a community over here. If anyone would like to contribute, send me a comment.

2 Guys 1 Podcast Episode 3: In Which Cesaria Gets Drunk

Our best podcast yet! This was the most fun to record thus far and had absolutely nothing to do with the alcohol I had imbibed before recording. We discuss the new of Montreal record, shit hole directors, our Top Five of the week, a little retro action on Sonic the Hedgehog’s bizarre franchise, and some love for Pixar. We also briefly mention the ambitions for future podcasts and the site.

As always, hit the Contact Us link in the upper right corner of the screen to send in some questions, comments, or concerns. We love getting mail and would love to answer your questions on the podcast. Thank you for listening. You give us a reason to do these!

Podcast 3 should be up today

Hey guys, podcast 3 should go live today. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather this week but we did do the recording last night so as soon as I can get around to editing it I will put it up for all to hear. We had a really good show this week and when I put it up I will let Cesaria tell you all about it. Thanks for the patience.

Gaming Day: Zombiebait

So I believe that Cesaria has set up a gaming day or is trying to set one up. I’m not sure what day I will be able to participate in this event or I may have my own day. We shall have to see on that later. As for now I will give out my friend codes for my Wii and the one game I will play online with that and the games and gamertags for the 360 and the PS3 that I play under.

2 Guys 1 Podcast Episode 2

In the second episode of 2 Guys 1 Podcast, Cesaria and Zombiebait discuss the brilliant cult film The Room, Top 5 Pterodactyl Sounds, the rocky history of the Starfox franchise, the duality of online vs. offline gaming, and a bit about The Nightmare Before Christmas. We did some updates to the quality of the podcast to spare your ears the torture that could have ensued. We will be taking emails for episode 3, set to go live next Tuesday.

We used a few snippets of remixed game music OCRemix. If you are from OCRemix and would like them removed, please contact me. Also, to the listeners, let me know how you like the songs mixed in. We are definitely open to creative criticism. Anything to make the show better. Thank you.

Site Updates

I’ve mentioned in the past that I’d like to start a game night with my readers. That’s still on the slate as of now. I currently only have two online capable systems, Wii and DS, and plan to upgrade to a 360 soon. I’ll have a seperate page up soon that details what games I have and their respective friend codes. I may also try to coax Zombiebait into taking part, considering he has every system known to man. As of now, Cesaria Game Night will debut next Thursday at 7:00 pm, game pending. Also, you can leave comments about what game you’d like to play. I really want to strive for community interaction.

Regarding the podcast, the traffic went up considerably and a few people downloaded it, which is actually more than I anticipated. I’d like to know what you think. The next one will be recorded Saturday night and put up either Sunday or Monday. We’ve now got two mics and a few songs we’ll be throwing in for good measure. If you have any questions you’d like us to answer on-air, send me an email at azeke799@yahoo.com or just leave a comment.

of Montreal-Skeletal Lamping Review

These ass holes did it again. They managed to follow up the masterpiece Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? with a quirky, trippy hodgepodge of sexual freak funk you’re ever likely to hear. The record isn’t perfect. That much is true. But it’s damn near. Hit the jump for the full review.

Skeletal Lamping Review

Today/tomorrow I will be reviewing Skeletal Lamping, the new LP by one of my current favorite bands of Montreal. This is one of the albums I teased a few posts ago. I have not yet written the reviews to their entire back catalogue like I had intended, so those will be coming over the next few weeks, as the album doesn’t technically drop until October. This is absolutely my most anticipated album of the year, and I can’t wait to hear what new direction Kevin Barnes is taking the group. I will have you know that I’m keeping my hyperbole in check, just in case it turns out to be a mess. Although, I highly doubt it.

2 Guys 1 Podcast Episode 1

This is the inaugural podcast featuring two really awesome guys talking about shit no one cares about. In this episode we discuss the new Slipknot album, what we’ve been playing, casual vs. hardcore, our Top 5 Downloadable Games, and our retro section featuring Metroid. I appologize for the lack of audio quality. We’re new to this. So shut up. Bitches. I didn’t mean that.

Here’s the download link just in case you want to listen to us complain about Metroid while you’re on the subway watching old people make out with each other.

Podcast

So, Zombiebait and I actually got around to recording a podcast, dubbed 2 Guys 1 Podcast. Yeah! I know! I actually did something when I said I would! Anyway, I had a blast recording it, and would LOVE to do it every week, which is our goal. It’s, of course, not a high production podcast, but rather two nerds sitting around and discussing nerdy things. If that type of thing interests you, please listen to us every week. I hope you have as much fun listening as we did recording it. We tend to go off into tangents every once in awhile, but it’s all in good fun. We’re looking into beefing up the production in the coming weeks, as this is merely a trial run. If you listen, please provide constructive criticism or comments, as to improve the show altogether. It should go live tomorrow or Monday. Thank you.
