I thought that this show was one of the best shows they had in a while. I love it when the show doesn't feel scripted, like they planned it out. I like it when it feels like they just go with the flow, things seem much more relaxed, and because of that they seem like they are alot funnier. They can tell stories and jokes in between talking about games. Great jobs guys
aww come on man now we gotta know. Did she insult yaddle too?

LCfiner said:"And what do you think of this, Anthony?"
nice way to finally break the joke for those who may have still thought it was real
The more I listen to that original Anthony monologue, the more i can hear his voice cracking at the script. :lol :lol
If it wasn't for the primordial midget line, you may have lured a few more people
When you hear skip laughing in the background as soon as chuff starts talking about the hot female race, you know its gotta be full of shit.

Shawn seems like a big fan of hip hop, did ou go to Rock the Bells in MV?
Xrenity said:Haha, awesome start :lol
I actually believed it was real there.
And Shawn's such an ass for letting everyone eat that candy and barely taking any himself
I thought it was pretty funny they said they were trying to go for the Macho Man/Hulk split, as that was the exact vibe I was getting. A WWF style bro-opera. That means Jeff Green = Vince McMahon, right?
Absolutely loved this weeks brodeo. The Anthony bit was fantastic. Even though I pretty much knew it was a joke from that start I couldn't help but laugh at the entire thing. The execution gets a A+ from me.
Also Jeff's brief voice of fury "That game sucked!" was amazing. :lol
GFW once again proves to be the nr.1 podcast on the net.

Or the fact that you could hear Anthony's voice stuttering and trying to hold back nervous laughter as he said the whole thing.
Plus this is the type of stuff Shawn and his buddies make fun of all the time and have now made famous. Easily hero of the web basics, and the primordial midget stuff was just a stone dead give away.
Awesome stuff, I was hoping they would have kept it going old school WWF style.
But I tell you the person who would have sold me on it if it had not been revealed for another couple of days was Jeff Green. He really sounded pissed and very genuine about the whole thing. He really started to sell it.

Yeah, I'm cursed with having grown up imitating California cool with a Texas drawl. Thanks Bill and Ted! Strangely, when I'm stoned, I sound like a college professor. That's where the PhD comes in.
Plus, Shawn, you totally are Spicoli.

I love Austin. It's a pretty different place now than it was when I went to college there (I actually grew up near Dallas in a place called Grand Prairie). A boom in tech pushed out a lot of old, cool places (they turned Sound Exchange records into a fucking Baja Fresh and in the process nearly tore down the famous Daniel Johnson mural on the side of the building). But it still has plenty of neat places, and you can't beat the people. Texans make everyone else in the world look like rude assholes. And I would imagine that Austin wouldn't be worlds away from Oregon, culturally or politically.

Thanks for the response, I have been trying to get a feel for what it's like and I didn't know anyone who had actually lived there. Plus with tech booming in Austin right now that would be a huge plus for me as I would be looking for tech jobs once I move there.

The best Brodeo this year, and a classic for the archives.
Very, very funny. Shawn's laugh is infectious.

Loved it, the jellybean dare was hilarious.
Oh man, THIS GAME SUCKED I think I made everyone around me jump.
I remember the brodeo going on about Civilization: Revolution a couple a weeks back I enjoyed the game they really did it well for the consoles. But ended up breaking out Beyond the Sword. :lol
I forget how good it is and how addictive it is too.

You know, this thing about episodic content is kinda cool. We see games like Sam & Max and HL2 get several episodes and stuff, but the thing is that there's like a year between the episodes (at least when it comes to the latter example) so I don't know if I really wanna call it "episodic content". Or maybe it is, but definitely not in the same way as TV-shows.
Either way; we've got games like Siren (which just came out) going for it almost head on, but doing one big thing wrong. They've got all those episodes and flashbacks and trailers for the upcoming episode -- but they released them all at the same fucking time. By doing that it's more like an ordinary full game and the purpose of episodic content gets lost, and the trailers/flashbacks are reduced to some unnecessary gimmicky thing.
What I'm trying to say, in a really clumsy way, is that it'll be cool when these kind of games are actually released like TV-episodes. Once or twice a week or something. Having the Lost/Heroes/The Wire/whatever kind of discussion but about a game, the upcoming plot twists (or game mechanics-twist?) and characters.
I don't know how this has anything to do with this thread per se, I just thought of that since I recently heard one of the GFW-podcasts discussing Lost.

I caught up with the Walking Dead. When does 52 come out? The series is phenomenal.

That was a brilliant end to the Yaddle saga, "Previously, on 1UP FM..." and the Anthony reveal were great, and people thinking Ryan Scott was fake cracked me up. The game talk was also very good; the balance of serious/informative shit and hilarity was great this show. A+ work, 10/10, two thumbs up, etc. etc.
You GFW guys are fucking up something serious...
The past few shows have been excellent. A little too excellent! I'm not quite sure how you're going to top them, but I can't wait to hear you try.
I was laughing so hard during the jellybean roulette that I was crying as I was driving through tropical storm force winds. Thanks for almost killing me!

I think I was a little too rude in my original post(s). I'm just trying to understand where your coming from. It's weird...I both like and dislike you at the same time. No other podcaster (to use a specific medium) causes such mixed emotions with me. Either they are good or just whatever. Anyway you got something different...and GFW's popularity accounts for that.
