Where did you hear this? or that they're hiring for that matter.bengraven said:
I hope Chuf feels better soon. I recognize a kindred spirit and I'm prone to deep pessimism and self-loathing when things aren't going my way (2008 didn't go my way, job-wise: I was made redundant once, and quit the next job a couple of weeks before the company collapsed); but it always gets better, and the dude is young, talented, and belongs to a social and professional network to murder kittens for. Chin up, man!

wow, was not expecting that to happen
wonder if he'll still end up with Sony eventually?

Im not happy with my degree either. Im a year in but Im not changing as this is pretty much my 3rd attempt at doing something that interests me.
It shouldnt matter too much, employer these days look at a degree as a sign that you can commit to something and finish it, and have at least some intelligence.

Loved the podcast. If I'm ever laid off at work, I want Uncle Shane to give me words of wisdom.

No headsets. In both the podcasts so far, the headset mics are the ones that sound the worst. The name of the mics and stands picked up escape me, but they're pretty high quality, with swing arm stands to allow for multiple guests without the annoying sound of mics being handed off. We also picked up pop filters. They should be here in time for the next podcast.

Sir!
Whoever says the "Gallegos on..." segments are no good is full of lies and idiocy.

Just finished listening to Ep. 2. Audio quality was greatly improved. Another good podcast. Also good to see Rebel FM hangin' up near the top of the podcasts section on iTunes.
Best of luck to Shane in his new position at Ignition. Too bad we most likely won't be hearing from him regularly on podcasts any longer however........ Truly the end of an era.

This podcast helped me break into Final Fantasy III.
I thought I would never get around to it.

hah, I already graduated with a comp sci degree, but I was considering going back to school to get a poli sci degree :lol
just got to the end and there is a lot of requests for funds at the end. 12k not enough for podcasting?
money money money. I guess gotta ride the wave while its hot.
* contrast this with my post yesterday defending the guys. I've thought about this since last week. I liked 1upyours. The funds are going to 1upFM guys mostly. Not sure if I care for these personalities. I'd rather the money go to milke/shoe..etc
Once the guests spots stop coming, I might just stick to giantbomb and playerone.

here's some constructive criticism from someone who loved almost all of 1up's podcast output:
- if you're going to have phil, nick, and anthony as staples of the show----please have a fourth who is a bit more energetic! there's nothing wrong with nick, anthony, or phil...but you definitely need a louder, stronger voice to offset the rather laidback, apathetic sounding voices of those three. im not suggesting you guys are ACTUALLY apathetic people ... but from an aural standpoint, the cast needs more life. intellectually, you're all set.

Ignition/8-4 cast in one
listening to them crush on Mark demands another podcast with Mark and Shane (and John TV, etc.)

So I just watched the entire highway scene in Matrix Reloaded in VLC at 67% speed. I just have the DVD and the full screen one at that (I was naive back then) but I didn't see him anywhere... until the very end when Neo is flying away from the explosion carrying Morpheus and the key dude.
Actually, no, if he's in that scene he's in one of the cars driving by and the DVD isn't high enough res to see their faces clear enough.

This is the only time I'll address this: I think that it's understandable that people look at the donation thing with a critical eye. It's a fine line to walk, and I think we'll do fine at it. If I see valid criticism, then I will take it under advisement. After the OMGDONATIONSPLOSION last night, I felt like it warranted a response.

john tv said:Nice ep, guys. Way better than the first! One request: please, no more jokes about wanting money, jobs, donations, etc. etc. It's already very, very old.
Looking forward to the next episode!
Deal, but it should be clear that we do still want jobs. Also, never made any jokes about wanting donations and will not. Would rather not get into THAT stuff again.
Jax said:
We weren't "requesting" money -- I mentioned that there's a donate button on our site, as well as the sites of a couple other ex-1UP friends. I also noted that you guys have already given way way way more than we expected, so I didn't expect that to be read as "PLEASE GIVE US MORE OMG."
Also, if you'd rather be donating to Shoe, you should note the Donate button at the top of the Sore Thumbs blog. It's been there for a long while now:
http://sorethumbsblog.com/
It's not as bad as the This American Life podcast, which really does beg for money for 5 minutes at the beginning of each episode. For TAL or Rebel.fm, it's understandable as these things cost time and money to record, produce, and host. Then you get to enjoy it for an hour plus with no interruption.
so people should get the fuck over it because complaining about it makes you look like a serious ass.

I don't want to bash Shane, but how the fuck does he land a Director of Business Development position at any company? I could understand something in product development or acquisitions, but business director?
how does he land a director level gig?
Shawn Elliot is an AP at 2k Boston
Jeff Green is an AP at Maxis
Jeff could get a lobotomy and still be better then Shane at everything...
I just don't get it.

Technically, you pay for the Ricky Gervais podcast. Karl has more then once on those podcasts said he isn't doing this for free, he needs to make a living.
And yes, Karl is my "god"
such a funny man
