I've gotta say, this is one of the podcasts I wouldn't recommend to the uninitiated. I'm not clearly remembering all of it, but if I remember correctly, the inside joke quotient here is off the charts

I just listened to this one AFTER number 40 because I'm a crazy cat.

In honour of Chris' excitement at the imminent arrival of The Beatles to our virtual music playing video game habits, here's a relevant classic:

Oh, hey, this board exists, might as well chime in on this particular thread:

I love that they eschewed reading poignant reader mail in favor of listening to drunkards calling up a answering machine at four in the morning.

When I heard that "EYYY YA GODDAMN WIZARD" voicemail I was out running errands. I almost fell over in the middle of the grocery store laughing but was just barely able to contain myself. Probably the funniest thing I've heard in a long, long time. Fucking video games.

Oh, also, had no real fun with the Fuel demo.

LOL @ the "emotion engine".

"Thats what death sounds like to me."

That part cracked me up. So, Chris, that's just a sound your computer makes? Like the actual components inside? Ha!

It's hard to describe. It's definitely being generated by my sound card, and is not a physical noise being made inside the case. It comes through the speakers. I have no idea what process results in its existence though.

Sounds like a pachinko game. My dad had a pachinko game. He still does.

Oh man that's funny stuff. Jake definitely hates that sound.

My girlfriend's speakers sometimes pick up some weird frequencies and transmit faint, ghost-like communications. But nothing of the calibar that you're dealing with. I mean is the sound disproportionate to how high your volume is?

Let's be honest, it's probably Aliens. :yep:

Edit: On second thought, if it is aliens, it sounds like they're screaming in agony as they are being bloodily ground down to a pulp by some nightmarish alien-blender. And thusly Jake's horror! The question is, why did they choose to transmit to you, Chris Remo?
