"I Claim Shenanigans!" (Gearheads Podcast)

posted by Grymm

Sun Mar 23, 2008 at 01:28:01 PM EST

So, after chatting it up a bit yesterday in the early mornings with Papi, Sweety, and Circuitz, we've decided to aptly name our Podcast series "I Claim Shenanigans!" And another thing I wanted to say was I'm hoping we can get our first Episode done later today. Now, I'll be busy from 2pm-unknown, but in the Evening I KNOW I'll be available. Machete, Robbins, Sweety, post below and let me know if you can make it, and any other Gearheads that would like to join us.

Oh, and HAPPY EASTER GEARHEADS!

~#*UPDATE*#~

Ok guys, we got a time. The Podcast will be starting at 10pm CST - 11pm EST - 8pm PST. As for the Horsemen participating, they are as follows (not official):
-Josh (Grymm)
-Sweety
-Machete

I think we're just going to stick with a max of 4 people per Cast so there's not that much confusion. We will most likely add a fourth person, but I need to talk to the others to see what they want to do.

  She is for sure in the best place she can be right now. I found myself getting a disturbing call last night and ending up at the hospital as well. I really can't go into detail about it but it's been a very bad couple of days. I ask that all the Gearheads would keep my Wife in their thoughts and prayers please, thanks guys :)

Am i the only one having trouble downloading or streaming the podcast? I can't seem to get it working.
It was a lot of fun in the 3-5 minutes i talked to you guys over phone on it. So if i get a usb mic for PC will it stream live? What are the benefits besides clarity?

In addition to the 4th official cast member (none / 0)

maybe speak with a guest Gearhead every other week or so. Not sure how the interviews will work, besides the basics such as what they do, favorite titles, how long they've been a part of the crew. Most likely that section would appear between the main news discussions and the FFF discussion, so that the flow of opinion isn't broken and doesn't confuse anyone, and that it bridges the two sections quite smoothly.
