Failcast Episode 7: Sexy Beach High School Edition
FAILCAST | 3:57 PM on 04.24.2008 31 comments




Alright, get this.

Some of you are familiar with the story of how Failcast came to be, and how it was basically all Wiisucks' fault that you're subjected to this on a weekly basis. Well. It turns out that Wiisucks has made his own podcast. Yes, that's right, you can now download his fail right here. I don't want to spoil much for you, but lets just say that he is clearly better at our profession then we are. Anyone who aspires to fail could learn from his advanced techniques.

Moving on to the reason you're probably here: we felt like releasing another installment of our attempts to fail. Despite some initial confusion, our host Yashoki gets the show on the road with regulars Charlie, King3vbo, and Necros, joined this week by the amazing Screaming Red Face. Um...I really don't have anything else to say about this episode except that it makes me feel like I'm in Japan.

And away we go!

Outline of Fail:
00:30 - Welcome to Failcast!
01:45 - King hates moonspeak
04:25 - The World Ends with You OMG!
06:30 - King's...a good guy...
10:35 - Hate is a strong word
12:15 - Hadouken. Haduken.
15:45 - Community feedback time!
18:35 - Thanks for that, Microsoft
21:10 - Wedge's scary fusion pic
24:25 - King works for The Man
28:30 - Hito dismisses Marvel vs. Capcom (and has a good reason)
33:50 - Kryptinite's guilty pleasure is buying collector's editions
38:20 - Messenger bags =/= man purse
39:00 - Pedro posts the GTA IV Special Edition cover
46:05 - Consumer whorism
50:20 - Seriously Charlie, that's as bad as Necros
55:10 - Everyone is more rational than Necros
56:00 - DryvBy discusses ads in gaming
59:55 - PAX: For all your throat-slitting needs
66:10 - PaperBowser0 is unsure where the next Golden Sun should go
68:30 - Clockwork is wrong about gamers becoming nerdy recently
74:00 - F Whipple reminisces about life-stealing
79:45 - We, sadly, bring up furries
81:05 - Being a douchebag is amazing
85:25 - Sibling talk time
87:20 - Conrad Zimmerman talks about video game cartoons
92:10 - Yashoki forces us into Podtoid-san's territory
95:45 - A very special outro

Music Credits:
OP: Five Iron Frenzy - Wizard Needs Food, Badly
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children OST
ED: NOFX - Always Hate Hippies

We're still looking for listener contributions in any form, especially audio questions on anything for our next preview episode (with a bit rate of 128 kbps and a sample rate of 44.100 kHz). So go send shit to Failcast@gmail.com now!
