Listen to me talking about videogames on the radio

A week or two ago, I was a phone-in guest on the WNYC/NPR talk show, The Takeaway. The segment went on for about three minutes long, it was early, last minute, and I actually fucking said "Nintendo Wii." It's called "Wii," not "Nintendo Wii." I know that. God damn it.

Anyhow, the segment is now up online. Take a listen, and feel free to tell me if I sound like a douche.

Nicely done, dude! Though you may have wanted to mention that you were being sarcastic about Doom — you know, for the Jack Thompson-esque people out there looking for a sound byte.

I said I played Doom with my son for 40 hours at a time. I don't know how much more clear I could have been in terms of sarcasm. :D

Wow, 45 hours straight of Doom? You're pretty hardcore. Good interview-ish thing.

And I'd have to agree with the rest of the posts, that you didn't out-douche the hosts, but you were still pretty douchey.
