No, seriously, there's a few minutes worth of show missing out of the middle there. Terribly sorry about that. ^_^;;

I'll make it up to you next week with something awesome.

No, IT is returning home for a long vacation, but with butter.

Congratulations, Carlos, you now owe me a slurpee. And not one of those tiny-ass free slurpee day slurpees, either.

I've been waiting for SO LONG for this. Yes, longer than anybody else. No, I don't know how that's possible.

It has been too long since I have heard the voice of Chad Concelmo. Wow, sounds creepy, but it's true!

Actually, it's the same mic I've always used, it just sounds better because I'm the one hosting the call. Skype is a fickle bitch.

I started giggling like crazy When I heard Chad's voice, if people were home, they would send me to the loony bin.

I got embarrassingly excited as the usual sound clip started. Then it reached the climax annnnd WHO IS THIS HOST THIS IS NOT DYSON :<

Also, Topher sounds unusually clear this podcast. Like, crystal clear. Which is fine, since it sounds like he's talking into my ear from behind me. Everyone needs to sound this clear all of the time so I can close my eyes and pretend you're all in the room with me. :D

Anyways, proceeding to listen to the 'cast. I'm really glad the show's back.

Damnass timezones, can't listen now.

Or have enough space on my phone to listen to as I sleep, which...
Holy fuck I am making room for that RIGHT NOW.

Maybe I'll turn into chad, that'd be... AMAZING!

The skip thing. Reminds me of that one famous football game that like I think the Raiders played? and it was like an amazing play and it cut out to a different show while it happened..

Wow Colette, check out Spogs on metacritic. Two reviews, a 2, and a 1.9. Were you in the best mood ever or what?

Regarding the new games going 8 bit. Didn't they make a 2d half life 2? Not sure if it was 8bit, but it sure as hell wasn't whatever bit Half-life 2 is.

PhazonYoshi
5.17GB

That's every RFGO downloadable through iTunes, and it's all MINE.

5.17GB?! By your 100th episode, you'll almost be as draining as Crysis :D

Also, I got it on my phone.

Great show, guys!

And, umm, Chad... some of your ejaculate got in my pool. So if you could send some money for heavy duty pool cleaner that would be preferred... Seriously, my pool is now a gooey rainbow.

Chad made my week when he said my name was amazing, I actually jumped out of my chair.
Coletee, I should've guessed you wouldn't have wanted a remake of the original Zelda, I was going off on an interview with Eiji Aonuma, in it he mentioned the Phantom hourglass felt like a remake of Zelda.
Topher, Coke with a bit of grape? You sir are a genius!

I can get the Fap-Chorus, or something like it. My Grandmother sings.

If I can get it, I'll get it sent on Monday/Tuesday.
