Tonight’s show is all about video game addiction…is it real? Does it matter? Who does it effect? What games put you at risk? Why does O smell of rotten apples? These questions and more are answered tonight!!! We even take some calls. Again, one of my favorite episodes tonight, so I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Check out one of our caller’s stuff! Brad did this!

  3. Shaymus22

    FERRRRRRRRRRT!

    RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

  4. Flamov

    lol that clip you played of that Australian… he plays so much, but yet he has crappy Dungeon Set 1 gear… >.> No one understands he’s not addicted… he’s just a n00b

  5. Ben

    the past two episodes have been so awesome..the format change wasn’t necessary, but definitely welcome. scott should make a point to mix up the format every 6 months or so, so the show stays vital and fresh (not that it isn’t anyway :P )

  6. Flamov

    Cold Turkey = John Lennon?

  7. maths exam on friday

    Saw that episode of Today Tonight / Current Affair when it was on. Was hilarious. Considering how much he played, his gear was awful.

    You didn’t call the show, The Age of VCR’s.

    Good show guys =)

  8. Sebastiaan

    aaand.. nope still not corrected my name in his show notes template :) scott, get on the stick dude :)

  9. Rico

    Man – downloads of this and The Instance going very slow for me this morning…….

  10. Rico

    Downloads of this and the new Instance show seem to be going very slowly for me this morning… :(

  11. jiteo

    OK, the “It burns when I pee” intros aren’t funny. They weren’t on the show for a god while, what are they doing back?

  12. Flamov

    Oh boo hoo jiteo; stop being so sensitive.

  13. jiteo

    Go squat on a cactus you, I’m allowed expressing my opinion.

  14. Flamov

    I never said you were not allowed, it’s just some people are just too sensitive – the show can’t always be just perfect for you, so live with it.

  15. jiteo

    But what if Scott reads this and goes “Dayum, he’s right, that intro is dumb!” Win!

  16. Darth_yoda (UK)

    You guys wanted to know why it is called ‘going cold turkey’. I looked it up in ‘The Brewers Dictionary of phrase & Fable’ and this is what it says:

    A way of curing drug addiction by abruptly discontinuing all doses or supplies. The allusion is to the unpleasant after-effects, which usually include COLDSWEAT and ‘goose flesh’, like the skin of an uncooked turkey. There is also an implied contrast with the warm cooked turkey, with its pleasant taste and smell.

    So there you have it, wonder no more why its called ‘going cold turkey’!

  17. Scott

    I have not used that intro for more than 45 shows…nearly a year. Is it THAT big of a deal that I used it for old time’s sake?

  18. jiteo

    Argh. This is why I hate arguing on the Intertubes. I just said it’s dumb, can we leave it at that?

  19. Flamov

    Just you… it’s all “Me, me, me” with people like you

  20. jjt

    shut up peeps

  21. Scott

    all i can picture is hundreds of yellow marshmellow easter candies being silent. ;)

  22. Shaymus22

    LOL nice… :D

  23. RaXha

    “marshmellow easter candies”

    What did i miss? :P

  24. Adam

    Crappy Movie of the Week? :(

  25. Felix

    THE AGE OF VCR !!!! :D

  26. Gene

    OMG! Tasha Yar died?! First Starbuck now Tasha! Whats the world of sci-fi spoilers coming to?!

  27. gooble

    Why are people still talking about Children of Men? That movie was crap. It looked good but was empty in the middle. It is easily on my top ten list of most overhyped movies that fail to deliver, along with V for Vendetta.

  28. Spoon Master

    I got on the show!

    I was mentioned on the show!

    totally made my day

  29. LucaStefan

    I’m a dick— I’m addicted to you!

  30. Rico

    One thing about these addiction stories I always think of is all you here about are the nut cases. WOW ruined my life. I quit my job to play DOOM, etc. Blah, blah, blah. There are millions of people that play these games casually, when they have a bit of spare time for entertainment. You never hear from those people because they are not addicted freaks. I need to create a new web site called: MMO’s did NOT ruin my life! ;)

    testing – testing…

  33. Noodle

    I had to pause the podcast when Scott impersonated the popsicle guy :D

  34. Scott

    Gooble…LOL! Vendetta was ripping awesome too…probably my favorite movie of last year. You just have different taste I guess. That’s ok.

  35. Rico

    Randy got some Star Trek cred from me for this show. Oh, and isn’t it funny we only ever hear about the 2 or 3 freaks that ruin their lives over a video game in the news. While the millions of the rest of us still seem to manage jobs, school, friends, girls (or boys), eating, etc. and play some games without a problem.

  36. Kainti

    Hey, just recently listened to it.

    FOR THE LOVE OF SHIT, STOP PLAYING FUCKING MUSIC RANDOMLY AND LEAVING IT IN THE BACKGROUND.

    DAMN.
