Episode 1

Tasmanian Devil crazy straw
Topics:

  • What we learned last time
  • Professor Layton and the Curious Village (DS)
  • Other random DS bits
  • Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
  • Knight Rider
  • Lost
  • The death of HD-DVD
  • The perils of digital content distribution

Enjoy! We’re still smoothing out a few wrinkles in the production process, and would appreciate any feedback.

~Dave’s note~
Thanks for downloading! We forgot to mention the name of the podcast, forgot to give a shoutout to all the people who left lovely and helpful comments for episode 0, and probably didn’t fix many problems, but it’s almost twice as long…which has to count for something, right?

This is a test

This episode was more of a test than anything else, as Dave and I worked out some technical issues with recording a podcast. Very much a learning experience, and rough sounding at points, but we wanted to put it out there to make it look like we have some sort of back catalog :)

So, enjoy We Like Stuff episode zero:

In this show (with rough timestamp):

  • 1:30 - Introductions/ramblings (who are these weirdos?)
  • 3:15 - Why are we running a podcast, anyway? (an excellent question)
  • 5:37 - What kind of stuff will we talk about in future episodes? (as if we plan in advance)
  • 8:05 - Brief discussion of writing reviews Mad Libs style (and Mad Libs political speeches)
  • 10:00 - Discussion of my college radio show experience (it involved plungers)
  • 13:02 - Nintendo’s now-dead “Touching is Good” marketing campaign - ( http://www.touchingisgood.com/ )
  • 16:37 - The movie we can’t remember the name of is the Oscar-nominated Lars and the Real Girl ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0805564/ )
  • 17:45 - We blatantly try to annoy listeners (perhaps not the best opening episode strategy)
  • 19:02 - Concluding remarks (in which we apologize)

The intro/outro music is “I Feel Fantastic”, creative commons licensed by the amazing Jonathan Coulton. Buy his stuff.
