Sounds liberating when you put it that way.

It's all perspective my friend, and the attitude Jaso and I have had this entire time. We are quite comfortable with our careers and side projects. We love the BRN and are glad to be apart of it, but realize that it's likely fleeting until someone comes to their senses.

I don't hear TGR. Shenanigans afoot?

Do it. There's a lot of geek podcasts and stuff out there, but this is one of the few that's been able to hold my interest.

[NeTaS]

I'm listening to the last one on there site now

Walleh said there's been "schedule adjustments" so I guess it's nothing to be leery of yet.

Yeah so here is the break down on what happened Tuesday. IO's player can't handle variable bit rates. Some of our episodes are on that to reduce file size but preserve sound quality, but for some reason many players (itunes, RadioIo, etc) can't process it correctly. So *allegedly* the IO stream crashed because of it and they switched to their back up.

We had an option of playing a show today but I was unable to get anything together that would make sense last night cause I'm still recouping from the convention while editing the content ontop of my normal 9-7. Chaz had a back up anyways. So nothing fishy at least not yet.

Woodsy is on Tomorrow and Friday during the same slot. TGR will come back New Years Eve and New Years Day. Then it'll be back to your normally scheduled programming.

The NYE show will come out on the TGR site (Itunes/Stitcher/etc) Sunday 23. Going to try to do something exclusiv-ish for the NYD show.


As always, if you like anything we are doing (or hate it) I would love to see the feedback here or emailed to us (Page 1). If you want this shit as a regular thing then hit up the BTLS email.

I'll keep lurking here in the meantime

Will do. I also think Woodsy and Chaz did a hell of a job today. Anything live this time of year is appreciated.

Never did the tabletop thing, but I appreciate the work people put into the boards and statues and things. I even got a Magic start deck thing but my ADD kicked in and I never bothered to learn how to play.

My pants are off. Mechwarrior was LEGIT. Loved that. Played a lot of 40k too.
