T-shirt status -still in progress, but coming soon.
Contest – In the mail and on their way to Troy. We have decided on the following rules:
- Send us an e-mail with the subject “Funny Book Contest”
- We will do 2 random drawings, and will mail them to the winners. Make sure you include your full name, age (over 18), and complete mailing address. If we draw your name and don’t have that info, we will go to the next name we draw.
- No current deadline set; we’ll announce it in the next episode.
Still I say, go check out Twilight Guardian while you can still get your hands on it! We’ve read it, and I’m really hoping it gets picked up because I want to see what her motivations are and just generally more about the character!

8 Comments on Episode 22 – News and Comments

Today we bring you a mish-mash episode of news recorded the Sunday before we did the interview and news recorded this weekend. In addition we had comments from both weeks as well.

We had planned on this being a featurecast, but there was just so much other content that we’re going to save the feature until next week!

In this episode we discuss:

City of Heroes 4 Year Anniversary address from Positron
Issue 12 open Beta
The 4 Year Anniversary Calendar with important dates (double XP weekends, etc)
City of Heroes staff at Summer trade shows
- Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) in Sdattle
- Comic-Con in San Diego
Many, many comments, an e-mail, and a voicemail from a celebrity guest (kind of)
SG Spotlight: The Knuckleheads. Both Hero AND Villain side SG on the Pinnacle server. A casual/fun group that enjoys some PLs and other advanced play.
Promo: Chasing The Bard (an amazing free audiobook)

Episode 17 – Take Three!

Apparently you can only attach 1 media file per post in the RSS2 feed, and since the Infected PDF was the second thing I attached it took over.. Just like Sigler, I tell ya!!

So, here is the actual podcast episode… again.. I tried once before and it didn’t seem to take. So I just renamed the file, and we’ll see what happens!

——————————

Episode is a bit late… but there was an injury involved, so please don’t debuff us 🙂
This episode is part one of a two part interview with a friend of ours dedicated to villains!

We discuss:

Viv’s on drugs
News [more complete show notes on actual news items to come]
Bab’s sig file link
New Gallery software on cohpodcast.com/ !
New Listener Forums !
Go buy Scott Sigler’s Infected on April 1st! Oh, and in case you don’t know if you’d like it, Scott is letting us attach a free PDF version to this episode!! That’s right, the ENTIRE Novel in no-DRM PDF form is in the feed. However, this is a “3 day only” deal, so I will be removing the PDF from the feed on April 1st.
New feedback phone number (the old one got disconnected because nobody called in 30 days 🙁

Sorry, time is up and I had to remove the file from the post and the server. You can still listen to the book for free on Scott’s site though! I just found out that the limited time was on Random House/Crown’s side — but we are allowed to mirror it indefinitely. So, I’ve put it back up 🙂
