More podcastery
Not only am I a sekrit guest on an upcoming episode of the Thomyk podcast (although now I’ve put this here and Thom told everyone in the last episode my use of the misspelt word ’sekrit’ seems not only foolish and unnecessary, but also innaccurate) it seems that my mumbling about computer games over at GeekPlanet was successful enough to kick off an ongoing show.
So, once a month I will be talking for FAR TOO LONG with the lovely Matt Dillon about computer games and it’ll appear over on GeekPlanet as the newest podcast in their stable – One More Go. If any of you follow my delicious.com stream, this is the reason why I’ve been tagging things with OMG. It’s not a sudden jump towards either religion or valley girl-dom.
The plan is to talk about current games a bit, but to also have a go at the games that beat us in our respective youths. We were (and, to be honest, are) a bit rubbish at gaming so we have a good number of those knocking around to choose from. I’m recording next weekend, so episode 1 (numbered from 0) will be out sometime the week after, and this month I have mostly been trying to play Elite and The Hobbit on the BBC Micro.
Anyways, we did a pilot a few weeks back and the first ep is up for your aural pleasure. Luckily Matt edited it down a bit, as I went a bit strange about 45 minutes in, with 2 weeks of being woken up every night by a dodgy data vendor and a silver bullet martini catching up with me at the same time. I’ve not listened all the way through, but Matt’s seemingly removed most of my most surreal musings, although he might have left my alleged obsession with Batman’s bottom in. I’m not obsessed, just interested. The next one will be better, but for now, OMG #0:
