Episode 53 (aka Season 2, Episode 1)

[viscountradu]

are we expecting an episode today or is there a delay due to the holiday weekend?

i am looking forward to footage of long lines for consoles.

[xxxthundercatxxx]

They've been coming out on Tuesdays or later for weeks now, no reason to expect it today.

[paulsaves]

I'm still not used to the switch to every tuesday. Every Mon. worked good for me, I'd have a shitty weekend, and the 'drome was a pick me up.. Oh the good ol' days...

[jonathanlondon]

The episode was on their server this morning and I know that our man at Rev3 has been working on it today to get it up so it might be late tonight/early tomorrow but they're definitely working on it.

It's a big episode too so the file size they had to compress and prepare was a lot to work through. I think you guys'll definitely dig it.

This is Geekdrome baby. We don't do no clip shows here. I worked on this thing through the holiday weekend and I hope you like it. You guys are my extended geek family! And I'm the biggest turkey here!

[paulsaves]

And I'm the biggest turkey here!

That just gave me a boner...

[daikun]

I'm still not used to the switch to every tuesday. Every Mon. worked good for me, I'd have a shitty weekend, and the 'drome was a pick me up.. Oh the good ol' days...

PixelPerfect has pretty much taken the Monday slot for the past several weeks now.

I'm guessing it's a schedule/bandwidth conflict or something. Maybe Rev3 can't upload so much at once...

[shmoo]

Man, Geekdrome really spoils us. I just wish Revision3 would do the same.

[satori]

yeah, I was a little bummed by the lack of Digg recently. I'm so glad the Geekdrome guys are so dedicated.

[sloppybunny]

I'm finding it interesting that Geekdrome fans get treated so well. In the sense it seems it's usually technical glitches that make the show occasionally late, not the creators.

So how do you guys do it?

Is it just plain old fun?

There's a little financial incentive?

Anything else that drives you guys?

Anyways I love the show, so keep it up :)

Fun. That's the only thing on the list that applies so far. $ would be nice one day but fun is a worthy reward too. Thank you.

[tuding]

Man keep up the good work guys! If only there was a ep every day :D Just ask kevin from diggnation for some money out of his $60 million!

[dicknixon]

I'm always excited about new Geekdrome episodes.

[soundwave2-0]

screw clip shows...if i wanna see something from an earlier show i will just watch that show. don't make me think i am getting new content and then let me down.

btw...vijay? where is cheat world? i want more of that too.

[divadawg9234]

btw...vijay? where is cheat world? i want more of that too.
seriously!! BTW, has Vijay ever even signed into the new forums? I don't recall ever seeing him here... he must be one busy guy!

[wookiewombat]

ive been re-watching the 2 Kevin Smith episodes to compensate for the lack of my Geekdrome, i love my weekly fix. I look foward to it everyweek. So thanks guys, i just want to let you know that your hard work does not go unappreciated.

From one fellow comic nerd to another, thanks.

[abacusand13south]

seriously!! BTW, has Vijay ever even signed into the new forums? I don't recall ever seeing him here... he must be one busy guy!

He actually signed on atleast once to ***** about his name not being capitalized.

[divadawg9234]

He actually signed on atleast once to ***** about his name not being capitalized.
oh yes, I do remember that...

[jonathanlondon]

oh yes, I do remember that...

He got a Wii... so he's gone forever. Too busy hacking new cheats into the system...

[divadawg9234]

ah well... is he always as quiet as he was when Casey and I were on the show and at the picnic? Literally, between the two times I've met him I think I heard him say 6 words... its easy to forget he's even around when he's there in person, you'd think he'd at least want to make himself known in the forums. Oh well... WE LOVE YOU VIJAY!!!!!!!!!

Vijay speaks through the power of his mind... and his cheats.

[divadawg9234]

Vijay speaks through the power of his mind... and his cheats.
I guess I'm just not in tune with the Vijay mind frequency...


If the new Geekdrome episode is out in 20 minutes I'll be a happy girl :)

[poltah]

It's amazing how a thread about an episode that's not even out yet are already on it's third page.

[muled]

Gotta Love Me.

That's just the way we roll.

that's why i changed my preferences to 40 posts per a page

[slowmtnsilhouette]

exactly...

[abacusand13south]

that's why i changed my preferences to 40 posts per a page

Yeah ive had mine set to 40 since the first day, it would be way too crazy with only 10 a page.

[jhelssen]

Yeah ive had mine set to 40 since the first day, it would be way too crazy with only 10 a page.

Bah, i am such a noob... *goes to change settings* ;)

[sinclairtyler]

that baby always creeped me out...

Me to. I had a nightmares after i saw th episode when it's head spun around.

[briangilmore]

Yeah ive had mine set to 40 since the first day, it would be way too crazy with only 10 a page.

shakespeare in love to my boy abacus. this is a nice 1 page thread, eh? yep :)...can i sticky this yet?...yeah what the hell.

[sevenduffs]

it's up.. (kinda) http://videos.revision3.com/geekdrome/0053/geekdrome--0053--2006-11-27--small.m4v


edit: actually.. no

[thefast]

I think that I'm in love with every single one of you guys. Though it's really hard to maintain this sort of relationship when you can't release your episodes on time. Please stop doing me in like this.

[lazyb0y]

theres nothing cool about this.

[hive]

This is Geekdrome baby. We don't do no clip shows here. I worked on this thing through the holiday weekend and I hope you like it. You guys are my extended geek family! And I'm the biggest turkey here!

Hell yeah!

[briangilmore]

So what should we stuff you full of ;) ?

[atomusk]

***keeps hitting F5 and starts singing***

geekdrome, geekdrome, gotta have the drome, geekdrome, geekdrome, i feel so alone without my GEEKDROME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

***goes into a sweet ass guitar solo, then breaks his air guitar over his monitor, pieces of glass cut me all over, i stumble around in pain and in rage, i trip over some of the wiring i have running across the floor, bang my head on the table, droping the tv on me, breaking my rips, im left laying on the floor unconscious, dreaming of what ep 53 would be like, i lay there happily untill the fire starts...***

[blues]

Gosh this is still not up yet?!!! Better be there in the after before I have classes, or else!!! Who am i kidding with the or else... i'll just sit here and pout...

[funnelfish]

ah well... is he always as quiet as he was when Casey and I were on the show and at the picnic?

Oh well... WE LOVE YOU VIJAY!!!!!!!!!

I found that when you get some chips, salsa and soda in him he gets alittle chatty. Just don't touch him. He is not to be touched! :D

[viscountradu]

so back to my original question of a holiday causing a delay... i am guessing "yes"?

[xxxthundercatxxx]

Jay Adelson is nuts to be putting everyone on the forums at risk like this. We all know that late releases make Jonny angry, and you wouldn't like Jonny when he gets angry...

[dicknixon]

Wednesday?

[jonathanlondon]

Jonny Hulk... I'm trying to fight it... the demon inside... it's coming out...

(someone post that picture of Jonny Hulk)

[tuding]

Thursdays?

[blargman]

Gosh this is still not up yet?!!! Better be there in the after before I have classes, or else!!! Who am i kidding with the or else... i'll just sit here and pout...

I think we're of the same mindset Blues, some ppl just freak out WAAAY to much when its a bit late :D

altho I am about to start smoking 3 packs a day now because of this delay!

help me!

[jonathanlondon]

I just got an e-mail from the new guy at Rev3 and part of his new job is overhauling EVERYTHING into a new infrastructure and set up with new encoding so everything happens smoother. We might have to move the releases to Tuesday to compensate for the 48 hours he's asked in advance to get the episodes prepped and up. Which means if D and I can get him the episodes Sunday it'll be up Tuesday and if it's late on our end it'll be late on theirs and that'll be our fault so we'll let you know when to hate on us. We shoot most episodes on Friday nights so getting them episodes by Saturday might be a stretch for us.

But Episode 53 is coming. Stop PMing people. We may have stopped Jonny Hulk for now... but he can always come back and turn his sights on you...

[briangilmore]

sounds like something finally got done and we finally got some real answers and replies. sounds good. well done, the drome. well done. :)

[originx]

How about taping on Friday and then releasing it on the next Friday?

Sure it f u c k s up your time sensitive jokes or fun stuff, but until you get your own server thing and start doing everything yourselves, you and us will have to put up with this chingaderas.

If you wanted you could post up outtakes on Youtube.

Huh? What? Huh? All three of those things are crazy.

Greeeeeaaaaat t-shirts though and your wife kicks ass!

[baldmonkey]

It can be downloaded right now if you have the super haxor skills of addition.

[jonathanlondon]

It's up, you bloodsucking freaks.

[sinclairtyler]

meltdown averted. life can return to normal.

[viscountradu]

It's up, you bloodsucking freaks.

w00t! (that enough characters for you?)

[poltah]

It's up, you bloodsucking freaks.

HIiiiiiissssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!

[tuding]

Yesssssss am so haaaaaaaaaaaapy :D

[slowmtnsilhouette]

yay for newness!

[bravestarr]

"turned out to be a bust."

hahahaha

subtle.

[bcool]

JLo's got the best step-mom ever - the real O-G. haha. that sophia bush thing was rad.

[viscountradu]

sex is like playing cards... you either need a good hand or a good partner.

awesome!

[sevenduffs]

People waiting in line in California cannot complain about the cold.

I waited for like 11 hours in front of a Toronto BB with wind. That's how we do.

[hive]

LOL watching Jon walk through Universal soaked

and for the record, the Wii and PS3 line segments still rocked. you're a soldier JLo, YOU'RE A SOLDIER! great ep all around definitely an awesome holiday episode

[shaolindrunkard]

That all I gotta say, awesome guest host.:)

[xxxthundercatxxx]

Loved the Wii line-up. My experience at Wal-Mart was pretty simular only there were less tranny hookers around. I also say we gather any available troops still left and we go **** up Hank and Cheese Gears of War style and take back this rock. Just let me beat the water dungeon in Zelda first.

Your step-mom was awesome on the show Jon and Graham fiddling with your balls was pretty hot. Laura looked hot at the end too, its too bad she was hiding behind Billy Ray Cyrus the whole time.

[viscountradu]

That all I gotta say, awesome guest host.:)


EDIT: nevermind... someone moved Shaolindrunkard's misplaced post

[gm_wil]

My new favorite episode...

[kevmann16]

Thanks for another episode, this one was really cool. It was a surprise not to see Dan T but it turned into a London Family Special which I might be wrong since I'm English not American but seemed like the perfect style for a Thankgiving episode and ended like a classic Holiday sitcom special.

The people in the Wii line seemed much more pumped for the system than the PS3 line, cant wait to get mine, I want to camp out in launch queue after this episode and with the UK launch on Dec 8th not far away I think I'll do it if I can justify the cost with Christmas coming up and my Snowboard trip to Canada on Jan 4th. Well just over a week to convince myself I need one, in the mean time playing my first ever final Fantasy game, FFIII for DS and its awesome!

[keyser-soze]

Wow, really great episode.

My experience with getting the Wii was quite a bit easier so I felt sorry for you there. I still had to wait in line but I was at Wal-Mart and they let us come inside and stay in the Christmas Tree Forest area of Lawn and Garden.

[fluxcapacitor]

These last couple episodes have been so effing good. I thought last week's was my new favorite episode but a new contender has emerged. I loved your step-mom and the stories she and your dad told about you. I wish Dan would have also been in the episode but it was awesome nevertheless.

[ofcgrl]

ah well... is he always as quiet as he was when Casey and I were on the show and at the picnic?

Vijay is the quiet artist. He lets his work speak for him. ;)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
JLO! I loved this episode! Thank you so much for the following:

Introducing us to your family (p.s. Your dad is kinda hot in that older gentleman kind of way), and your Stepmom was great! It was cute how she admitted you influenced her in so many ways.

The embarrassing stories about growing up. We all have them. I have some pictures from elementary school that I wish we had burned. And, alas, I too had a mullet at one time in history (THE SHAME!!!!!!!!).

The footage from the Wii line. Thank you for risking your life in Crack-Whore City (otherwise known as Hollyweird, oops, I mean Hollywood). I think I laughed the hardest during the bathroom scene and the closing montage with the music. You're making it very hard for me to resist buying the Wii. I was leaning toward the XBox 360, but I think I'm going to have to keep it real with the Wii.

And in closing, thanks for not coming out with a clip show. You're all we have (don't try to deny it people), and the effort is appreciated!! And as for the wait, all good things are worth waiting for. :)

BTW: Thank you Graham for keeping the inappropriate man-touching included in this episode. Wouldn't want to have a Geekdrome episode without it. It just wouldn't be the same!

[ali_pinto]

Jon's step mom = best guest host ever!

[lordstandley]

Mad props to your step mom, what a great host. I'm surprised she held her own so well. She had more geek flowing through her than I would have imagined.
Great episode.

[satori]

It was a slow start, but what a great ep. the line up stuff is historic... A copy of that stuff should be sent to the Smithsonian! Jon's step mom was really amazing. I think I enjoyed her insight on life most. Good stuff to hear.

Not sure what Jon's final comments were "Thanks for letting us go ya Brits!" What's that, what does that even mean?

Thanks for sharing. :)

[blargman]

Nice ep, you have a nice step-mom. Your dad I hope gave you a whoopin after the show for showing her those comics even after she told you she didn't like violence. :D

[dicknixon]

This is a really great episode - it's funny how both the episodes with one of the main hosts missing have been two of my favourites so far.

[baldmonkey]

So I guess you are hoping for a podcast hosted by alex albrecht and JLo's step-mother?

Anyway this episode was great.

[divadawg9234]

Jon's step mom = best guest host ever!

I agree... she needs to be ready for a Season 2 Dromie Award!! She is adorable and I love her :)In other news: that Ralph's on La Brea and Fountain has so many hookers and Trannys because it also has night security consisting of 1 rent-a-cop that not only talks to himself but also has arguments with produce and other products on the shelves... I'm not kidding at all, Mara and I have made many a late late night run only to feel more creeped out than safe and assured by him :)

[dicknixon]

So I guess you are hoping for a podcast hosted by alex albrecht and JLo's step-mother?

I'll stick with the regular Drome. For now.

[imagineer99]

"I took nap. Don't thing I got violated." *Classic*

[diela]

Stepmom was adorable.... calling a lawyer adorable seems weird, but there ya go. :p That's probably me in about 10 years when my daughter is doing her own podcast.

I enjoyed the episode... I kinda glossed over the comics segment, but the movies and videogame segments were great.

[tuding]

Amazing gaming segment! But i want more geekdrome!

And sex is so much better than violence ;)

[invaderzim]

hEY JOHN THE EPISODE WAS REALLY GREAT, YOUR step mom is so awesome you need to have her back on.. later honey.

[guybers]

J.Lo, I just finished episode 53 and I have to say, your step mother kicked ass. I almost forget about Danny T. until you two mentioned him incessantly. You should totally have her back, she will get my vote for best guest host at next years dromies. Aside from your fathers stellar taste in women, I loved the segment where you shared your embarrassing adolescent moments. I hope you know that we all had close to those exact same moments comin up. For example, I too know of the raw carnal glee to post on the adult bbs when you were a kid, it was like a techno version of "In the Name of the Rose". Only now the posioned pages of a sex book are replaced with the sheer terror of getting cought by your parents.

[mormonrage]

I'm pretty sure I have a crush on your stepmom now. She was fantastic.

[weedhappy]

Great episode, I love waiting in line for console films, very amusing.

the part I found the most amusing is an adult male afraid of prostitutes. ROFL

I'm sorry, I just find that hysterical. What's the deal with that, won't they take NO for an answer?

[point5o]

Stepmom was adorable.... calling a lawyer adorable seems weird, but there ya go.

Definitely weird calling a RL lawyer "adorable". Nice episode...The Quest for the Wii and PS3 line segments were epic.

[njshadow]

Jon played lots of Sonic. AWESOME. So did I. Best gaming character EVER! LOL

[dicknixon]

My first video gaming experience was playing Sonic on the Sega Megadrive/Genesis. I love Sonic games.

[soundwave2-0]

not bad for an episode.

as far as last episode ever......lame as f*ck

[jonathanlondon]

not bad for an episode.

I agree completely. So I'm not saying goodbye. E-mail me. I'm not good at thinking up names. Wait. I thought up the last one... So nevermind.

Just clear up some room on your ipod. You just might get a present soon.

[briangilmore]

he's not teasing. he always goes right for the cock. it's boring... :(... real men know foreplay jon! real men know foreplay!!! *runs away crying, covering up his wacky spot*

I always wanted to make one called Cock Smack. Where I talk about people hitting roosters.

[darksydeavenger]

I'd listen to / watch Cock Smack
