We're still working out the details, but there should be a few special guests, some iFanboy swag, and hopefully, some good times. Join us after the taping for the after party at Stout (http://www.stoutnyc.com/)!

[fred]

I'm going to try to make the Sept. 28th event.

[acomicbookgirl]

I so want to be in New York in September!

[fred]

just to clarify - it's the Jim Hanley's in Manhattan rather than Staten Island right?

[conorkilpatrick]

just to clarify - it's the Jim Hanley's in Manhattan rather than Staten Island right?

Absolutely.

[paper]

Whose couch am I sleeping on?

[kahunablair]

Whose couch am I sleeping on?

I've heard there are a lot of spots to sleep in Central Park.

[fred]

Absolutely.

Figured that, but didn't want to book a hotel room miles from where i'm going.
thanks

[fred]

Whose couch am I sleeping on?

You are always welcome to sleep on my couch. Unfortunately, my couch is probably further away than yours is in this particular instance. If you ever need to see inbreds or anything though, I'm your guy.

[paper]

Thanks, Fred.

Somebody should take a video camera to this event. If this wasn't the month from hell I'd totally go. Arg!

[cormano]

It's actually kind of good news that the video show is going to Saturdays. Geekscape, TRS, Diggnation and iFanboy (almost all of the video podcasts I watch) all seemed to come out real close together Tuesday/Wednesday.

[esophagus]

Thanks, Fred.

Somebody should take a video camera to this event. If this wasn't the month from hell I'd totally go. Arg!Agreed. I'm sad enough to miss out on the swag. This should be a live, video, pick of the week.

[mikegraham6]

sounds like it'll be a blast, can't wait for the video show of this one.
had this been two years down the road, i would DEFINITELY be there!:D

[jgg0610]

Figured that, but didn't want to book a hotel room miles from where i'm going.
thanks
You should check out this place (http://www.wolcott.com/). It's two blocks away on 31st and 5th. It's in easy walking distance of Hanley's. Much to my wife's later chagrin, this is where we stayed while there on vacation this summer.

thanks. nice.

[jgg0610]

thanks. nice.
Glad to help.

[s-sanchez]

I'm definitely not missing this one, what time will the 100th episode thing be going down?

[paper]

Show of hands. Who's going?

[fred]

I'm in. I have a babysitter. I have the day off from work. I think I have a hotel chosen.

[s-sanchez]

I'm so mad at myself for missing ny con that theres no way i'll miss this

[paper]

Just putting this out there. If you guys want to do episode 125 or 150 on my roof...I will bake something. Rice crispy treats. I'll even run the extension cords.

[kahunablair]

I'll make cupcakes!

I'll even run the extension cords.
All the way from NY?

[paper]

From the roof to my bedroom probably.

[kahunablair]

From the roof to my bedroom probably.

Wait, I'm confused. You're bedroom is in NY?? ;)

[s-sanchez]

I'd supply the keg.

Hand to god.

Um, I don't know how to tell you this but you don't need to bake rice crispy treats...

[esophagus]

Just putting this out there. If you guys want to do episode 125 or 150 on my roof...I will bake something. Rice crispy treats. I'll even run the extension cords.If tit was around 150 I'd be all over it. But my passport is being a tool, and will probably take around that long.

[jimski]

What would it take to lure you guys to St. Louis? On the minus side, we haven't had an honest-to-goodness, Star-Trek-actor-attracting convention here in ten years. On the plus side, we... have... had some relatively mild winters.

[paper]

Um, I don't know how to tell you this but you don't need to bake rice crispy treats...

But...I'd go that extra mile. ;)

[piscespaul]

Looks like I'm going

You'd be surprised, it wouldn't take much - for some odd reason, I love St. Louis and would love to go back there...

[bigyanks]

im gonna so be there. the one bar that looks cool is the one with all the baseball memorabilia. i think they even do karaoke there.

[kwok_talk]

You'd be surprised, it wouldn't take much - for some odd reason, I love St. Louis and would love to go back there...

We have BBQ too..:)

[paper]

*raises hand*

[fred]

are you really going?

[paper]

Yessir. I'm gonna hop a train in the afternoon and then head back out on the last train back to Philly. Or Trenton. We're still ironing out the details. I have a friend who will probably tag along. It would suck to be on the train all by my lonesome, so that's good. According to Conor, the night's festivities are all taking place on one stretch, so it sounds too easy to pass up.

[fred]

that's awesome. I booked my hotel 2 days ago. The wife and I will be there as well.

[paper]

Just announced: Fred and Paper to spar in exhibition boxing match before the recording. Wildcat style!

Who else is going? C'mon, Canadians! It's just one plunge down the Falls!

Who else is on the east coast? Blair! No excuses, man. You're goin'!

[esophagus]

Who else is going? C'mon, Canadians! It's just one plunge down the Falls!
So if I drove two hours away I could wait in line and have my passport shipped to me within two weeks. But then they opened a passport office in my city. So I decided that would be less hassle. So I applied at which point they told me "Oh, well this is just an application office, we ship that out to Toronto now" "Why not Calgary?" "I don't know. Because." "So what do I have to wait, three weeks?" "Three to four months". This threw off my summer vacation plans, and now my plans to attend iFanboy. Eff you lady form the passport (application) office with no personality, and apparently sensability.

As soon as I smell blood it's over. I go feral.

[paper]

I'm looking at the tentative shipping list for the 26th. Good lineup of books for the discussion on episode 100 (new JLA, Spirit, Criminal, Iron Fist, USM, GA Year One).

[acomicbookgirl]

I so want to go... Damn it why did it have to be the weekend before I go on vacation..

[jaflanagan]

Cuz your vacation is on the weekend of the 101st podcast?

[acomicbookgirl]

i need that weekend to pack and what not...

[kahunablair]

Who else is on the east coast? Blair! No excuses, man. You're goin'!

Haha, Wish I could. That's the last weekend of the month and I can't take off.

That being said, I have been known to hop up to NY for no reason, pull an all nighter and head into work the next day. So we'll be seeing.

[fred]

It's always going to be the last weekend of the month, or the night before Christmas, or something. You must seize the day.

[kwok_talk]

I just saw the Comic Book Club cameo pictures on the Flickr page. My first thought was, “Wow, you all sure dress really well.” Conor, the green sweater ensemble works really well. Sorry, that was kind of weird.

[ronxo]

Not weird at all - Conor was the best dressed of us all last night - even I was blown away - and I need a haircut


and YES - Seize the day if you can ACBG and Kahuna!!! How cool/fun would that be?

[jaflanagan]

Not weird at all - Conor was the best dressed of us all last night - even I was blown away - and I need a haircut

Whatever...

[kwok_talk]

Whatever...

Don't get too jealous. I thought your shoes look fun!

[kahunablair]

Whatever...

I'm sure you looked lovely as well Josh!

Guys come on.. you know he's sensitive!!

[jaflanagan]

I'm going to wear a tuxedo to the 100th show.

[conorkilpatrick]

I'm going to be naked.

[esophagus]

Me too. Watching from my couch.

[labor_days]

Thread has gone someplace weird and disturbing as of page 6. Just saying...

[jaflanagan]

Alright, fine. I'm now going to wear a dickie and a bow tie. Only.

[fred]

It's going to be really funny when I actually show up naked.

[kwok_talk]

It's going to be really funny when I actually show up naked.

It would be even more fitting if you came with Michael Turner’s Power Girl covering your man bits. ;)

[fred]

I'll be right back - I need to get to a photocopier.

[acomicbookgirl]

It would be even more fitting if you came with Michael Turner’s Power Girl covering your man bits. ;)

This made me think of fred doing a photoshop job on the cover of the latest Vanity Fair... don't ask but it just did..

[fred]

cool. What kind of place is Stout? What's the appropriate attire? Polo shirt - yay or nay?

[jaflanagan]

It's just an irish pub kinda place. Wear whatever you want.

[fred]

sweet

thanks

[paper]

Looks like a cool venue. Is it a party-party or are we just going to hang out there? I just ask because I was going to meet up with a NY friend there potentially and I didn't know if we'd be in a party room or whatever.

Just hanging out.

[paper]

Cool. Shrimp cocktails on the iFanboy tab!

Fred, please don't take "whatever you want" to mean flippers, suspenders, and neon green body paint.

[fred]

damn you for ruining my plans!

[jgg0610]

Now there's a photoshop idea waiting to happen.

[paper]

This is going to be a strange experience. I might have to put on my unplugged headphones and close my eyes during the recording.

[jaflanagan]

It'll be like the first time we did the shows in person and we just couldn't do it.

[six-gun]

It'll be like the first time we did the shows in person and we just couldn't do it.

I'm sooooo excited to listen to the show! Wish I could be there

[kwok_talk]

Is video of the appearance on the Comic Book Club going to see the light of day?

[conorkilpatrick]

Is video of the appearance on the Comic Book Club going to see the light of day?

It doesn't look like it. The only person filming was that lifecast reporter and she only published the post-show interview.

[kwok_talk]

It doesn't look like it. The only person filming was that lifecast reporter and she only published the post-show interview.

Bummer. Your fashion brilliance was wasted.

[fred]

In less than 24 hours, I shall be loosed upon the unsuspecting masses of New York City.

[paper]

If you guys decide to get me properly tanked, my NY friend just secured a new apartment in Astoria. So I don't have to detox on a train. Probably not staying over, but just in case.

My friend Andy is coming with. He used to read comics, but hasn't read single issues in years. Hopefully we can convince him to get back into it.

[s-sanchez]

I'll be there tonight, cant wait.

[fred]

I'm just about to leave here for tonight's festivities.

[conorkilpatrick]

I don't think I'm going to make it tonight. I've got laundry to do. I also heard a rumor Ron's not going to make it because he's got a lot of stuff built up on the DVR.

[paper]

The rumors are true. Me and Fred will be joining Josh as guest hosts of episode 100. S. Sanchez in Times Square with weather and traffic. :D

[esophagus]

Yes! I planned on watching this episode only with hopes that there would be traffic reports. Why else would I watch iFanboy?

[jadedhalo]

Headed down to the city now. See everyone there.

[fred]

I don't think I'm going to make it tonight. I've got laundry to do. I also heard a rumor Ron's not going to make it because he's got a lot of stuff built up on the DVR.

DAMN YOU


dust off his chair will ya? paper and I have a show to do.

I'm literally in the shadow of the Empire State Building at the moment. It's quite dim here.

[s-sanchez]

I got called into work tonight just as I was leaving the house.

I've never been so pissed in my whole life.

I'm still at work too, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

[paper]

Headed down to the city now. See everyone there.

Was that you buying Kingdom Come after the show?

[paper]

Why is nobody awaaaaaaake???!!!!!

[mrugly]

Why is nobody awaaaaaaake???!!!!!

Because not many people suffer from insomnia.

It was a really good show. I for some reason was experiencing a random episode of shyness and failed to meet any of the guys. Sucks for me. I did however use my coupon and got a bunch of great books.

Congrats and may the podcast go for 100 more episodes!

[jadedhalo]

Was that you buying Kingdom Come after the show?

Absolutely! Thanks for your help by the way.

[paper]

No problem. Knew you looked familiar.

[kahunablair]

Ok so, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much should I regret not being able to hop the train last night?

[jaflanagan]

I got called into work tonight just as I was leaving the house.

I've never been so pissed in my whole life.

I'm still at work too, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Very sorry to hear it Sanchez. If for no other reason than it sucks to have to go in to work on Friday night. I think I can pretty much guarantee we'll do it again at some point. So don't sweat I'd too much.

[paper]

Ah, Sanchez, that sucks. I don't know what you look like so I wasn't sure how to find you. I'm sorry you couldn't make it. But it looks like there will be more opportunities, so hopefully things will work out then.

Ok so, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much should I regret not being able to hop the train last night?

Honestly, I really wish you'd been there. I kept seeing people on the train I thought might be you. It was cool seeing the behind the scenes of the whole production, but the highlight for me was chatting with everybody.

Fred and I had a conversation before the show about having assigned seats with everyone's avatars on the chairs (lurkers in the rafters of course.) Then after the show we went to Stout, and our group ended up downstairs, and it was almost as if we had our own party room at that point. I had great conversations with each of the hosts. Ron's going to be my guide into the world of Brit Pop and Morrissey, Josh staged a miniature intervention where I was told to keep writing and not get caught up in the rat race (he had some very good advice about television writing), and then I talked with Conor and Fred about the difficulties we've encountered with podcasting.

I can't stress enough just how impressed I was with the whole operation, and also how friendly and generous the crew was. They made sure my two friends felt welcome, and as intimidating as it was to journey to NY on a Friday night to hang out with some people I'd never officially met before, the atmosphere was really comfortable. I felt as if I'd been talking to those guys for years. I'm hoping for some repeat visits.

If you weren't able to make it out to NY last night, redemption is still possible. At the very least, we have the NY con next spring. I expect to see more of you there!

Josh is the most intense drunk you're likely to meet. Extremely focused. He may have blinked twice. Which, incidentally, is the number of times we hugged it out. I was granted access to his iPhone earlier in the evening, and attempted to write "BOOBS" on the calculator application, but as the numbers aren't squared off it looked like this: 80085.

[jaflanagan]

Because not many people suffer from insomnia.

It was a really good show. I for some reason was experiencing a random episode of shyness and failed to meet any of the guys. Sucks for me. I did however use my coupon and got a bunch of great books.

Congrats and may the podcast go for 100 more episodes!

I've been there with the shyness as well, so don't worry about it too much. At the next thing we do, you'll have to make sure you say hi. Thanks a ton for coming out though!

[fred]

Why is nobody awaaaaaaake???!!!!!

when you posted this I was still wandering the city looking for a wendys. yes, I was that drunk.

[fred]

heh heh - ron used to have a ********* *******
still makes me laugh

[paper]

Dude, spoilers! Don't give that away. That was really funny.

[fred]

it's still funny. it could be in the title of the show and it wouldn't ruin it

[fred]

better?
(10)

[paper]

Yeah, that's actually a cool teaser for the show now. Haha.

Wait til you find out what Ron used to have, guys. It's sort of like a podcasting "What If" story.

[paper]

Also...I brought my camera withe the big zoom lens. Took one photo, realized my battery was dead. Just kept shutting off. As Fred told me, I am "the worst journalist ever." Truer words never said.

Knew I should have brought the video camera instead. Could have pulled stills from that.

[fred]

I forgot until just now that I said that. You may be a great journalist after all. nice. ;)

[jaflanagan]

Paper, did you sleep at all? Damn.

Also, I'd just like to point out that, while I can certainly understand why it seemed that way, I would like to take full responsibility for my wackiness. It wasn't so much the drink as it was the exhaustion. I really only had the one Guinness, and a leetle beet of the other. Nope, that's just tired excitable Flanagan for you. But I am that intense. Like Gary Oldman. And my lingering social anxiety turns into lots and lots of talking. There, now you know my dark shame.

I've said too much.

[kwok_talk]

Looks like it was an AWESOME time! Oh, if only the New Madrid fault would have an earthquake that would swallow everything to the east of the midwest so STL was closer to NY.

[six-gun]

Now Paper, I'm disappointed in you. Over at Flicker there's a picture of you sitting while a number of woman were forced to stand. Now I realize that there were other men sitting, but I expect more from you! Where's your chivalry man? :D :P

[jimski]

Oh, if only the New Madrid fault would have an earthquake that would swallow everything to the east of the midwest so STL was closer to NY. And I still wouldn't have been able to go!

[kahunablair]

Honestly, I really wish you'd been there. I kept seeing people on the train I thought might be you. It was cool seeing the behind the scenes of the whole production, but the highlight for me was chatting with everybody.
Well the best way to tell if it's me or not is to look at my "My name is Blair" badge. I wear it at all times. So if you see someone that looks like a hobbit with blonde hair, glasses, and a name badge that says "Blair". Then that's me.

I'll be there next time for sure, no matter where/when next time is.

I was granted access to his iPhone earlier in the evening, and attempted to write "BOOBS" on the calculator application, but as the numbers aren't squared off it looked like this: 80085.

Josh got an iPhone? Congrats sir.
I discovered the lack of BOOBS on the first day. Sadly HELLO is also impossible. The sadness is unbearable sometimes.

[mikegraham6]

those pics are great, i can't believe so many people made it! i really wish i could have headed down there... so is there a fuzzy typewriter cameo on the 100th episode then?? ;)

also was fred there? it kinda looks like he's in some of the pictures, but im not sure...

edit: how many people from the forums made it to the live taping??

[kahunablair]

also was fred there? it kinda looks like he's in some of the pictures, but im not sure...


Friends like the Loch Ness Monster of the podcast. People know of him, tell stories of him even, but when it comes time for photos, he's always out of focus or distorted.
In other words, yeah, Fred went.

[paper]

Paper, did you sleep at all? Damn.

We got back to my house around 3:30. Andy decided to crash on my couch. While he was looking around the shop he noticed that a lot of the books he kept reaching for were by a guy named "Alan Moore", so we watched the "Alan" episode of the video show. Probably fell asleep around quarter to 5. I woke up at 7, decided to see what was happening on the forums.

So, 2 hours.

Also, I'd just like to point out that, while I can certainly understand why it seemed that way, I would like to take full responsibility for my wackiness. It wasn't so much the drink as it was the exhaustion. I really only had the one Guinness, and a leetle beet of the other. Nope, that's just tired excitable Flanagan for you. .

Uh huh. :D

[paper]

... so is there a fuzzy typewriter cameo on the 100th episode then?? ;)



One way to find out. :D

[jaflanagan]

those pics are great, i can't believe so many people made it! i really wish i could have headed down there... so is there a fuzzy typewriter cameo on the 100th episode then?? ;)

also was fred there? it kinda looks like he's in some of the pictures, but im not sure...

edit: how many people from the forums made it to the live taping??

Fred's in the upper left of said photo. I believe there's a slightly different version over on the flickr page.

He's elusive, and just like on the forums, he was in the middle of a non-sequitor at the time of the photo. We're lucky to have captured him at all.

[fred]

I was there and I just got home a few minutes ago. It was a great time. I expect to be able to open my eyes again by tomorrow.

AND there's a chance that I will be releasing a special edition episode of Comics This Week inspired by some of the events last night. The wife is helping with voices and ideas. The concept is hysterical.

so it looks like the iFanboy 100th episode has become the crossover "megaevent" of podcasting! "World War Fanboy"? "iFanboy Crisis"?

[fred]

I can't tell you what I'm doing. It would ruin some stuff to talk about it this early. It's going to be about 5 minutes - not a big deal but hopefully very funny.

[paper]

Here's the one photo I was able to get:

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1162/1459959274_fd37c97333.jpg

[bigyanks]

lol, i wanna see pictures!!!

[esophagus]

All of these pictures make me reeeeally want to go to Jim Hanleys. The selection looks pretty intense.

[paper]

It really is staggering. So many books. Not only books that I hadn't seen in a shop before, but books that I'd never ever heard of. Lots of indie OGN's. I missed the "wall o' new books" from my lcs, but you could spend hours in Jim Hanley's discovering great books.

[esophagus]

I can tell. I've yet to see a single issue in any pictures, but I've probably seen more books than my LCS carries, issues included. And theres, what, ten pictures uploaded?

[bigyanks]

i think the best part was Josh asking if he could hug me, im happy to say we hugged it out!!!!

[paper]

I was telling Fred, my lcs could probably fit inside the back section of JHU where they keep the skin comics.

Haha, Josh was hugging it out all over the place.

[bigyanks]

i shop at JHU on a regular and its awesome there!! their selection is huge and great workers!! ok commercial over.

[labor_days]

Hey Bigyanks, why don't you post around here more often?

You always made me laugh on the old 'drome and 'scape forums. Come on bro. You're not doing anything else with your life.

[esophagus]

Also, I just noticed this, but is Vito the same Vito from Project Rooftop?

[fred]

I just recorded the cold open. By Monday morning, I'll either be regarded as a genius or banned for life - and not just from the forums but from america too.

[paper]

Oh, dear god. I have a couple ideas what you're up to. I'm so scared right now.

[bigyanks]

Hey Bigyanks, why don't you post around here more often?

You always made me laugh on the old 'drome and 'scape forums. Come on bro. You're not doing anything else with your life.

wow i have fans, lol. yeah its cuz i went to geekscape.net but yeah i promised ron i would stop lurking on the ifanboy forums. so you guys will def. see me post more!!!

[kahunablair]

I just recorded the cold open. By Monday morning, I'll either be regarded as a genius or banned for life - and not just from the forums but from america too.

You always still have Canada Fred. I here their Pirate money is doing well these days.

[bigyanks]

Also, I just noticed this, but is Vito the same Vito from Project Rooftop?

i just goggled searched that for you and yes they are one in the same.

[kahunablair]

To kind of bring it back on topic...
Who do you guys think traveled the farthest to be at the Event?

[fred]

I think I traveled between 350 and 375 miles round-trip.

[s-sanchez]

Ah, Sanchez, that sucks. I don't know what you look like so I wasn't sure how to find you. I'm sorry you couldn't make it. But it looks like there will be more opportunities, so hopefully things will work out then.



At a quick glance I could be Connors stunt double.

[leon55]

wow i have fans, lol. yeah its cuz i went to geekscape.net but yeah i promised ron i would stop lurking on the ifanboy forums. so you guys will def. see me post more!!!

Yeah stop lurking like that kid Leon on geekscape.net

[ronxo]

yeah Bigyanks and Leon! Boo lurking (oh the irony)

It's good to see you guys - thanks for coming again and for shaking off he lurking ;)

[leon55]

I have picture. http://www.flickr.com/photos/13735099@N03/

[leon55]

I will try to upload more soon

[esophagus]

So, this is probably the weirdest observation for me to pull from this, but I'm somewhat of a sneaker geek. Josh, what kind of shoes are you wearing? I love them.
