For episode 3, we kick it up a notch. After a hearty dinner of chicken and vegetable stir-fry at Zane’s house (thanks Jodi), we sat down and whipped up a delicious dish of geek talk salad. Topics this week include the 2005 space shuttle Pinto, how a hottie British girl helped Alex (aka Cheeks) activate Windows XP, the Blind Fury of gaming, and an engaging discussion about videogames (or Tim’s old gamer rant). Your hosts this week are Tim, Zane and Ryan, with a small side of Alex. Be sure to ask your waitress about our delicious breadsticks.

For the second episode, we come to you from the living room of Tim (aka: blueBomber) during his geek BBQ. On top of the usual krew of Tim, Ryan and Zane, we also have special guests Garrett, Alex (aka: Cheeks), and Kurt. Topics range from the final thoughts on GTA: San Andreas, why the GeForce 7800gtx is a waste of money, capsule movie reviews by people that have no business doing them, the ongoing debate of pirates versus ninjas, and much much more.
