Omnibus Podcast Ep. 006: The Non-denominational Holiday Episode

In what might possibly be our best 6th episode yet, the gang helps you celebrate your holiday of choice by telling you what to think! Listen while Luke ineloquently lambastes Heroes and Cloverfield, while Adam shakes his head (one assumes) in disgust. Business as usual for the gang; Luke’s playing a JPRG (Persona 4, buy it now!), Adam’s reading comics and watching Coupling, while Denny prays at the altar of Tina Fey. Also: trailer time! Movie reviews are so lame; you’d rather here reviews of trailers, right? Right. Our main feature this episode was something that we had to do, lest the FBI swoop down from a helicopter, kick through our windows and steal our podcasting license. That’s right, it’s the Omnibus Podcast Best of 2008…ish! Listen as we try to remember what actually came out this past year with little to no fact checking or preparation! This is the first time we’ve made the show without being in the same room, so do ignore the lag, pauses, and other awkward quirks that may or may not plague this episode. Suspend your disbelief!

Omnibus Podcast Ep. 005: The New Hotness

The fabled Episode 005! Legends of its existence have been passed down by tribes of the indigenous for months! Finally, thanks probably to science, it’s available for everyone to listen to it! This. Show. Is. HUGE! After rolling for initiative, get ready to hear about what the gang’s been doing, including some talk about The Dark Knight, Hellboy II, and Generation Kill. Likely not in that order! And final Fantasy IV? It’s not the same game you’ve been playing for years! Mostly! And what’s the best kind of assassin? the disposable kind! The meat and potatoes of this show? Coverage of this year’s E3 and San Diego Comic-con! Just because we weren’t there doesn’t mean we aren’t totally qualified to talk about it! And peppered throughout: our almost-famous spontaneous top 5 lists! Come for the spontaneity, stay for the awkward pauses.

Omnibus Podcast Ep. 004: A Cast to the Past

Like a fine wine, this podcast has developed a deep, rich flavor by having sat on Luke’s hard drive for like two weeks. So, enjoy those 4th of July references! In this installment: The guys talk about how they’ve been living their lives (Spoilers: Shorts were soiled, mistakes were made). Later, we talk about Wanted, a comic book movie staring that woman with the formidable lips and the guy who did the voice over for march of the penguins. Anecdotal evidence suggest that it was a bit boring. Finally, we get into one of our patented philosophical discussions about the Batman. I don’t feel like typing any sort of synopsis; you’ll just have to listen in and find out!

Omnibus Podcast Ep. 003: That was a joke

In this unprecedented third episode, our heroes inflict topic whiplash on you, the viewer listener! We talk about Burn Notice (and Bruce Campbell’s chin), then discuss a bit about Japanese high school children committing faux suicide in Persona 3: FES, then swing into whatever crap Denny’s been doing. Find PREVIEWS a bit daunting? We help you out by ignoring almost everything and focusing on what has the coolest covers! Wait, that’s not right! Finally, we discuss The Incredible Hulk. Hold on, is it 2003 again? Seems not, but the Hulk is back with Edward Norton and Liv Tyler, and man, he sure does smash things. Spoiler: We enjoyed it.

Omnibus Podcast Ep. 002: Podcasts as Art

In this historic second episode, the guys discuss last week’s comic releases, including Kick-ass, Criminal #1 redux, and Rasl. Spoiler: they kicked ass. Also, Luke shows some DS love by trying to get you to buy Professor Layton and Apollo Justice. The first twenty minutes sounds a little rough, ’cause we had to piece it together from rescued temp file. But hang in there! For the main course, the guys discuss comics and games as an art form. Are games art? Spoiler: yes. Stay for the end, folks! To finish up the cast, Adam and Luke gang up on Denny, since he liked the Indiana Jones trailer and his opinion is wrong. Episode 2 is in the bag, and it almost doesn’t suck. Could 3 be far behind?
