BEST DAMN PODCAST EVER (mp3)

BDPE Episode 61 (MP3)

Tue, 9 Feb 2010 02:50:00 GMT

** MP3 Version - No Images or Links **

The iPad is officially out, but the BDPE crew is skeptical to give it a full endorsement. Except for Fic, who's paycheck is directly proportionate to the number of Apple products shipped per quarter.

Also on this week's show we continue to gush over Borderlands, Microsoft continues to for you buy your games over and over, and Martin Sheen commands you to play Mass Effect 2. And apparently, the clan is back - lock your doors.

"Best Damn Podcast Ever is excited about the development opportunities available on the iPad. Including where you may or may not be able to insert your penis"

**MP3 Version - No Images or Links **

iPad - "Our most advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price." - Apple

Magical? Revolutionary? Uh huh. Look at you. Thinkin' you all big now. Oh wait. It is basically just iPhone Grande...

On this week's show we discuss Apple's new tablet and it's ramifications for the gaming industry, even though technically it wasn't announced yet when we recorded this show. BDPE is just omniscient and knows about everything before it happens. You're almost out of milk.

Also on this week's show we talk releases, gush over gaming director Neill Blomkamp, go back to 2001 slash 1993 (looking at you Doom) with Serious Sam HD, and encourage Gordon Freeman to stop hanging out with Duke Nukem - he's a bad influence.

"Her number was 555-245-7864. You typed FUCK YOU BITCH"

BDPE Episode 59 (MP3)

Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:27:00 GMT

** MP3 Version - No Images or Links ** BDPE IS BACK! If I had a dollar every time I said that, I'd be making a living in a very unusual way. In all seriousness, because of travel and all that family bullshit, the holidays alway seem to be a difficult time for us to record shows. Thankfully the annual alcohol induced haze from Thanksgiving to New Years has past, and more heat is warming up them pipes. We talk about so much garbage this week I don't even want to list it all. EA, the NFL, DJ Hero, Activision, and the responsibilities of being a large publisher. We also discuss good games MW2 showed back into first quarter 2010, and give an overview of today's most influential titles in porn gaming. Also on this week's show we talk releases, micro-judgment Lego Indiana Jones 2, Dragon Age, Zelda Spirit Tracks, and Borderlands DLC. "I'm gonna sign an exclusivity deal of my dick to your mouth"

BDPE Episode 57 (MP3)

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:10:00 GMT

** MP3 Version without Album Art or Links ** Video games sure are a lot of fun. Shootin' guns, drivin' trucks, realtimin' strategies - there are so many ways to be entertained. But it's easy to forget the video games industry is a business. And not just a business - a multi-billion dollar, light my cuban cigar with a burning hundred dollar bill, global juggernaut of entertainment, business. Bobby Kotick, current CEO of Activision, is one of those cigar-smoking, scotch-swilling barons that is stifling the creativity of the industry. Not only that, he's making an ASSLOAD of that paper along the way. So this week we discuss the role of business vs. creativity in the gaming industry. Also on this week's show Miller EA tells Pandemic "It's not you, it's me", Modern Warfare 2 censored in Russia - Zangief upset, and triple A sequels sell like gangbusters while original IP's flounder (sorry Tim Schafer). We also review the new Xbox Live update with Facebook and Twitter, giving us something to do on Xbox Live besides waste money on avatars when we're drunk. "Every person in Russia is Zangief"

** MP3 Version without Album Art or Links ** I done told you, can't run from this pimpin' baby! Alright, so maybe we've gone a week without content, but we've got a brand new BDPE ready! Don't worry, I've been cookin' up some heat for you guys... So apparently, a little game called Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 came out this week. But you probably already knew that since the entire gaming industry is jerking off to it right now. Though this show was recorded a few days prior, we discuss some of the legacy and controversy surrounding it's launch. Also on this week's show Miller babbles about independent software development, we can finally stream tentacle rape on PS3, and Nine Inch Nails janks Halo: Reach. We also review DJ Hero, where you too can chop pops, and Borderlands, Diablo 2 + GUNZ = Perfect. "The plastic peripheral is just a dick that you suck" www.BigHotSho.com

On this week's show we catch up on all the latest news and pass judgement on Prince of Persia, Brutal Legend, and Batman: Arkham Asylum. We also wade through a few week's of emails and give you our favorite Halloween games. "All of you unsubscribe, you fucking assholes" www.BigHotSho.com

Pop Chopper - Queen Skank

Wed, 19 Aug 2009 22:09:00 GMT

So I'm not a huge fan of Fat Boy Slim or Queen. But they do have their moments, and what's better than bringing two great moments in music together? Free booze. And hot chicks. And money. Okay I guess there are a couple things better than this track. Not much though. FatBoy Slim's The Rockafeller Skank is one of those songs you can't help but jam to - even though it makes no sense. Is he saying "R-r-r-r-r-Russell Stovers. Russell Stovers" Or is that just because I think about cupcakes constantly? Queen's Don't Stop Me Now is easily the band's greatest track, with Freddy Mercury's insane vocals and bizarre lyrics providing the perfect backdrop to a kick-ass rock song. Also, one day I will be Flavor Flav. You mark my words. -BLAKEBUCK

BDPE Episode 52 (MP3)

Mon, 17 Aug 2009 22:42:00 GMT

**MP3 Version without Album Art or Links** You may have noticed we're running a bit behind here on BHS, but fear not! This isn't the beginning of a multi-month slump - I've been moving back to Mississippi this week. We should be getting back to our regular schedule in the next few days. On this week's BDPE we talk about how Squaresoft has given up on creativity, Brutal Legend owns Activision, Best Buy selling new games at used prices, and Scratch is now officially dead. Plus we review some summer XBLA games and try to figure out why celebrities drive sales in video games. If you have any feedback email us at feedback@bestdamnpodcastever.com or call the listener line at 845-BATTLE-9. You can also talk amongst yourselves in the forums. -BLAKEBUCK

Pop Chopper - I'd Like One Toke

Fri, 7 Aug 2009 21:23:00 GMT

Another week, another pop that has been chopped. Again, I'm all about blending the old favorite with the new hit. Brewer and Shipley's "One Toke Over the Line" is seminole 70's swing rock produced at the height of the experimental drug culture in America. On the other hand, T.I.'s "Whatever You Like" is about getting life's greatest excesses - cars, planes, and bling. Keeping in mind it is track six on his album "Paper Trail", and track five is "Live Your Life" (featuring Rihanna), which states at the beginning: "What you need to do is be thankful for the life that you got. You know what I'm sayin'. Stop lookin' at what you ain't got and start bein' thankful for what you do got." Ah, the double-sided coin of modern hip hop. Still, the mixture of excessive drug use and excessive material wealth seem to go well here. If you have any suggestions for next week's mashup, email me at feedback@bestdamnpodcastever.com

BDPE Episode 51 (MP3)

Thu, 6 Aug 2009 02:49:00 GMT

Just so we're all clear, my face does not look like a brick in Mario. On this week's show we talk about smuggling pot in your MAME cabinet, playing with yourself in Guitar Hero 5, and recommend you all go pre-order T.I's new MMORPG. We also review the new Gears of War Dark Corners / All Fronts Map Packs, revisit Too Human (spoiler alert, it's still balls), and finally learn why black people like Scarface so much. Any feedback can be emailed here, or preferably call our listener line at 845-BATTLE-9, and post any thoughts in the forum. -BLAKEBUCK

Pop Chopper - Don't Trust Love

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 19:38:00 GMT

This week's mashup combines a new favorite of mine with an old classic. Not only does 3OH!3's "Don't Trust Me" have some pretty slammin' beats, it also degrades women AND Helen Keller. Everything a growing boy needs. Haddaway's "What is Love" is decidedly one of the most awesome 90's club jams, spawning forth and even more amazing sketch series and film (which just so happens to be patterned after my life). So grab some headphones and get ready to get your masochistic swerve on. -BLAKEBUCK

BDPE Episode 50 (MP3)

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 10:47:00 GMT

MP3 Version without Album Art or Links 50 Episodes? Good god, it's time for a celebration! Everyone break out your favorite gaming accessories! On this week's show we recap you on all the news from Comic-Con 2009 (believe us, it's a lot of news), a fair and unbiased review of too human, (it's balls), and learn that both Oak-town gets it right (and Chi-town gets it right). We also discuss trannies, bestiality, and how EA likes to remind us that women are still objects. Take that women's lib - wave to them beneath our glass floor. If you have any feedback for us just send us at feedback@bestdamnpodcastever.com, call us at 845-BATTLE-9 (preferred method), or leave some heat in the forums. -BLAKEBUCK

BDPE Episode 49 (MP3)

Wed, 22 Jul 2009 15:11:00 GMT

Welcome to mid-July! Where the game industry goes to die a slow empty death. Kind of like a nursing home - we've had enough of your Vietnam stories grim-grim. So the releases are slim, the news is slow, the battle contestant sucked, and I'm still unemployed. But fear not! BDPE has got you covered, with at last a full crew this week! We recount some of our favorite classic games you may want to revisit during these slower summer months, give you some good janks on how to wisely spend those recession dollars, and tell you the things to avoid (good god why did I buy Too Human? I knew that shit would suck and I bought it anyway!). As always, if you'd like to donate hit up our little button below. Post any feedback in the forums, and sign up for next week's battle. -BLAKEBUCK

Pop Chopper - ULTRA MIX

Thu, 9 Jul 2009 16:59:00 GMT

Alright, so it's been a few months since my last DJ post, and I bet you kids are thinking, "Whatever happened to Trust Hustlers?" Well I moved to Baltimore and I'm minus two hustlers, so I figured now would be a good time to invent a new brand. Introducing... Now with 48% more nudity! This demo track is nearly 10 minutes in length and mixes over 80 artists from across 5 decades of pop music. It's got classic rock, hip hop, techno, motown, and of course, obligatory 90's dance. What kind of set would this be without Space Jam? I've set up a website over at PopChopper.com that has some more details as well as contact info, in case you want live in the Baltimore area and want to spice up your party. Since BDPE is all about games, I figure most of you sexually crippled nerds probably aren't huge fans of pop music. You prefer the finer things, like chiptunes and the theme song to Gundam Wing. Well fear not! I recently stumbled upon a nice set of SNES music I'll be mashing up for you next week, so keep an eye out. If you have any suggestions or request for SNES Pop Chop, post 'em in the forums here. -BLAKEBUCK

BDPE Episode 48

Wed, 8 Jul 2009 02:29:00 GMT

BDPE is back bitches! After a lengthy hiatus involving a move to Baltimore, audio editor drama, and a lengthy desert spirit journey, we bring you episode 48 of the Best Damn Podcast Ever. On this week's show we talk about some stories that fell through the cracks of E3 and discuss the rise and fall of eastern game development. Hop in the forums and tell us what you think. And don't forget to sign up for Battle... -BLAKEBUCK

Saturday Show - 2/29/09

Tue, 21 Apr 2009 20:13:00 GMT

When you live as hard as BLAKEBUCK does, you'll end up with a few tales at the end of the day. This new, experimental podcast is an outlet for me to share these tales in a more freeform show. The premise is simple. Saturday night, sit down with some friends, booze, fire up the mics, and see what happens. On this show I talk to two friends of mine, Sherry and Emily about living in Oxford, a culture of alcohol, and why so many people have a bad case of sad face. It gets off to a bit of an awkward start, but by the end we're having a ball. Let us know what you think by emailing us at feedback@bestdamnpodcastever.com Check out all the fun at BigHotSho.com

BDPE Episode 46

Mon, 9 Mar 2009 06:03:00 GMT

On this week's (ha) episode, Blake and Fic discuss the deeper meaning of tube gameplay, Fic crackles his mic around a bunch and I have to edit it out so you won't hear it unless I failed to do my job, Blake figures out how to play voicemails again, and I take a week to edit the show because I'm lazy. You'll laugh, you'll stop laughing and nod your head in agreement, and then you'll laugh again at this quad-annual BEST DAMN PODCAST EVER.

Or BIG HOT SHO. Whatever.

And yes, that's me singing at the end. Sorry.

BHS Extra - Papa John's Ad

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:05:00 GMT

I made this ad for Papa John's Pizza here in Oxford. The client asked for it to be ridiculous, and sound like a monster truck commercial. So, I decided since we wanted extreme, I'd go all the way. This ad is what I came up with. After hearing it, the Papa John's guy only had one comment: "AWESOME. It's perfect. Change nothing." It's been running 10 times a day for about a week now.

BHS Extra - Campaigner Mace Commercial

Tue, 17 Feb 2009 16:30:00 GMT

You're walking to class - the wind in your stride, a spring in your step. Birds chirp in the trees as bright sunshine beams down on your face. Today's quick bite at the student union is going to be great! "Hey! Have you voted today? You should vote for Steven. He's way better than Tyler!" "Uh, sorry, I've got to go" you mumble as you brush past this intruder. At least that's over with. "Vote for Sarah! She's the best, and definitely the cutest candidate. Way cuter than Conner. Vote for Sarah!" More voices join in now, and the controlled murmur of the crowd outside the union slowly turns into a roar. "Can't I just go eat some Chick-Fil-A?", you plead with these abominations of courtesy. "Shut up and do as you're told! We own you! You will worship lucifer now!", the crowd screams as they carry you off into the depths of hell... Okay so maybe that's not what actually happens on Associated Student Body Election day. But it sure feels like it. More info at BigHotSho.com

BHS Radio - 2/16/09: Perseus Predicts President

Mon, 16 Feb 2009 16:24:00 GMT

The war in Iraq. Global warming. Domestic chaos. That time they forgot my Caramel Apple Empanada at Taco Bell. All of these are problems that seem to have no real solution. Yet, is it possible that one being just might know the solution to it all? Of course, and he simply goes by the name... Perseus the Supercomputer. Today, we ask Perseus what he thinks about the ASB Elections, as well as learning about some of his new hobbies. I want to stress to you all that this is real. Certainly not a voice played off my laptop. Go to BigHotSho.com for more info.

Every day at lunch, we go through that day's CDs and unless they have a cool cover or interesting title, they get sent to our "Program Director" - which is a trash can with the word Program Director written on it. I would say we throw away 95% of all music we receive. But sometimes you find diamonds in the rough. Well today we present you one of those diamonds: a track by the name of BEER LEGGS by Terry and Burt. You can also download the unedited version of BEER LEGGS from the feed.
