Podcast Rodeo for May 13: Mutinear

1UP Show: The show returns for the summer with a hot new theme song, Odin Sphere video, a preview of Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings and tons of stuff on Team Fortress 2, which still looks incredible.
Gamers With Jobs Conference Call: The old, old men of GWJ celebrate their 30th episode with special guest star Big Huge Games' Brian Reynolds talking about the making of Catan. Also, there's some interesting discussion of the debacle, if you've not yet grown tired of the topic.
GFW Radio: Whiskey Nerd gets a job as a guerilla marketer. Hilarity ensues. We know this is the third time on the Rodeo for GFW, but we're powerless to unseat it as long as Nerd is still the best part of our week. Oh, there's also some chatting with Bill Roper, so why are you complaining?
Inside Track: One man show Casey Ayers attempts to make the case that crappy third-party support is killing the Wii. He also describes the idea that hardcore gamers aren't playing the system as "utter malarkey," which positively scandalized the ladies at the soda shop.
Major Nelson: We get to hear the burn of all burns in this episode, and that's great. But you also get to hear Pac-Man champ Billy Mitchell use the phrase "absolutely, trap 'em, nail 'em and throw 'em in the river like I did everybody for all these years" with the icy intensity of a man twice his crazy. Ladies and gentlemen, with his second appearance on the Rodeo, I give you ... Billy Mitchell.
That's it for this week. As always, keep those podcast suggestions coming.

Video Game Jocks goes over the week's news while being pretty funny and very blue.

Yep, we discussed it last time and got made fun of by the Joystiq staff last time... they're RS2's. $495. You can get them cheaper if you know the dealer though.

They need to, like, figure out how to, like, talk without, like, saying like.
Seriously, learn how to speak and practice your diction so you don't sound like a 90s valley girl stereotype.

Me and a friend got pretty bad with like saying like all the time in like high school and stuff. So we made a deal, every time one of us said it we had to give the other person a dollar. But neither of us got better at all and we always broke even at the end of the day or week, so it wasn't really any motivation. So we decided that any time somebody says "like" they get kicked in the nuts. Neither of us said it through the rest of high school. We didn't even need an example, because we both knew we were serious business.

hey, maybe I'm biased, but it looks like the Game Rag has started an awesome podcast!

Two things
1 Penny Arcade have finally got their crap together and release a new podcast for each comic, although I'm not sure they would be the same sort of thing as these, but they are about games mostly.
2 What happened to the Joystiq Podcast? There hasnt been one for almost 2 weeks.

Heya, we just released episode #43 of NooBTooB and cover LOTRO and Infernal (very PC heavy week). There's also a fun super ghetto FX segment in the intro a minute into the video version -- let us know what you think :).
