Realistically, we should be working to not break the triumphant three-week streak that the Joystiq Podcast has enjoyed. We'll get to it, we promise. There have just been some technical glitches keeping us away. But there's no glitch powerful enough to slow the Podcast Rodeo, which we'll now proceed to demonstrating.

GFW Radio: Oh my, look who's back! It's the Whiskey Nerd with a triumphant return to the Rodeo with a nostalgic take on classic gaming as told through the last pure form of artistic expression: Haunting piano rap. There's also some nice (if slightly spoilery) bits about Half-Life 2: Episode 2.

Gamesweasel: You know what rules about this show? Length. Far too many podcasts play fast and loose with our time. With the Gamesweasel, 13 minutes and you're out. Also, the host is affable and the whole thing is slickly produced. Consider our attention held. Beginning their news segment with two-soccer related bits reminds us that this cast is definitely aimed at the UK set, but we think Americans will find more than a few things to like here.
