Episode #17: Roxanne vs. Godwin’s Law

Feb 282011

Sith or Nazi?

Kathy’s back from being out of town and we celebrate by having Roxanne compare things to Nazis and spread baseless rumors about who’s picking up the tab at the fansite cantina event. Speaking of cantinas, we hope actual social spaces like cantinas will replace fake social spaces like the mailbox in our Community Buzz discussion.

Fact or Fiction: Can you pick out the confirmed fact from the tall tales? This week’s host challenge involves crew skills, class balance, and PAX East. Continue reading »

Episode #15: We Grill Emlaeh About SWTOR

Jan 272011

Darth Hater's emlaeh talks TOR

AUDIO QUALITY DISCLAIMER: We apologize that the sound quality is not up to our usual standards. In production we discovered a few issues, the worst being a hiss and echo effect. Carla did her best to fix it, but wasn’t able to in every case. These problems are much less noticeable if you listen through your computer speakers rather than headphones.

We snagged emlaeh, Executive Producer of Darth Hater, to join us for our podcast and we found out that emlaeh can go on and on about her hands-on gameplay experiences! It was great fun and we grill her on everything from the beginnings of Darth Hater to how it’s so much fun just to fight things in the game. Continue reading »
