Brilliant Gameologists

We’ve been running a poll on our boards to guess Meg’s baby daddy with interesting results.

Instead of just posting the answer, we decided to release the answer in .mp3 format.

So last night, after recording a normal episode, we pushed record and just let the mics catch what we came up with.  Warning- this is completely off the cuff and at times very innappropriate.  It was past midnight and we got loopy.

At one point we have a Survivor: Podcaster Edition and made up characters based on voices we felt like doing at the time- this is NOT commentary on any of the following people! It is meant to just be completely silly and ridiculous.

I kept editing light in this- I cut out our laughter and moved some things around to make it more interesting to listen to, but what you’ll hear is basically what we came up with on the spot.

Podcasters mentioned:

• TrapCast Jen and Sara
• Adam from the Podgecast
• Bearswarm Rob
• Sean from Narrative Control
• Robert Bohl from Independent Insurgency

But the real reason for this bonus clip is NOT to accidentally offend other podcasters, but to make a big announcement about the real Gameologists behind the mics.

Talk about the new addition to our crew here and the episode here.

Here’s the show, completely unedited and as heard by the 31 members in our chatroom!  Warning- we are all over the place and it won’t offend us if you don’t listen to it!  This is complete total bonus and has zero gaming advice.  We will do some of these periodically for those interested in our personalities, but know that if you tune in for gaming content, just skip these ones.
