Episode 007
by TheGrandPubaa on Nov.30, 2005, under Podcast
A few hours of Resident Evil 4, some more Arby’s, and a trip to pick up Josh got us ready for this week’s podcast. Perhaps not as good as last week’s episode, certainly humorous in it’s own right. Remember, we need the support: Buy something from our shop. We could really use it.

After a trip to Arby’s for some nourishment, we return to Dillon’s place to record quite possibly one of our best shows yet. If this episode is any indication, Video Game Theory has a bright future ahead.

Another week plagued by the lack of working iBook adaptors. Such is life. This is the first episode where Kara was actually able to make it. Hopefully she will become a regular on the show.

Another recording at Dillon’s place. This episode, we had all four hosts in the same room recording, as well as a special guest spectator, courtesy of Josh: Miss Sarah Linderman. Also, a couple of things I continually fail to mention on the show. First off, Video Game Theory is now syndicated on ToonRadio.net, with the show being rebroadcast at 11PM Eastern(10PM Central) on Thursday. Thanks go out to Meson at ToonRadio.net for hooking us up with syndication. The promo never got recorded, so we’ll have to postpone that until next week. My apologies. Also, I want to give a shout out to Paul Mendoza and Dan Mattia over at Game-Overdrive.com. You guys are a phenomenal asset to the show, and we all really appreciate your bandwidth and support. We probably couldn’t do the show without you. My apologies for failing to mention all this on the show. You guys rock, all of you guys rock. Video Game Theory loves you all.

No coffee shop this week, due to a blown power supply for the iBook. Dillon’s rather older PC is the vehical for this edition, and we can only hope for a speedy replacement for the iBook’s power supply.
