Mobcast Episode 002, MIA

By Greg Ford

Sunday, May 17, 2009

Here it is. Monday. Podcasting day. Mobcasting day. And while we taped a delightful episode, with G4's Patrick Klepek joining the gang of Shoe, Demian, Ford, Donahoe, and Robert "voice of God" Ashley, something happened. Maybe it was a bum fetzer valve, maybe an inadvertently ejected dilithium core, but by the time Robert made it back to his HQ, the file was gone, and no file-recovery utility could bring it back again. We all knew that one day there'd be an unexpected disaster and a "lost Mobcast," but we didn't know it'd be so soon. Mobcast #2, you never deserved this.

But next Monday is a new Monday -- tune in then when we bring on three more special guests to discuss five topics of our choosing, plus one of yours. To submit a topic you'd like us to yap about, shoot an e-mail to letters@bitmob.com with "Mobcast" in the subject line.

I read about this on Robert Ashley's twitter, very unfortunate.

Ugh :( Hopefully this is going to be a rare thing! Gods-damned technology.

Nothing like losing your files on your computer, especially after realizing you put in a certain amount of work and can never get it back. My sorrows go out to the bits that never were. See what I did there? PURE...... GENIUS!!!!!

So... What were the topics for this week any how?:(

That completely sucks. Probably would have been a good show but now we'll never know.

Please add it to the Zune Marketplace. (insert insults here)

That is not good! I cannot wait to hear Hoe again, and love everyone else here! I cannot wait!

Very unfortunate to hear this so early on in the game. These things happen though and I look forward to the next podcast.

So what were the topics discussed, and will any of them (those that proved more interesting) be revisited in later p-casts?

That's bush league. Come on Greg Ford, Step it up! Step it up! Step it up!

Out of the Game and the Mobcast both affected by Robert Ashley's computer equipment? That is one naughty computer! First episode was great. I will wait for the third!!!

Agree about the Zune marketplace. I'd listen to the podcast, but have no way to access it.

@Thomas: Haha. We will step it up! We're taping Episode 3 tonight for posting on Monday. Lesson learned form Ep. 2. Also, the show should now be on Zune Marketplace. As for the topics from the lost episode, they included such ideas as Duke Nukem, fanboys, gamertags, RE5 vs. L4D, unnecessary multiplayer, and more!
