Episode 158 - E3 Blow by Blow

June 22, 2010 14:43

John from VGrevolution joins Andy and Dave to talk about E3, since he was actually there. Believe us when he talks and talks and talks.

LThanda: Episode 157 - 77 Minutes In A Library - Worth Listening To

June 14, 2010 08:15

Ok, so I'll be frank with you all. I think this is one of our best episodes yet. I felt that it was so good, that I would INVENT and utilize my once a year "David's Length Prerogative", which states that for one episode a year I get to override "Andy's 60-minute rule" and have the podcast go on and on and on and on.. Andy still shortened it, so it should SOUND the same with that hurried conversation that you all know and love (as a result of the "remove silence" feature) but there's just...

Episode 157 - 77 Minutes In A Library

June 12, 2010 01:34

Another live recording in Dave's Apartment! And according to his logic, nobody was wearing a single pair of pants during the recording.

LThanda: Episode 154 - Chips and Brakes - Cuter

May 29, 2010 22:04

There has been an unofficial survey going around asking who is cuter, Andy or Dave. Do NOT trust the results of this survey!

Qs23: Episode 153 - Hello - Survey Drawing Numbers

May 22, 2010 00:59

This is here just to let everybody know that the drawing has happened. And it's been done fair and square. 17, 11, 10, 3 and 14. Dave and I know who those people are, and we'll be contacting you shortly.

Qs23: Episode 150 - Random Topic Recap # 9 - Just so you know...

May 03, 2010 19:25

The reasons that the podcast isn't up already are two fold. #1. We recorded at 2pm yesterday, so I had less then 12 hours till Monday hit. #2. It seems that the HDD that I recorded to, seems to have some issues. So it's taking a long time to get my uncompressed audio files to do anything right now. (Saving the files normally takes 4 mins - Right now it's 15 mins... each) That's also why my voice is sounding a little odd during this episode.

Episode 151 - Yes, Andy sounds weird

May 02, 2010 22:30

Kyle Ellicott, an old friend of Andy's, comes back to taunt us with a beta product. And yes, Andy sounds weird. Sorry.

Qs23: Episode 148 - Please Take Our Survey - I'm looking at you...

April 15, 2010 02:22

Yes, you. You're reading this and you haven't taken the survey yet. "What survey?" you might have just asked. The RAPodcast Listener Survey is my answer. It's an easy 10 question (Ok, 9 questions and a comment box) survey that is really going to help us out. Plus, you might be picked to receive an Amazon gift card. What have you got to lose?

LThanda: Episode 147 - Pax Recap - The Survey

April 11, 2010 19:03

Well, we hope you all like our April Fool's episode. We haven't done one before, and it was a lot of fun to try to put it together. Andy took the original idea with it and ran. However, that's not what I'm here to write about. What I want to tell you, those of you who read these things, is that we have started a survey. We get several kinds of metrics for this site, but they provide conflicting information. We would like to find out a bit of our own information. As such, there is ...

Episode 148 - Please Take Our Survey

April 11, 2010 03:42

LThanda: Episode 140 - Deep In The Heart Of Texas - Something to Look at

February 15, 2010 09:22

I don't often use this position to write a post anymore. I generally prefer to just let the episode speak for itself. However, from time to time, I come across a gem of the internet, and I prefer not to wait for the rigid self-imposed publishing schedule that we have set up. This is one of those times. EA, a company that we have on occasion insulted, has done something rather amazing. This site is where you can download C&C: Tiberian Dawn, C&C Red Alert, and C&C: Tiberian Sun. These...

Qs23: Episode 135 - Loud Noises - It Worked!

January 13, 2010 23:19

So for those of you who are following us on iTunes, you may have just noticed that the Podcast title has changed from "RAPodcast" to "Random Access Podcast". I know that doesn't change anything else, but it's something that I've been wanting done since, well I'm not sure when. Now the next step is to get people to write reviews and rate us on iTunes. I wonder how long that is going to take?

Episode 135 - Loud Noises

January 08, 2010 23:51

Our first female guest, Laura Miller, joins us for this episode. A perfect guest for the random topic, btw.

Episode 134 - Not A Random Topic Recap

Suprise! You thought it would be a random topic recap, but we lied. We're sorry.

Qs23: Episode 133 - Contents: 2009 - Help!

January 02, 2010 05:59

So...um... I deleted the list of random topics we choose from. So if you remember any, and could repost them, that would be awesome. Or hey, post some new ones. While

Qs23: Episode 130 - Put Your Faces On It - 3 Things

December 08, 2009 05:00

#1. The first is that it's Outro, not Outtro. #2. It's not really hijacking when The OneUps are posting it online for free. #3. If my mic sounded horrid, it's because after 7 years (3 of which was podcasting) the free USB mic I got with SOCOM Has given up the ghost. Here's to the only mic that's been with the Random Access Podcast since the beginning. You'll be missed.

LThanda: Episode 130 - Put Your Faces On It - VGMusic

December 06, 2009 09:09

Long ago in the days of Napster, when you could browse other peoples' music files and download a-la-cart, I started seeing some interesting files. Mp3s that had titles like "Zelda Remix" and "One Winged Angel". These songs called to me through some unknown force, and enthralled me. My collection expanded greatly and rapidly when I discovered the OSTs for Final Fantasy, and put much of my money towards though purchases. Then I found the glory of OCRemix, and all the amazing artists there....

Qs23: Episode 128 - Laughing Minion of Undernight - Just to let you know...

November 24, 2009 05:25

I would have actually gotten it up sooner, but the podcast ran long and I had to manually cut down the podcast length.

LThanda: Episode 128 - Laughing Minion of Undernight - Above and Beyond

November 23, 2009 10:06

I rarely comment here anymore, preferring to let the show do most of the speaking for itself, but today I can not remain silent. You see, we recorded this episode on Saturday, at about 1:00. Usually, by this time, Andy has already done some editing, so that he can spread it around during the weekend and not drive himself insane. However, the late recording of this episode meant that Andy had to cram in alllll his editing into one day, Sunday, in order to have the episode out to you guys "...

Episode 128 - Laughing Minion of Undernight

Episode 125 - Turkish Rambo

Everything seemed to be going fine... till Andy's computer was taken over by Adobe Acrobat.

Episode 123 - Random Topic Recap #5
