Here's our March show. Yes, it seems we're now to putting out one episode a month - and even that will be coming to a halt. Sethran is too busy on weekends to drive to my house and I just don't drive anywhere. So... there you go. We'll most likely make Episode 50 our big finale. Until then, here's this show's notes:

News

• Tweeter is closing 1/3 of its stores and... no one really seems to mind
  
  
• Apple TV has been shipped... and licked (by Olivia Munson!)
  
• Emma Watson (and the other 2 goobers) have officially signed contracts to finish Harry Potter movie series. Um... yeah?
• Xbox Live was hacked - or was it? Social Engineering is apparently still viable!
• Toshiba has announced a price drop on its HD DVD players - yeah!
  

Tech Toy

• Bozric has picked up a shiny new 24" Intel iMac
  

Movie Review

• Casino Royale - 007's latest romp, now available on DVD... and it's EXCELLENT!!!
  

We're back after a nice impromptu hiatus. We didn't really plan on taking six weeks between shows, it just didn't work out for us to actually get together long enough to record anything.

Anyway, here's the latest episode's notes:

News

• Robert Adler, co-father of the wireless TV remote passed away this month. We salute you, Bob, for letting us all get fat and lazy!
  
• Beer goggles have been scientifically proven to be true - TADA!
• Bozric's found yet another useless USB gadget, the singing Rain Sensor
  
• Vista's Speech Recognition could leave you vulnerable to a website actually TELLING your computer to delete your files
  
• The Wii is having some intermittent problems with 480p output

Tech Toy

• Sethran bought a Nintendo Wii - he really likes it... Bozric thought it was fun but probably won't be buying anytime soon

Movies

• Lady in the Water - One of M. Night Shyamalan's better efforts. Seth & Boz both downloaded the HD version from Xbox Live
  
• Crank - Sethran enjoyed it more than Boz did
  

The MacWorld Cast

So we hit the high points of the keynote for MacWorld (if we have to explain it to you, you shouldn't be listening)

1. Apple TV -- neat concept, we don't need it
   
2. iPhone (not Linksys's) -- looks cool, too bad it's on Cingular and costs more than a Corvette
   
3. New Airport Extreme -- it's fast, but not too fast
   
4. More movies on iTunes, but we don't know from whom
5. Axiotron makes the ModBook
   

Movie Review -- A Scanner Darkly
I thought it was cool, Bozric hated it but then proceded to watch it 3 times. Go figure.

It's like Mozart!

Our final show of 2006. Since it's been just over a month since our last show, we're closer to thirty minutes than normal, but it IS just under. Here's the show notes:

News

• New LAN (network) speed record

Tech Toy

Our 40th show! We didn't make a big hullabaloo about it, so... here's the notes:

• December 12th you'll be able to pre-order the long-awaited Optimus-103 Keyboard. Still no word on price or when it'll ship, but you can give the Russian developers money
  
• The Wii came out today and there have already been 2 reported dead
• The president of Universal says all iPod owners are thieves - and he wants a $1

Tech Toy

Movie (okay, so this one's a TV show)

• The latest Apple rumor is that they are, in time for Christmas this year, updating the MacBook Pro line to include the new Core2Duo processors - and Sethran rejoiced greatly
• Some time next year, Daewoo will be selling a voice-activated microwave. We have to ask... WHY???
• It's official! Google is purchasing You Tube for $1.6 Billion in stock. There are a couple of twenty-somethings that are so drunk right now!
• A Ukrainian scientist has invented a condom that plays music during sex, and again we have to ask... WHY???
  
• We both have shiny new Samsung LCD TVs:
  Sethran has the LNR377D, available exclusively at Sam's Club
  
  Bozric has the LNS4051D, available everywhere else
  
• And our movie for this episode is X-Men III: The Last Stand, available now on DVD
  

• Microsoft has released the Xbox Live Vision, a web cam peripheral for your beloved 360
  
• Yahoo, after much success with the personalized DRM-free song, has decided to expand the concept to an actual album... anyone know who Jesse McCartney is?

• iTunes is now selling movies... and they sold 125,000 in their first week!
• Intel announced that, rather than 1st Quarter of 2007, their Core 2 Quad chips will actually ship 4th Quarter of this year - and they're smokin'!
• Viewsonic debuted their new iPod-enabled monitor, only you can't use your iPod directly with the monitor
• IF you have an iPod AND you like to party, don't leave home without your very own iBreath iPod Alcohol Breathalyzer

• Lucky Number Slevin - we both loved it!
  
• Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - also an excellent movie
  
  Someone please convince Robert Downey, Jr. to stay clean and sober!

Episode 35 turned out to be a little longer than normal, as we just break the thirty minute mark... but's it's just chocked full of Brothers Green goodness. And here's the info to prove it:

• Sony Mylo - if you want to help Sony rule the world and try to regain their "hip" factor, you'll want one of these
  
• Apple announced they are teaming up with the teamsters - Ford, GM & Mazda are all going to be including iPod integration with their 2007 line of vehicles
• The Opera browser for Nintendo's DS is spreading from Japan to Europe in October
• Firebox has released their line of virtual "Tamagotchi"-like boy/girlfriends. Get yours now for only $38!
  
• A Japanese farmer has grown square watermelons - and they're a steal at $83 a piece!
  
• MyTunesRSS is a nifty little program that's supposed to allow access to your iTunes library via the net, anywhere... but Boz couldn't get it to work - at all
• Drano Liquid Gel Max does work - if you have a clogged drain, get it!
• We both liked the movie V for Vendetta
  
• The Aquaman Pilot is now available in iTunes
• Bozric hated The Net 2.0 and won't let Sethran watch it
  

We announced in the last show that we don't really edit our episodes once we start recording. We did receive an inquiry as to where the outtake at the end of every episode comes from. They're actually from other recordings. We typically turn the mics on as soon as they're set up and record a bunch of crap that only serves as a mic level check - not meant for public consumption, except in very small quantities. Hence, the outro snippet. This show, for example, we were discussing the finer points, or lack thereof, of Hardee's new Milk Shake commercials. Thanks for asking!

I've heard of Europe.

This show was recorded using our Fostex recorder from the comfort of my upstairs' sectional... which actually caused more technical issues than when I hook up everything into my mac. Go figure.

Anyway, here's this show's list of topics:

• Microsoft finally admits they're developing Zune
  
• Yahoo is now selling non-DRM mp3's and Seth bought one
• MPAA hoped Shawn Hogan, CEO of Digital Point Solutions, would settle for $2500 when they threatened him with a lawsuit. He said he'd see 'em in court. Go Shawn!
• Wendy's adds new flavor to Frosty lineup after only 37 years
• Wizmark - coming to a urinal near you!
  
• This week's tech toy is Bozric's new Motorola Q
  
• And finally, our review of Matador, on DVD everywhere

Well, yet another week and no "podcast" to speak of... what we do have is available for listening - at your own risk! We were trying out a few different options for recording an audio session and hit a few snags. Some of them were software issues, mostly we had a hardware problem - my laptop! It kept overheating and just turning off, no warning, no error messages, just ... *poof* it's off.

We do have an amusing (to us) recording of Sethran talking while my system died and then you hear his phone ring while he is still talking. The audio clip ends with him saying, "Why are you calling me?!?"

Good times... good times...
