Episode 131: The "O"pacalypse Is Upon Us

Monday, January 26th, 2009

I have decided from now on to call new podcast day Funday from now on, and this Funday promises to leave no laugh behind.

With a bit of a miscommunication between talent wranglers, Pandalicious and NinJaSistah are left to their own devices and the usual quirkiness ensues. From Oprah, Obama, the T&A of Lara Croft, video game development cycles, the new Street Fighter movies back around to new console game demos there are few things that escape the conversation this week.

To give you an idea of how this episode of the podcast twists and turns, here are the nominated titles for the episode:

  • Milk-Chan, Inquiring Minds Want To Know
  • Time To Break Out The Plastic Underpants
  • How To Improve Your Accuracy When Shooting People In The Face
  • The “O”pacalypse Is Upon Us
  • There’s More To Lara Croft Than T&A
  • Introducing the Greatest Videogame of 2014
  • Here’s Something Even Pandalicious Won’t Touch
  • There Are “Methods” To Her Piracy
  • The Only Chinese In Kristen Kreuk Is Moo Goo Gai Pan
  • We Reveal The Final Fate of MagicMysticGrl
  • We Have Nothing to Fear, but F.E.A.R. 2
  • Are You A Good Douche Or A Bad Douche?
  • Microsoft Wonders If An Avatar Can Write A Press Release
  • and the podcast title goes to…

ESH podcast episode number 131:The “O”pacalypse Is Upon Us!

Enjoy the rest of your Funday morning, afternoon, or evening as the case may be.

Episode 130: You’re Not So Pure, But You Look Mah-vel-ous

Monday, January 19th, 2009

I’m not kidding when I write that this Monday morning, Pandalicious will totally steal yo muffins man. She was in a gang that did that, she admitted to it in this week’s episode of the podcast.

If I am honest, she admitted to that and a few other things as well.

This week, the ladies chat about the progress [or lack there of] Panda is making in Gears of War 2, comic book heros making the leap to the big screen, questions from the land of ESH, how awesome our fans are, then NinJa starts talking. We add in our take on the early retirement option the GS Blog and changes in the industry as a whole. Here is a list of the titles we didn’t use for this show:

  • It’s A Good Thing ESHMom Doesn’t Listen To This Show
  • If you Can’t Spell Girl, You’re Not Going To Attract One
  • Presenting Aquaman and His Merry Band of Fish
  • Batman and a Joker To Be Named Later
  • The Muffin Bandits Need You!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • NinJa Likes a Good Arcade Stick
  • Don’t Listen to Her – She’s Drunk and In Need of Food
  • and finally
  • Sacrifice a Human – You’ll Get Your Dog Back

The conversation switches, dips, dives, and gives somebody a swirly. So grab a beverage and enjoy ESH podcast episode number 130: You’re Not So Pure, But You Look Mah-vel-ous!

Episode 129: It’s a Guitar Only a Guitar Hero Could Love

Monday, January 12th, 2009

An audio podcast just doesn’t do justice to a couple of things the Sistahs bring up in their latest podcast. That’s why you’ve got to check out a couple of things in this post.

First, the Sistahs get a gander at the new logos for various Pepsi products, and they don’t like what they see. Neither will you:

Doesn’t bring a smile to my face, but this next thing does. The voiceover for the You Rock guitar is a little cheesy, but that doesn’t take away from the utility of this new peripheral:

As usual, we have to reject more titles than we use. Like these:

If You’re Pepsi and You Know It, Show Your Teeth

Episode 6 Is All In Your Head

If You Think This Is Explicit, You Should Try ESH After Dark

Pregnancy and Porn — Just Another Day In Pandaville

Platypussy — It’s Spore, Not the Next James Bond Film

A Panic Room With a View

Law & Order: Tsukihime (Dunk Dunk)

We Are All On the Internet, and We’re Playing With Each Other

Even if the new Pepsi logo doesn’t have you smiling, this episode will. Enjoy Episode 129: It’s a Guitar Only a Guitar Hero Could Love.

Episode 128: Panda Does Dallas, No I Don’t!

Monday, January 5th, 2009

I really don’t. I like caffeinated beverages. A lot. I can drink several of them in a row, which can lead to a very hyper new episode of the ESH podcast appearing on this site any given Monday… like this one.

In this episode of the podcast, the Sistahs of ESH spend a big chunk of time on viewer questions, Ninja shares her short list of console titles she’s looking forward to getting her grubby little mitts on, and Panda closes out the hour with a rundown and first impressions of the manga, “Captive Hearts.” It’s a laugh riddled, caffeine induced episode of the ESH podcast, I’ll share some of the titles we didn’t use to give you an idea of what the following hour and change show turned out to be like.

  • Your Hat Doesn’t Hover?
  • Emma Peel In Sailor Moon? That Defeats the Meaning of the 60’s!
  • Don’t Listen to One-Eyed-Critics
  • If I Whisper It, Maybe Microsoft Won’t Know That I’m Making Fun of Steve Ballmer
  • It’s Not Just Girl Stuff, It’s Girlie-Girl Stuff
  • I’d Like to See Some Lupus In My Anime
  • and
  • Oxidized Bread Can’t Be Turned Into Metal

I don’t mean to brag, I don’t mean to boast, but we’re like hot buttah on your breakfast toast in this episode guys. Plug in your headphones and take a listen to ESH Podcast Episode 128: Panda Does Dallas (No I Don’!)
