Episode 161: There's a Lot of Facial Violence in This Episode

Monday, August 31st, 2009 by NinJaSistah

We aren't talking punch and pie, we are talking uppercuts and decks to the face in this episode of the podcast. I should clarify that statement. Pandalicious is talking uppercuts and face decking, NinJaSistah mostly just tries to stay out of the way.

In this episode of the podcast Pandalicious lays bare her tale of woe concerning the temporary loss of her XBox Live account, and how the lack of connecting is affecting her life. From the bounce around treatment of customer care reps on both the XBox Live email and phone support, and quick response from the Windows Live ID groups to the soon-to-be-catch-phrase-of-the-end-of-summer, "...and then you get punched in the face!" Calling her segment a rant doesn't do it justice.

Bringing a little bit of tranquillity back to the show, NinJaSistah adds some gadget/peripheral stuff to the mix like Ion Audio's new $199 DrumRocker Core Rock Band kit as well as some info on the new Star Wars comics coming to an iTunes store [and Dark Horse hopes] and iPod/iPhone near you. Capping off the hour is a bit on the Square Enix PSP title Final Fantasy Dissidia and a heads up for your PAX attendees on a Tekken 6 tournament for prizes that you should jump on.

Want a better picture of what the episode is like? Here are the titles we didn't use:

  • From Now On, It's Panda-Phish-Us
  • LadyESH Is Secure in Her Chastity Belt
  • If Xbox Live Doesn't Get Their Act Together, They're Going to Be Xbox Dead
  • Remember What Happened to Bambi's Mom? That's What This Is Like
  • Something Like Tis Could Drive Someone Back to the Loving Arms of WoW
  • Screw Criminal Justice -- I'm Switching to Victim Justice
  • Perhaps the Perpetrator Was Someone From Sony
  • On CSI Miami, This Case Would Have Been Solved in 45 Minutes
  • Something's Rising at PAX Yeast
  • Don't Drive and DS
  • Hello Kitty's Already Doin' It
  • and finally...
  • I've Resorted to Playing My Wii -- and That's Not Gaming At All

So kick back and enjoy, Episode 161: There's a Lot of Facial Violence in This Episode

In this episode of the podcast, Pandalicious kicks the show off with what she took away from the new Tarantino flick "Inglourious Basterds," followed by some open conversation about the Rock Band support for the Lips wireless microphones as well as the new PS3 slim. Then we back the conversation up to games and NinJa jumps in with quick reactions to both Live Arcade titles Trials HD and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled.

To give you an idea of what this episode is like, here are some of the titles we didn't use:

Episode 159: His Game Made Us Hate Balls

Monday, August 17th, 2009 by NinJaSistah

Yes. Yes they do. In this new episode of the ElectricSistaHood podcast, the ladies are joined by fellow AllGames Radio fam Loserly from Dead Pixel Live and fun and giggles ensue.

We got a great question a while back from Trinity Angel and finally got a hold of it and a great round table to talk about it. So we kick the episode off right talking about MMORPG's and how they do or do not translate well on to consoles. Then NinJa jumps in to chat about the pending Marvel Alliance II game, nerds out on comics for a second or two and then Pandalicious swings the convo around towards the new season of The Guild with avid gamer and social media addict Felicia Day.

We had a great time, and a great discussion, if you want proof here are some of the titles we didn't use for this one:

  • 90 Seconds of Awesome, 70 Hours of Drudgery
  • There's Massively Multiplayer, But 256 Is Ridiculously Multiplayer
  • They'll Be Back, Doing God-Knows-What to God-Knows-Who
  • With a Last Name Like Doom, This Doctor's Not Going to Follow the Hippocratic Oath
  • Stan Lee's Going to Be a Playable Character, Unlike Real Life
  • Panda Wants the Nipple Cut Out
  • When You're In It, You Don't Know How In It You're In
  • Everyone Knows You Can't Shoot Beams From Your Staff
  • Canadians Don't Need Jobs, They Need Beer
  • and finally
  • Even My Laptop Doesn't Want Me to Play WoW

Told you it was a good one. Kick back, and enjoy ElectricSistaHood Podcast episode 159: His Game Made Us Hate Balls

  • The Naruto Door Is Marked "Exit"
  • This Is a Warning For All Aspiring Spinal Tap Drummers

Episode 157: On Our Hands and Knees On the Cutting Room Floor

Monday, August 3rd, 2009 by NinJaSistah

Helmed by a solitary host this week, a new ESH podcast episode is born...

The Ninja girl came down with an abominable case of laryngitis that she just could not shake, so it was left to Pandalicious and Evermore to put together a great show. Would they be able to pull it off? What kind of show would they produce? First of all, of course they would pull it off, they are awesome and "B" it would almost have to be a clip show ya silly.

It's a cutting room floor show ladies and gents, featuring all previously un-aired ESH bits like an audience question from Jerel Smith, some Portal and Portal 2 talk from Episode 107 and even Ultimate Quest podcast host Xenocore's top 5 anime series to learn by. There is a bunch of fun tid-bits, extra tangents, and as always cursing and laughter.

Oh yeah, shameless plugs for our sibling podcast The Boston Bastard Brigade. So grab your favorite frosty and/or heated beverage of choice and enjoy Electric Sista Hood Podcast Episode 157: On Our Hands and Knees On the Cutting Room Floor
