We're doin' it live, for the kids, all over again! UPDATE: The full recording is now available -- all 9 hours!
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/sitenews/32097
We're back with another mega-podcast for charity, all performed live with many opportunities to interact with the NWR crew and our special guests. Please consider supporting this event with a generous donation to Child's Play -- all money goes directly to the charity (all we do is track it through a service recommended by Child's Play). When certain amounts are reached, we'll unlock another hour of exciting live content! Check out the incredible results of the previous editions of this event -- in 2010 and 2011.
The show is over, but you can hear the magic with the three-part recording. Subscribers to Radio Free Nintendo will get it automatically; otherwise, just download with the links below!
Part 1 - Wii U, Metroid Prime, Eurocast (Enhanced AAC or MP3)
Part 2 - Radio Trivia, Nintendoaire, Famicast (Enhanced AAC or MP3)
Part 3 - NFR's Wait Wait, 3DS Report Card, Shenanigans (Enhanced AAC or MP3)
JIGGAWHAT: An epic Nintendo/gaming-themed live audio "podcast" telethon

JIGGAHOW: Magic of the Internet
Here at Nintendo World Report, we've long been supporters of Child's Play, the fantastic charity that provides toys and games to hospitalized kids. If you're not familiar with Child's Play, check out the official website and listen to Jonny's RFN Special interview with Mike Krahulik, co-founder of the charity (and Penny Arcade), way back in 2007. So, when our old friend Karl Castaneda brought us an idea for doing a special, live-streaming podcast to support Child's Play, we got excited. Not only can we do things live that don't make sense in a recorded show, like real-time listener interaction, but the lack of editing means there are fewer constraints on how long the show can run. Then we thought... why not do it telethon-style, all day long? It's been a great success so far, and this year we're hoping to raise more money than ever for this excellent charity!
***If you are new to NWR podcasts, please be advised that the show contains explicit language. We're doin' it for the kids, but the show itself is for grown-ups.***

Ways You Can Help:
Or we could just combine them and have one segment be live commentary of Ponies :D Get Maxi in on that.
I would volunteer but I would need Lamp Assistant.Or we could just combine them and have one segment be live commentary of Ponies :D Get Maxi in on that.
I'd donate extra for that
Man, I just spotted the wait-wait-don't-tell-me segment that's up there. That hyped me up! I can't wait!
Other than that, you guys are in for a treat.
......I'll be donating TWO Wii U.
But no, I won't be donating a Wii U. ;)
@crosstawk: @DonaldMick $5000. If we go $1000 over our goal, I will divulge the entirety of the infamous Red Velvet story on the final segment.
Holy f***! I'll have to sell my house and family to reach this goal if necessary...You wouldn't happen to have a Baby girl with good genetics would ya?
You wouldn't happen to have a Baby girl with good genetics would ya?Not a baby I'm afraid, she turn 4 in December but she is a very good kid. Top notch if I may say so myself!
Hmm... I've got a 4 year old son (April) That might be far enough apart :P Now my son is spoiled and needs Discipline but, he is one of those really resilient kids who are hard to discipline or tell you their actually sick.You wouldn't happen to have a Baby girl with good genetics would ya?Not a baby I'm afraid, she turn 4 in December but she is a very good kid. Top notch if I may say so myself!
The first third will be coming along later tonight.
The second and third cuts will be coming throughout the week.
Yeah Red Velvet was astonishing. I could hardly believe it was real, I lost it when Karl admitted he continued working there for two more months.
So, wondering when you guys will get part 2 & 3 up?
Have listened to part 1 about 4 times now, going onto the fifth listen now, and dying to hear
the rest as I missed it all last Saturday!
Keep up the SHAMAZING work you guys! And would love to hear more of the Eurocast weekly if you can do it!
Roll on the 18th and 30th!
Where is the first third?
