Title: Episode 56: A Day Late and a Dollar Short
Post by: greybrick on June 06, 2011, 10:45:39 PM

This is what we like to call "Fun Size".

With E3 underway, it's unfortunate that our episode from last week ended up being few days late, and considerably shorter in length. If you're looking for a fun way to kill some time between following press conferences this week, tune in to hear our take on last week's fresh, fresh news.

I'm tempted to skip and see if Nathan will be sacrificed this E3.

I got sold short.  Why is Nathan leaving?

I downloaded the Pokedex from the eShop at the same time I downloaded this podcast.

@ Ceric


I was going to have to stop the show because of my commute, but we worked something out :)


I love doing the Newscast, but recently I've been very crabby and worn down from my work week. By the time I was getting on the show, I just wasn't ready to put out a quality effort. Of course everybody works, but at a total of 4 hours in the car each day sometimes, I was going nuts.


Thanks co-hosts and sorry, listeners!

Well, you'll be missed Nathan.  (Sounds like you need a way to cut down that commute, though!)

Seriously a 4 hour commute each day isn't healthy.  I'm assuming it's you driving the whole time.  Is their some way that you could use public transit for part of it?  Like take the Train or something though half of it so you could at least play DS or read a book.  Something that doesn't require your full concentration.  Car Pooling but, with 2 hours I doubt anyone is going the same place.  Just something to break that up a bit.

This is actually a good article (http://www.slate.com/id/2295603) about Commuting with different links to sources but it doesn't suggest how to make it better.  Personally I do the 45 Minute one way commute every day.  Though I do it because its in the middle of my Wife and I's work so we're both doing 45 Minute commutes.
