Does the Radio Trivia logo show in iTunes for anyone after you've subscribed (in cover flow view)? I get a generic image for RT, but not RFN. The logo shows up fine in the iTunes store.... Do I need to use that horrid AAC format to get that logo to appear when playing the audio?!

IDK how I missed this release, but thank you! I'll download now and bring back some feedback!

I don't understand this at all, it doesn't show up in iTunes but when I downloaded the episode straight to my iPhone to try out the feature in the new firmware it showed up there. And what's so bad about AAC?

[TheYoungerPlumber]

Anyone else having problems? I can find it in iTunes...

aac is more work Also, it isn't as well supported.

[AV]

it worked for me. i already had iTunes open in the background and I hit the iTunes link and it took me right to the source. I subscribed and it started to download to the newest episode. YEAHHHH.

I'm using a Mac OS 10.55 and the newest versions of Safari and iTunes.

Not the best of WaveRace music, but that kicks ass that you used a game I asked for! Thank you!!

[TheYoungerPlumber]

If there are specific songs you'd like when you request a game, let me know and I'll try to accommodate. (I retain veto power, though. If I think a song is bad, too easy, etc. I may still pick a different one.)

I'm so happy to hear that TYP played the game I requested, too.  I never got to try the two player game, so I'm jealous.

Where did you find the music?  I looked around before making the request, but I didn't know where to look, and Google didn't seem to, either.


I also used to get part of game 4, song 2 stuck in my head sometimes.  That game may have seemed clunky, but I sure liked it.  It looks like a weird mix of action and RPG, but it's really almost all RPG, complete with grinding.

Even with the aid of picking one of them, I only managed to get three games right today.

[TheYoungerPlumber]

I've had the music around for a while for that game, PartyBear. Not sure where I got it.

[NWR_insanolord]

The second song from my game is one of my top 3 game songs ever.

Don't get discouraged, I love this podcast!

Cool.  I finally got to listen to this now that I'm back from the Thanksgiving holidays, and I really enjoyed this one.  Please keep it up!

TYP, here's just a bit of useless, unimportant, but maybe fun trivia.  I watched the animated movie that you mentioned in this episode (around game 4) many times growing up, but that's because I was such a fan of the source material.  It was originally released in '77, and the company that produced it was Rankin/Bass.  This is the studio that brought us those (horrific?) stop-motion/animated Christmas specials such Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town, etc.  Here's something even weirder: the animation studio hired by Rankin/Bass to make said movie was Topcraft (an division of Toei Animation); several of the Japanese animators in that firm that worked on this movie went on to work for Studio Ghibli.  I found this out when I noted that there were several things about the art in Thundercasts cartoon series that reminded me about this movie; after doing a little digging, I found out that Topcraft was involved in the production of Thundercats as well. 

Also, if it makes it easier, my screen name is actually pronounced soon'-doo-los...not that it matters.  It's the English equivalent of a word used several times throughout the original Greek New Testament, meaning "a fellow servant, one who serves the same master with another."  I'm a professing Christian, and had heard it used elsewhere, so I kind of like using it as a screen name.  Plus its a name used by Sundoulos World Motor Sports.
