Episode X: The Non-Canonical One
« on: July 22, 2012, 11:30:52 AM »

What if, in lieu of a regular episode, some of your favorite RFN hosts sat down to play a game of... Jeopardy?

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/rfn/31128

You ever have a favorite TV show that delays progressing the story by featuring a one-off episode that both ignores and fails to impact the show's continuity entirely? Welcome to that episode of Radio Free Nintendo!

With the crew off for a little summertime R&R, Zach and I thought it might be fun to see if the guys would let us take control of RFN for a week in order to settle a bet once and for all: who is the most Nintendo-savvy of the Free Birds? The only way to do that, of course, is through a game of Jeopardy. So sit back and enjoy as James, Guillaume, and Daan (of the Famicast!) each try to secure the title of King Free Bird.

RFN will return to its regularly scheduled programming next week. If you need more words in your ears before then, you can always check out our other podcasts: Connectivity, the Famicast, and Radio Trivia.

Also, thanks to the boys for letting us take control for a week. In the words of Willard Christopher Smith, "I have got to get me one of these." Also, "WHOO!"

So I was half-right in the plugs for the Forumcast - there was Connectivity and Jeopardy, just not simultaneously.

Maybe we'll do it down the road. Most of us Connectivity guys aren't as smart as the RFN crew, so don't expect much!

its nice of u to give us something on RFN's off week, BUT
i dont get the joy outta that little trivia game that u all do.
fortunately i saved my last Famicast and i'll be listing to that instead.
mark as played. done.  thanks again for the effort, but its not just
that James Jones is on RFN that makes it #1 on NWR. and its not
that they have a show that sounds like a 360 mini game show.
its because they talk games, mostly nintendo, still, but that they
dont do the we play trivia and u listen thing.
but again i appreciate the effort.

I like Connectivity Jeopardy, but James Jones makes it 20 times better.

Now if Lindeman was there... it would go down in legend.

I think RFN Jeopardy was a failure because Lindemann wasn't there. Other than that, it's wonderful. (Jonny already had his hooks in a dominating round on Connectivity).

And hey, Connectivity talks games, too. :P We just mix it up with some weird stuff, like Nintendo-themed trivia in which we talk games.

For the record, I do not consider "Nintendo World Report Presents" to be part of the title of my podcast. That's simply part of the logo and for clarification of the web site association, just as it is for Radio Free Nintendo.

Maybe I was being a little bit of a dick with that one.  ;D
