Post Questions and News for Podcast #21
July 9th, 2008
#21! The HE Podcast is Legal!
Let’s do something a little different. Instead of going over the news I’ve saved through out the week, then doing the mail, let’s see if you guys can come up with:
- News for discussion
- Links to stories and items of geek interest
- AND your questions for the Podcast Crew
Feel free to post anything you like. We’ll let the Fancy Bastards call the shots on this one.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Kind of a generic question, but which podcasts do you guys listen to?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
This has /sort of/ been answered on the forums, but not by J, E, and the big D.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Congrats on the full frontal nudity in the last castcast, which I missed because I'm stealing Wifi on the run from Heihachi and his hordes of easily defeatable drones, and I'm essentially at 1.5 dial up.
I was thinking about Betazoids, and my question is this: if you could read minds, what would you do with the ability and what would suck mottled diesel balls about it.

First Whedon/Goddard's Cabin in the Woods has been greenlit.

Discuss your thoughts on the matter.
This one is for Joel, when your daughter is older do you plan on being straightforward with her about the content in the comic and podcasts or are you going to shield her from it for as long as possible?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Aargh, I'm not the first question this time! Shame on me.
Anyway, I wanted to ask this time…
What's each podcaster's favorite liquor, and favorite mixed drink?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
son of a bitch, i guess i'll have to come up with a new question…and visit the forums
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Where is Undefeatable?
The internet is my favorite part of the podcast, if you take that away, how will I know what happened this week in internet? If you are going to cut this segment, please consider posting a "This Week In Internet" post. If you've already read the internet, here are some of my picks. These should go pretty quickly.

By the time you record the podcast the iPhone 3G will be released, so does Josh have one (or 3) yet?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Of all Super-Powers out there which one would u want to have the most? and least?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Is it true that, if you're a vegetarian, the product of a thing you do to a part, has a sweeter flavor? -And that being held true, what are each of your experiences as relates to that? I've also heard that if you eat too many sweets, it can be bitter. -How has this impacted anyone's relationship?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Where's the beef?
The "Let's fuck up the fourth amendment" bill passed and went into effect as of the 9th. What are your thoughts? Linky: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FISA_Amendments_Act_...
For the Gearbox peeps, looking forward to E3? What's it like as a designer or non-PR/advertising person in the industry during E3?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Your question is very difficult to understand, and I doubt that the crew will get it, but since I do I'll hit you with some knowledge… If your diet consists of -only- citrusy fruit for at least a week, the result is sweetness. Food high in fats and meat don't usually result in a pleasant experience. Now that I've successfully alienated everyone, I'll finish with the subject. We're talking about blowjobs.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Dude, gay! I'm totally talking about pineapple upside-down cake, and if candy'ing the pineapple causes the acids to become more acute in the baking process; and how a high-sugar diet ruins the pallet. I mean, honestly!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Are any of you guys listening to the PA/PvP 4th Ed. DnD podcast? If so, what do you think? If not, why the fuck not?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Well, I think the question could stand. It's only been answered by Joel after all.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
I've always wondered that about famous and obscene parents.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Adding to LiteSpecter's advice, the general consensus is thus:
Bad—-
meat
vegetables
starches
Good—-
candy
sweet fruits
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
those fuckers don't play DnD. Commies.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Not a question, but a request for the inevitable "Joel whips out the guitar" part of the show- I'd love to hear your take on Dead Flowers from Townes Van Zandt – it's the track at the end of The Big Lebowski. I get a similar vibe toward the end of each HE podcast as I do TBL or a couple of beer-and-laughter hours with the fellas.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
what….is your favorite word/least favorite word?
edit: also, this is totally a 21st copout. just cause you're all drunk and hung over, podcast, doesn't mean we should do all your work for you!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
The question is certainly valid, but you should check out the forums anyway. New members and new perspectives are always welcome. The podcast thread is at

Here's the video Josh referenced in the last podcast about Batman and Chuck Norris engaging in an epic battle. Keep in mind that this was made just shy of three years ago, so the Chuck Norris fanboyism was still fresh. Also it is much more gratifying to watch Indiana Jones get murdered now that I have seen _Crystal Skull_

I'm still a little upset none of them wore fruit rollups for undergarments. Not even Denise.

Rose McGowan has just been announced as playing the lead in the new Red Sonja movie. Can she pull it off?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Is there an celebrity that you hate for no reason? For instance, I hate both Jamie Foxx and Greg Kinnear and I don't know why.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Wait, WHICH fuckers? The Mike, Jerry, and Scott, or Joel, Josh, Eli, and Denise?

If you were stuck in the holodeck during a malfunction and forced to battle
for your survival with any weapon of antiquity from anywhere in the world, which
would you choose? Bear in mind that "antiquity" in this case means predating the
eighteen-hundreds.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Spoon. Both because it's dull and because there isn't one.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Josh, Joel, Eli, and Denise. Actually I don't know about Denise, but I doubt it. It was in the male sack a while back.

Well, I think I've played DnD maybe twice, and that was, uhmm…about 15 years ago. The only other real RP experience I have was a summer-long Star Trek game almost 20 years ago. The PA/PvP DnDcasts are making me order the 4th Ed rulebooks, though, just to flip through 'em and be sad I have no friends.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
.What were your 21st's like? Anything special?
.How did you not make a 'Brave Little Toaster' joke when talking about Robocop in #20? It was RIGHT THERE…

Unless things have changed, they said previously that neither of them were on that team.

Greek belly-bow. Because carrying a giant crossbow is awesome….and the Greeks figured it would be the "Weapon to end all wars", so it oozes a sweet jelly of irony filling.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Must have missed that, thanks!

Last minute addendum (cue up the "fail" sound):

Favourite quote:
"It’s too early to presume that season eight will be the last, so it would be premature to make any kind of a call."
Ugh.
They do, however, mention more DCU characters; I'll give them kudos if they do Green Lantern and can pull it off.
