Thanks for the Heavy Rain shoutout, Jon. I’d be interested to hear how things panned out in the story for you and Matt. We have a HR spoiler thread on our forums if you’re interested in spilling the beans there.
Totally agree with Matt on Bioshock (both one and two): I really dig the games, but both of them overstay their welcome by a good two hours or so. I would enjoy them much more if they were 25% shorter.
But I disagree on final Fantasy–to me, it felt like a Final Fantasy game right away, and I really enjoy the music. Pretty impressive game so far.
Also, Friday Night Lights? Brilliant. And Jon, the cast is chock full of hot broads, if you can’t get interested in watching it for any other reason.
Hi, I’m “IsntJonesyman” I’d like to win your contest please.
Also, Matt, thank you for introducing me to Elbow, really like them a lot. I dig the mellow groove.
Bummer on the lack of main topic, but thanks for still getting a podcast out.

isn’t full of a lot of high school broads?
They’re all legal, I assure you. (or I assure myself–I can’t remember which)
