<P>I'm really liking this format of " TV News " complete with "commercials.  LOL ..</P> <P>But, could "Pex" slow down his spiel?  His first News Segment was pretty much delivered at bullet speed!</P> <P>You (Raijinn) sound nervous and un-comfortable.   We won't bite .. hard .. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>Actually, he seemed to loosen up abit into the show.   I don't blame him.   </P> <P>Owlchick has a really good recorded voice!  Very pleasant to listen to. </P> <P>(mutters: Fairy Lover!)</P> <P>Oh!  And, EoF is supposed to be released on 11/14/06. </P> <P> </P>

[Raijinn]

Yeah at first I was a bit tense, in all honesty I haven't been in a recording studio in a very long time. I did some rogue internet radio stuff a while back but this was another animal all together. I had a great time doing the round table bits and hope to do that again sometime.

[Tstorm]

In my opinion, this is the best podcast to date.  At first I grimmaced as it is an hour long, but there was a lot of good stuff in there.  There was plenty of EQ2 news and talk, the commercials were funny, and the top 10 list was hilarious!I even liked the ending with intros from various SOE folks.  It personalizes SOE for players a bit which is always good.It was good hearing Raijinn in a podcast and while he did seem a little nervous at first, he seemed to get into it.  I do think Owlchick should have sung a song though and I will be expecting it for the next podcast. <span>:smileyhappy:</span><div></div>

[Josgar]

You aren't planning to dissapear too are you ? Anyways great podcast so far, I have 15 minutes left of it.<div></div>

I want to be a part of one of these Podcasts...I currently work at GameStop but I would rather do something IN gaming....<div></div>

[Owlchick]

<P>Maybe you should sing "That's What A Fae Can Be" and send a copy to Brenlo!  </P> <P>hehehehe!</P>

[Shipwreck_GPA]

<P>Coyote has no idea what a pegasus is. </P> <P>But he thinks that unicorns ROCK!</P>

lol thx for fixin that Coyote =P<div></div>

[PonderStibbons]

Great podcast folks.  Good to hear about the other SOE titles outside the EQ 'stable' too. In fact, going to reinstall MxO later today to see what they're doing for Halloween, sounds interesting <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />And next time Pex does the News for you? Tell him to take a breath once in a while.. sheesh, you'd think he was in a rush to get back to SWG player events or something <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>
