The Phileas Club 10: Usans

I had a fantastic time as usual guesting on The Phileas Club podcast hosted by Patrick Beja. The idea of his podcast is to find people from all parts of the world and get them to share their perspectives on the big news of the day, while also sharing what’s going on in their local region.

Turki from Saudi Arabia is a regular on the show and an invaluable peek into what’s going on there. We were also lucky enough to get Julio, an engineer from the European Space Agency, who is Argentinian, lives in the Netherlands and works in space. You gotta listen.

The Instance #137 – Come On Down!

Had a fantastic time guest-hosting on one of my favorite podcasts yesterday. The Instance with Randy Jordan and Scott Johnson is a World of Warcraft podcast. The only thing that sucks about being on it is that I love to listen to it, and now I already have. But that shouldn’t cheat you. We talk about some wide-ranging tech stuff actually inclusing the eco-system for independent modders.

#016 – The S&L Podcast: Pants!

This week we check in on the beginning of the Wheel of Time series. Veronica’s ahead of me and says the thing really picks up right after the point I stopped. Which makes me think she’s just trying to get me to start reading again. Which is fine. One of the problems is I’m reading Watchmen at the same time in advance of the movie. I’ll share a few impressions about that with you as well. We also discuss the book Daemon as reviewed on Slashdot. Should it be our next book choice?

Finally we take some reader comments, including a Wheel of Time Drinking Game and someone calling the last book “pants.” We’re pretty sure that means he didn’t like it. Welcome to the wonderful world of monthly Sword and Laser! Woo-hoo! Pant
