Episode 89 with The Instance

The Latest Episode

 

Yes, our friends (and Turpster’s co-hosts) from The Instance, Scott Johnson and Willie Dills, were kind enough to join us this week to chat about — well, mostly gaming in general. But the real point of talking to them (other than the fact that they’re nice guys and excellent podcasters) was to chat about The Instance Old Republic edition, and see what these guys all think of the Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO. Everybody involved has some excellent opinions, so tune in and listen for those. We also talked at length about Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and you can hear Scott’s interview with 38 Studios head Curt Schilling over on his Final Score podcast. Huge thanks to both Scott and Willie for joining us — odds are you already listen to the Instance and Scott’s great work at Frogpants, but if not, go give them your ears!

We also answered your emails and voicemails this week — you can email us anytime you like at theshow@incrediblepodcast.com, or give us a call at 1-830-4-TURPS-4. We had some pretty heinous hate mail this week, so maybe next week (as we move closer to Valentine’s Day), we can get some love mail. Looking at you, ladies!

And in the meantime, enjoy the show! We have been lax on recording lately, but we should be back next week as usual, and we might even have a new guest to chat with. We’ll be back live on Ustream Sunday morning, bright and early on Mike’s time, at 9am PST. See you then!

 

Episode 88 – The Shape of T(eeth)

The Latest Episode

 

We recorded this episode earlier in the week but Turpster has been so busy doing sweet F.A that he’s only just gotten around to uploading it on the day we record the next episode! GG T! (It’s ok, I can say all of these horrid things about The T since I, Turpster, am writing this)

The episode was vitally important for raising awareness of Mike’s new eBook “The Shape of Teeth” and the several different editions available for purchase for fans of the show. Since I’ve only just gotten around to uploading it, I’m going to guess that none of you have yet purchased Mike’s collection of short stories…you can rectify that now and go buy it for the low, low price of $7. Better yet, get the collector’s edition for just $3 more and you get a whole heap of extras.

Shoot an email over to the show’s email (theshow@incrediblepodcast.com) and we’ll make sure to deliver EVEN MORE content for anyone who’s bought either version of the book.

As always we read out your emails and play your phone calls. If you hear something on the show you’d like to respond to, please do email us at theshow@incrediblepodcast.com. You can also call us at 1-830-4-TURPS-4 which can always be more fun.

Episode 87 with Nicole and Mateo Spagnuolo (w/ Special Guest!)

The Latest Episode

 

Ding dong merrily on high! The Christmas episode of TIPOAA is almost in time for Christmas (one day out isn’t that bad now is it?!) We were fortunate enough to have a super bumper cast of guests on this past week with not one, not two, but THREE guests on this special festive episode.

Nicole Spag was back and on form, letting all potential mothers out there know that your gaming time WILL be significantly abridged with the birth of your first child – this has since put Turpster right off the idea of kids. We were also joined by the occasional sound from Mateo Spagnuolo, the youngest podcast guest we’ve ever had on the show at just seven weeks! He didn’t have a huge amount to add, but when he did, it was usually to disagree with something Mike said or to sigh at one of Turpster’s most excellent jokes.

Finally we were joined by an old favourite of the show, it wouldn’t be Christmas without her, of course, it was Mrs. Claus. With Santa always being so busy at this time of year its a real privilege to get a chance to talk with Mrs. Claus and get an idea of what really goes on behind the scenes in the North Pole.

Amongst all this, Turpster got his new Doghouse Systems Laptop and Mike has his new eBook coming out. Very exciting times!

As always we read out your emails and play your phone calls. If you hear something on the show you’d like to respond to, please do email us at theshow@incrediblepodcast.com. You can also call us at 1-830-4-TURPS-4 which can always be more fun.

Finally, both Mike and I would like to wish you all a fantastic festive holiday and a cracking New Year. We should be back sometime this week in advance of 2012 (THE END OF THE WORLD!) so keep an eye out on Twitter!

Episode 86 with guest Andrea Rene

The Latest Episode

 

Our guest this last week was the beautiful and talented Andrea Rene — you can find her on her website, on Twitter, or over on Clevver Gaming, where she posts news and videos daily about the latest and greatest games. She talks about some of her favorite games of the year with us, chats about what being live at the Video Game Awards was like, and rolls her eyes as Mike talks about what it’s like to see Brooklyn Decker live in person.

Elsewhere, Mike and T talk about the big squirrel problem over in the UK, what we want for Christmas, and we even have some (bad) advice for anyone trying to buy gifts for a lady this holiday season.

And we answer your emails as usual — you can send those in to theshow@incrediblepodcast.com, or call us any time at 1-830-4-TURPS-4! We’ve got a few Christmas-y intros, but we can always use more, so if you want to record a quick mp3 and send us an intro, we’ll play it on a future show!

Thanks to Andrea Rene for joining us this past week, and stay tuned. We’ll be back on Sunday with our good friend Nicole Spagnuolo (and that means we might even hear from Mrs. Claus!), so we’ll talk to you then.

Episode 85 with guest Matt Thurston

The Latest Episode

 

Last week on the podcast, we had a nice chat with actor Matt Thurston, who’s been making a great series called Cliff Notes about a bunch of wacky bookstore employees. Matt and Mike and T talk retail, World of Warcraft (Matt’s also a frequent guest on Rawrcast and has hung out at BlizzCon with us), and how to put on a murder mystery.

We also talk more about what we’ve been playing lately — Mike and T continue to be big fans of OnLive, Mike’s getting into Magic, and the T is … getting drunk more often than not. Sounds like fun! And of course we answer your emails — you can email the show any time (and you should) by sending a note to theshow@incrediblepodcast.com! We’d really appreciate it, and we’ll answer whatever you ask, usually with a more-than-satisfactory response!

Enjoy the show (sorry it’s a little late, been a busy week), and we’ll be back on Sunday (tomorrow) as usual. Have a great Saturday afternoon!
