Witty Ranter
Witty Ranter is a bi-monthly roundtable discussion show where the guests are given the floor and the sky is the limit on discussion. Discussions will be mostly limited to MMOs and Online gaming, but if someone feels the need to unload on another online topic, well, as the title says, He who rants Loudest will be Heard. So come on in and see what everyone is so all fired up about!

In this episode, Adam gets Shawn from GuildCast, TabulaCast, and OhMyGodRealLife along with Jonathan from The Online Gamer's Anthology and Peter from The Addicted Gamer for a little Collective rumination on MMO's, as well as much silliness.  A pre-show apology: due to Peter recording his segment in the middle of a tornado, there may be occasional cows flying by while he talks.... or a slight buzzing noise.  Topics discussed this week include "Why does the MMO community need Podcasts?"  "Corporate MMO's: Friend or Foe to the non-professional podcaster?", and finally, the bulk of this show is our "How to start/make a Podcast", with suitably snarky and smart-assed commentary from four hacks who probably should be put in the podcasting gulag instead of pushing our knowledge on the rest of the world.  This is reinforced by the fact that our ramblings on how to make the show weren't even in order.  Listening a couple of times is highly suggested.  Enjoy!

In this episode, Adam reaches across the pond to pull some craaaazy UK folks who agreed to stay up super late to record.  Kami from CoMutiny, Guy Rix, aka Dathmar on the VirginWorlds Forums, and Urban.Mongral from Warp Drive Active all help Brent and Brenden explain why the environment in the UK is as good for MMO's as it is in the US.  Topics discussed include a very in-depth discussion on how our gaming cultures are similar and dissimilar, why High Speed Internet in the UK sucks, and Brent takes a trip in the way-back machine of his childhood to pull up a game whose title isn't meant to offend anyone. Seriously!!  Urban also brought up a discussion of why more game companies can't seem to do cool things like EVE's Alliance Tournament being covered by EVETV.  There's plenty of off-topic love for everyone, and Kami relates his best day ever at work in the outtakes.  Thanks to Coldheat for sponsoring the show!
