Podcast: The Tentacle Grape Episode

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 01:32:06 GMT

Digging back into the archives of "crap I should have done but kept putting off," here is the last non-convention-related episode we recorded in March. I don't even remember what we discussed, other than Mike brought some Tentacle Grape (http://www.tentaclegrape.com/) for us to try.

For those of you keeping score at home, that's 7 months old. And we've released two podcasts since then. Shame on me, I know.

Eat The Worm

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 04:58:03 GMT

Catching up. John and 15-year-old anime women. Legal woes of pix messaging. WoW jumps the shark? Everyone but Dylan agrees: Fallout 3 and Fable II suck. Tequila worm suckers. Wasabi tastes like bee stings. Second Life has a point? CAT EDIT! Playstation Home: beware of gay German dudes. Another round of XBox 360 vs. PS3. XNA: neat idea, but lots of crap. Porn spam on the work phone. Torgo is on vacation. Affirmative Action patch notes. Outliers.

Friendly Reminders for Black Friday Shopping

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 04:28:55 GMT

The Best Buy Incident. yourmomssexy@chainsawbuffet.com. Dylan fails at guerilla marketing. John on the First Amendment: "what the hell is your problem, motherf@#$er?" Sow the seeds of chaos! Most misleading coupon EVAR. Venom energy drink: it's a can that opens like a bottle! John is President John Henry Eden. I've got to go put a gun in my mouth now... I'm everything I hate. Bacteria porn. Eat more turducken.

Music: El Diablo by Countdown (http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/countdown)

We've Got Moxie

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 05:51:37 GMT

Activision sucks! Drink Moxie or I'll f-ing kill you. We'll all be dead soon. I was a dumb, dumb child. Candy corn soda is liquid Rock Revolution. We don't have listeners. PODCAST@CHAINSAWBUFFET.COM. Mike's done with rhythm games. Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives. Dead Space. Fallout 3. Fable II. Jen just killed the podcast. Nathan's cell phone. In the recession, there is no place for novelty soda. Folklore. Little Big Planet. Valkyria Chronicles. Cancelling World of Warcraft accounts. The Cloud--it's magic.

The Chainsaw Buffet Horror Picture Show

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 18:02:40 GMT

The crew plans out a cheesy home horror movie they're going to film the week before Halloween. "We typically don't script at all--we just do the general outline and ad lib." Mike's ninja movies. Bastardized Guitar Hero controllers. Voltron versus monster. Video podcasts? Scary Movie 4. More railing against Blue Dragon. Mana Energy Drink still tastes terrible.

Music: Monolithic Pillars by Monolithe (http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/monolithe)

Doom, Gloom, and Optimus Prime

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 06:20:44 GMT

By Chad's logic, we should shut down Chainsaw Buffet. Dylan breaks his caffeine fast. URNATION. Peelander Z coffee. Transformers Animated. Optimus Prime is not a firetruck nor is he a f**king gorilla. Warhawk: buy it for the Bluetooth headset. Burnout Paradise. EA, why do you love the terrorists? More Zune talk. Alestorm: pirate metal. Amazon MP3 rocks, iTunes sucks. The Christmas Clock. Dylan sucks at the musical taste. Stock market and economic crisis. Breast cancer awareness month. "I wish I had had a cool type of cancer--one that people like." The pink ribbon mafia. Should we do a cancer podcast? Pan's Labyrinth.

THE GALLON CHALLENGE: you have one hour to drink a gallon of milk, and one more hour to keep it down. This episode, we attempt the challenge while doing a podcast. Were we successful? Listen and find out.

Goofy-handed straight-chug style. The Gallon Challenge as part of Ninja Warrior: is anyone at G4 listening? Nathan loves The Force Unleashed but hates Dead or Alive. Let's give out all our passwords on the podcast! The Rock Band double-strum bass. Cartoon Network cancelling Toonami: this will be the second time Atlanta burns! Anime on Adult Swim... not so much anymore. Prizes, prizes, prizizes (offernotvalidanywhereever). Organic milk versus normal milk. Eureka Seven makes John barf. The Drunken Unicorn concert at AWA. Quaff. Peelander Red rides Charlie. The psychology of "Mad Tiger." Tsu Shi Ma Me Re: BILF material... "She has the devil in her, and I would very much like to meet that devil." Mike's new Zune. WE MOCK THOSE WHO CHALLENGE OUR PODCAST! Never assume a man does not have fire-breathing ninjas at his disposal. iPod and the Zangief-spinning-piledriver you have to do to use it. My PSP still services all my multimedia needs. "Save the tatas": the best anti-cancer slogan ever invented. The new Nintendo handheld: coming soon? Virtual Boy! "I am a liar, and I don't know who would have told you different." F**k Mega Man 9. CHEESEBURGER!

World of Braidcraft

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 03:25:09 GMT

Braid is not a game. Mana Energy Potion--now with horrible side effects! YOGU-TIMEU! Ginseng drink: a Lovecraftian monster in a bottle. Refrigeration drinking enhances flavor. The Gallon Challenge! Pre-order fights. Listener emails... from Russia. Time flows differently in podcast land. Digg, approve our podcast already. BRAID SPOILERS--what does it mean? Grenade down the pants. World of Warcraft is one of the worst offenders.

On a special two-part episode of the Chainsaw Buffet Podcast, we travel to Anime Weekend Atlanta to talk with The Man Power (http://www.myspace.com/themanpower) and Simon Young of The Slants (http://www.theslants.com/) about their music, bands, and interests (including, of course, anime). Having seen their shows and met them at MTAC this year, there were already some big fans among the Chainsaw Buffet crew.

The Slants are an Oregon-based band whose genre-defying music combines high-energy beats with sophisticated lyrics. Combined with their killer, fire-breathing stage shows, they're an unstoppable force of the music scene.

The Man Power: On Location from Anime Weekend Atlanta

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 05:00:00 GMT

On a special two-part episode of the Chainsaw Buffet Podcast, we travel to Anime Weekend Atlanta to talk with The Man Power (http://www.myspace.com/themanpower) and Simon Young of The Slants (http://www.theslants.com/) about their music, bands, and interests (including, of course, anime). Having seen their shows and met them at MTAC this year, there were already some big fans among the Chainsaw Buffet crew.

Hailing from Nashville, the Man Power is anything but country. In fact, if you said that to their face, I'm pretty sure they'd melt your face off with their killer otaku-flavored rock stylings, and then blow your mind with their pandemonium-inducing performances on stage. Kneel before the awesomeness that is the Man Power!!

Chainsaw Buffet Podcast: Mana Kills

podcast@chainsawbuffet.com (ChainsawBuffet.com) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 05:00:00 GMT

Milk and Bread! Summer Gases. Pussy-in-a-can. Mana SHOCK! Sporeacide. Irreducible complexity. Kill-a-mouse calculator. Old people. No animal shall wear clothes. Steven doesn't answer call from Tennessee. Pikachu trade rates. USA > Japan. Sarah Palin on Ann Coulter action. Jennifer Aniston like short men. EA takes Potter's Staff. Altas is your father. Spot it, do something else.

Turducken. Bulimic Kirby. Anorexic Fat Princess. Chrono Trigger is the best game ever! Aerith dies. King Captain Picard makes it so.
