In the interest of getting more content and podcasts on the site, we’ve created new bite-sized episodes for your listening enjoyment! In Mighty Bites Episode 1, we discuss The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and its addictive nature, as well as Matt’s obsessive compulsive item management and my need to rush evildoers and bash them in the face with swords. Enjoy!

Things we learned during the recording of Episode 31 of GCPD: No. 1. As cool as it sounds on paper, It is not a good idea to have a Nerf gun war during the break: It makes for an exhausting second half of the show. No. 2. YouTube surfing, while good for morale, is inherently dangerous to productivity. And the most important lesson of all: No. 3. As far as internet fanboyism is concerned: “haters gonna hate.” That being said, we’re glad to be back with another entertaining and hefty sized episode of GCPD. So without further ado, reload your Nerf Maverick and let the games begin!

Topics Discussed this Episode:

• Matt’s Thoughts on Comic Book Men
  
• Did Archie Get Caught Up on Walking Dead? NO? DEAR GOD MAN, WHY?
• Our Take on the Playstation Vita
• Theft of Nicolas Cage’s Action Comics #1 to be Made Into Movie
• Penny Arcade Adventures OTRSPOD Episode… 3?
• Mass Effect DLC to add More Clarity to Explain Ending.
• EA Wins Worst Company in America Award from the Consumerist

& So much more! After the break we hit you with this week’s Supey Bats award winner and chime in on our updated playlists and pull-lists. Don’t forget to stick around after the close of the show proper for the GCPD Unplugged/Blooper goodness that only we can provide.

After a brief stop at Nook & Go for a bag of throat lozenges, GCPD is back and bringing you more of our special brand of geekery and tomfoolery from the world of gaming and comics. This episode was almost a lost episode twice over, as Matt’s voice was completely gone by the time we wrapped up taping, and yet another hard drive failure meant we had to find a backup.

This episode isn’t so much late as it is a journey into the past. It’s all the fun of time travel, without the dangers of erasing yourself or loved ones from reality! Come with us to a simpler time in which the Playstation Network was still down and E3 hadn’t yet occurred (along with Nintendo’s strange new hardware debut) and Tupac Shakur hadn’t yet come back from the dead. Well, the jury’s still out on that last one, but you get my point. Regardless, we found a ton of stuff to discuss about our favorite forms of media. But enough talk. Grab your Sonic Screwdriver and your copy of Gray’s Sports Almanac, ‘cause we’re going back in time.

• Joss Whedon Filming the Avengers Movie and the First Pic From the Set
• Spidey: Turn Off the Dark, Turns On the “bow chicka wow woww”

Diss Track: noun \dis,’trak\
A diss track or song (also spelled dis) is a song primarily intended to disparage or attack another person or group. While musical parodies and attacks have always existed, the trend became an increasingly common in the hip hop genre as part of the hip hop rivalry phenomenon.

You know it was coming eventually. Sony’s PSN troubles  goaded us into a show of rants and boiled over frustration. The service may have been somewhat repaired in the last few days, but as of this recording, we were all fairly hot under the collar and fed up with the whole “Playstation situation.” In general, there was a lot of anger to vent  on the comic and gaming industries at large, and we ended up dissing everything but the puppy dogs in this special episode of GCPD.

Topics discussed in this episode:

• We Weigh In on Sony’s PSN Situation
• Action Comics Superman “Renouncement Announcement”
• The lack of Puppy Dogs on the Show
• Dark Knight Rises not Filming in Chicago
• Alan Moore Hates Your Pull-list

And more! Also, we’ll be sure to post Bill’s uncut statement to Sony regarding the data leak in some form sometime in the future. It was so explative laden, we couldn’t keep it in the show proper.

Music Featured:  Architect 25′s “A Craftier Thief”, Revolution Void’s “Tree Tenants” and Katrah-Quey’s remix of Crown City Rocker’s “Simple”
