Crave: Ep. 16: Where my baby daddy?

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 04:35:01 PDT

A fan-tastic subwoofer, a new MP3 player (remember those), and some sweet street art in Portland, Oregon that Mario-loving cyclists are sure to appreciate.

Crave: Ep. 15: Oceanic seduction

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 03:40:59 PDT

A human-powered car driven by a beatnik, an awesome garbage can made from repurposed garbage, and an adorably annoying alarm clock that is will provide endless minutes of drunken entertainment at your next party.

Crave: Ep. 14: Electric ladyland... of bacon

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 02:41:44 PDT

This week on Crave, there's a hidden euphemism in just about everything, but you'll have to listen for the juiciest bits.

Crave: Ep. 13: Gundam vs. Wolverphant

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 03:24:35 PDT

This week, Crave branches out onto our friendly neighborhood tech blogs to bring you a super fantastique, ultra huge, raver-friendly digital turntable thingie...and a bottle opener. Don't be too let down by that second one: it's over-priced and attaches to your bike, so it still has some cache. Also, Donald and Eric get extremely excited over a glorified statue, an electric Datsun leaves a Nissan GT-R in the dust, and a giant robot arm is put to good use. Plus, Jasmine squeals over an elephant with some monstrous dental work, and we take a look at a camera lens cleavage coffee mug.

Crave: Ep. 12: Evil creepy Casper baby

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 03:20:33 PDT

Dong Ngo pays a visit to Crave this week and brings with him a handy little gadget that justifies his drinking on the job. Also, we let a conversation on 3D camcorders descend into porn talk (naturally), and Eric scares the bejesus out of Jasmine with a creepy, limbless robot baby...or at least the thought of one. Finally, Donald whets our appetites with some Star Wars-themed kitchen toys that are bound to make your cookies and sandwiches more tempting, if not actually more tasty.

Crave: Ep. 11: Intergalactic House of Robot Pancakes

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:51:16 PDT

This week on Crave, Donald and Jasmine attempt to make due in the absence of the Eric Franklin, who should be awakening from his Nyquil-induced haze any moment now. The big news of the day is Apple's latest gadgets, which includes an iMac attack and the undeniably unique Apple Magic Trackpad. And of course, no Crave podcast would be complete without talk of robots and food...specifically one that makes food (sort of). Also, Japan develops some freaky-smart billboards, the military gets some super spectacular smart earplugs, and the police find a new non-fatal weapon. Finally, we soothe your eyes with some lovely 3D street art--no funky glasses required.

Crave: Ep. 10: Barbie likes to watch

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 02:56:20 PDT

On this week's Crave vodcast, we attempt to answer the pressing question of which one is creepier: a Barbie cleavage cam or machine-gun wielding security cam. Either way, a camera's gonna getcha. Also on tap is a wide array of robotic walking aids, from an even lazier version of the roller shoe to sweet bionic legs for the disabled and the military. Plus, Jasmine thinks a killer drone is cute, Donald geeks out on a Super Mario star tattoo, and Eric is just...Eric.

Crave: Ep. 09: Bendy bikes & music showers

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 03:21:55 PDT

What's not to crave about a pole dancing bike? We can think of a few things, actually, but it's still pretty cool. Donald, Eric, and Jasmine also have a go at a super simple phone for luddites and get very serious about George Lucas's neck fat. Plus, Jasmine wants to take a ride in GUSS, Donald has a massive crush on a limbless robot, and Eric wants to take a date to Burger King. Finally, a little bit of ear candy for the MP3 Insider holdovers with some knobtastic speaker furniture.

Crave: Ep. 08: Back to the Futurama

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 03:04:26 PDT

Eric Franklin once again invades the Crave podcast and is more than happy to provide his opinion on how unrealistic our latest Lego obsession is. Jasmine, on the other hand, is utterly unimpressed with the DIY power laces that aim to mimic the sweet Nikes from "Back to the Future II." But the tone turns hopeful when we get to Donald's army of beer-o-matic robots, and we're all a little taken with two sweet keyboards that take two totally different tacks.

Crave: Ep. 07: Go go gadget paper

crave@cnet.com (CNETTV.com) — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 03:50:30 PDT

Despite the fact that everyone else is talking about it, Donald and Jasmine can't help but be a little repetitive and froth at the mouths over Hulu Plus, an new app and premium service from the popular video streaming provider. And of course, no Crave podcast would be complete without a little robotic action, and we're particularly fond of Emily. Also on deck: a tiny hypercolor man and a DIY Hello Kitty gadget that is sure to send Japanese teeny boppers screaming for the hills.
