Quinn’s been doing something funky with goats, Dave talks toasters, we give more love to LEGO and the Beatles once said, “Love is all you need.” MIIIB, Marvel on them new fangled com-pu-tars and Hannibal is Thor’s father? Setting thrusters to maximum.. Look ahead, more Courier rumors! And a hand-mounted flame thrower! All this and a lot more craziness on this week’s DTL.

Dos Time Live – 62 – Quantum Underpants

scott@dostimelive.com (DosTimeLive Studios) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 03:27:35 +0000

On a very fabulous episode of DTL: Dave talks about Marvel (or is it Miracle) Man. We crawl inside a Tauntaun and watch bullets hitting stuff set to the totally fab tunes of NPH. Quinn brings us more Nikon news, a gorgeous Panasonic and a nostalgic Polaroid. We bring on the hate in the tech segment with the usual array of iPhone news and a very long discussion on the merits of e-book readers. Once again, Sean unleashes his inner sci-fi villain. And to conclude, we f***in’ love quantum mechanics. To find out what the f*** I’m talking about tune in to this week’s very long episode of DTL.

This week it’s the battle of the comic reviews as Dave takes on Sam in “COMICS REVIIIEEWWWS!” Nerd cola will NOT fuel your trip to Orlando. Quinn has a hands-on review of the projector cameras and some oh so secret previews from the land of Pentax. Stuff gets standardized! And, well, we didn’t exactly say every single little syllable but it’s close enough… And what will you fight off the hordes of zombies and Cybermen and robots with? A DIY railgun! Yeah, that’s right! All this with a dose of what we would like to believe is professionalism in this week’s DTL.
