GWC Podcast #83

…and I’ve seen everything already…LOL

segway in progress - stand by…segway initiated…

  • Leon!! You are indeed the frakkin MAN!!! Well played sir!

  • Yeah Starbuck was mean to Kat - but remember that when she goes, she wants her pic right next to her. Best stick to have ony our wing. I think she was mean becuase Kat really was just that good and Starbuck was more dissapointed than angry

  • Totally agree Chuck - Adama again shows why he is not just a great leader but a genuinely good person. Going to Kat the way he did and just being there. No blame. no anger. Just being there. It was one of the mmore moving moments of the series.

  • Sean…green chick dude. pick the green chick :smiley:

  • Agree w/Chuck - Kat may have been grating from time to tiem (Scar to me most notably…) but wow she was HOT. Audra you can talk about Lee’s towel scene - I’m more into Kat mooning and towel scene. and Dee has an amazing ass…and everything else.

  • heh heh heh Magna doodle radiation bands…sweet. Very common at the underground raves…near Chernobyl

  • Cavil gross > radiation sickness gross? Does that mean Cavil gross >= zombie gross? Or is Cavil gross infinite in gross-osity? Audra is just fighting those feelings for Cavil…it’s ok Audra. We won’t lose respect for you if you admit your undying love for Cavil…tease you endlessly maybe :smiley:

  • Anders not having a job - ROFL!!! And what happens…Starbuck is so tired of coming back to the room adn seeing him play Mass Effect – SHE gets HIM a job.

  • Dang Chuck…mistating Emilys opinion in her dreams…tat’s kinda messed up ! Poor Emily…LOL

  • Chairspread - ROFL!!! They probably have a “Head On” type product for that. ;D

you guys are awesome…

So say we all

Just one thing about the Knight Rider discussion. I agree that a Mustang probably isn’t he greatest choice for KITT, personally the best choice for KITT would be a slightly modified Bugatti Veyron. But that would be re-e-eaaallly[/Dr Cox] expensive. It certainly should be something a little sleeker maybe even an Aston Martin DB9 in black. There are many options. But let’s not forget the coolest thing about the new KITT. It’s voiced by Will Arnett, I mean COME ON! That alone makes it worth seeing, not that I would miss it anyway.

And yes Patrick Stewart is one of the coolest guys in the world. He’s brilliant in American Dad. The episodes he is in are better than the ones without him, although I enjoy American Dad anyway.

They could have used a Camero for Kit, it worked for Bumble Bee and it is basically the same car as a Trans Am.

Space 1999 - I remember that show- I actually had the strange Eagle 3’ model toy ship they flew around in (More like a flying building tiped on its side with four landing feet)

Great podcast as always! Sorry to hear you sounded down about the Mass Effect-effect Chuck. Personally, I am glad to hear you all talk about whatever the frack you all feel like talking about, because hey, not like there has been a lot of new BSG material lately.

About Kat, I guess I will go ahead and be the jerk here. I found her incredibly annoying and not all that attractive. While I will admit her death in “The Passage” was very moving, I still don’t miss her. Yes I know her whininess and sarcasm makes her a more interesting character—not some card board cut out—but still, she seriously rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it’s just me. Which is strange because I feel the same way about Dr. House, yet I also love the characters of Dr. Cox and Starbuck.

Oh, and big props to Leon. Youre geek card should be stamped with “super-elite-prime-extra deluxe edition”

Yeah Chuck I agree: if you want to bang-on about Mass Effect go ahead. I bought it over the weekend and, 6 hours in, I am only just starting to delve into the complexities of this game.

As far as Kat goes, she had a bit too much of the FIGJAM’s about her for my liking. Don’t get me wrong, Starbuck has too, but she’s earned the right over years of training / fighting, and this has been recognised at the command level.

So…if Arthur Fonzarelli had a child with Frank Poncherello…the child could be Poncherelli.

Meh. I can’t play Mass Effect on my iPhone.

Curses! A pox on Australia’s second rate cellphone system.

But then, I bet you haven’t got blue boobies on your iphone either.

He does now. (Yes, that’s what all the fuss is about.) But by watching the link above without playing the game, he’s missing out on a) the best sci-fi story in a game ever, b) the rest of the relationship you spend a 40-60 hours forming, and c) some really, really cool gameplay.

Still, he does have teh boobies. Just sayin’.

Well I am not done the podcast, in fact I don’t think I have even finished the part where they are discussing whether Kara slept around.

Now I am a huge Kara and Lee fan, but I think that it is at least implied that Kara sleeps around. Yes we have only seen her hookup with 4 people in the show (Zac, Baltar, Anders, and Lee), but it is referenced a couple times that she has slept with more then that. Granted there was not creepy, not Leoben too, but I am not sure if we should count him.

The first thing that comes to mind is when Lee and Anders are in the tent on the Algae Planet and Anders pretty much confirms that he knows she has cheated on him says to Lee “So you think you are the first?”. And isn’t she the one willing to cheat on Anders with Lee?

Now I will say that of the 4 people she has slept with I believe she cares for on some level three of the four (excluding Baltar, of course). And if you think about it hasn’t she slept with more people that they showed us on screen then any other character:

Lee: Shevon, Dee, Kara (and implied Gianne)
Chief: Sharon (Boomer), Cally
Balter: Six, Kara, Deanna
Helo: Sharon (Athena)
Ellen: Tigh, Cavel
Kara: Zac, Baltar, Anders, Lee, not-Leoben

Now none of this means I don’t love the character, but I kinda agree with Chuck and Sean - Kara sleeps around, they have showed us that the most and implied it even more.

What…?

40-60 hours…?

Better get me a good divorce lawyer.

“So Mr. X…your ex-wife has accused you of an affair!”
“umm well not really”
“Explain yourself”
“Well there’s this woman on the computer…”
“Aha-so it’s porn then”
“well not really…but she does have blue boobs…”

Sean-in the choice of a Transformer or a woman-what if it were a female transformer (Arcee anyone?)

I thought you were joking there, but hell, there “really” is such a thing as a female transformer… :smiley:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_Transformers

OMG. That is just BAD! :smiley:

I read that they were trying to get her in the movie too but because of budget reasons they couldnt afford it but they made a toy for her not sure if its the same person but she is a motorcycle now.

Introducing Poncherelli

the blue butt isn’t half bad eitehr

Can;t believe some folks are freaking out about this. You see more skin in an episode of Vegas…

“Terminator 3 = Smokey & the Bandit 3”!!! As Homer J. Simpson says, “It’s funny because it’s true!”

Sean’s brother, Rhys, and Reese, that raises the bar on what may be considered “awesome.” Total genius.

The Onion AV Club has a regular feature, “Ask the AV Club,” in which readers write in with random half-remembered snippets of information about half-forgotten books, movies, TV shows, etc. And the staff track down what they’re talking about.

http://www.avclub.com/content/feature/ask_the_a_v_club_january_25

Interestingly, the Onion writers say they’ll often have a cluster of people asking roughly the same question, from all over the place, at the same time. It’s all part of the collective unconscious (sic, see http://youtube.com/watch?v=X4QKiYar9pI ), I guess.

Random tangent: Starship Imagination is cool, but what about The Great Space Coaster?

And if anyone’s a new reader, with a temporary login, and you need a handle, feel free to use “The Great Space Toaster.”

And, taking the devil’s shoulder here, if there’s, what, about 41,000 people left after the Cylon extermination, then Starbuck has slept with about .0000975 percent of the human race. And I say that without judgment: If a guy had slept with .0000975 percent of the race, his buddies would think he’s awesome.

Also, I’ve just inadvertantly begun to demonstrate what people will do when faced with the task of writing. Better straighten up the desk a little before I get cracking…
