Braindead Radio Episode 36: I Don't Want to Miss a Thing

[Abraham Smashington]

Explain the factions, who should I hate?

[Captain Russ]

My answer is usually "everyone" and as such I'd suggest the Wild Card as being the most entertaining and fulfilling in this regard for the inaugural playthrough. The ending for the Wild Card is soooooo worth it. A big middle finger/helicopterin' dick in the major faction faces is priceless. Unfortunately, you will have to lean on either the NCR or Legion at one point, and the pros and cons of each are as such:

NCR are fucking everywhere, so being part of their One Man Wolfpack is to your benefit, though their missions are yawn-inducing twaddle.

The Legion endgame stuff is more entertaining in its variety, but the back-and-forth bullshit you have to put up with in terms of early fetch missions sours the experience.

As far as secondary factions, they all bow to your will in one way or another, so preference is down to how much of a bastard/MLK you want to be.

That said, fuck the Fiends. I like my drugs from the Khans, not those upstarts. The Powder Gangers can suck a Deathclaw phallus for bobbytrapping EVERYTHING in the early areas, so fuck them too.

Everyone else is fair game.

[Abraham Smashington]

Cool. I think that what my problem was. I had no idea who the fuck was "good", who was "evil" and who fucking just plain sucked.

YOU GUYS KICK ASS! BRING ON EPISODE 37

FUCK YES! This episode is awesome. MarTIN... JuaQINE...

Bedazzled, MONKEYBONE and The Mummy, so much WIN! Who doesn't want to go to Donky Kong Island? Too many good things to talk about!!!

"I don't go looking for trouble. Trouble usually finds me."
~Harry Potter (NERD ALERT)

So fucking awesome that I was mentioned in an episode! I feel so honored! Maybe I do have some wands in my closet. Best believe that we do some kinky things with that sorting hat too! HAHAHAHA

[Abraham Smashington]

haha. I KNEW IT!!

Just finished listening. Once again, you boys have raised the bar.

However, I must take issue with your comments about me.

I am a pussycat, Rob. You have no need to fear me. Unless you were slowing me down during a zombie apocalypse. Then... and only then, would we have a slight problem.

[patronsaintofcheeseburgers]

Once again, you two brought the goods; this episode had me rolling! Loved the video game countdowns from you and Ceej, the movie reviews (must give Darkon a rewatch), and just the general yukfest.

Great to hear the call-in from Vin, too (somewhere where there's snow and they speak English, though with a funny accent... I gotta go with your theory of him teaming up with Charlie Sheen fighting aliens, crew).

Bring on episode 37!

THIS

This was indeed a throwback to the 'Caust Days ("Edgy holocaust humor lulz indeed" Edition).

I could use more videogame talk in my Braindead Soup. What say you?

THIS...good stuff, as a non gamer it gives me an idea of shit that I would or would not play.

Again, another solid show. The sound effects were key. And I'll have to defend Ceej on the Arnold Palmer love...that shit is delicious, however I would never buy the tall boy version. Kudos!

[Mike]

Holy shit this episode reminded me to watch a bunch of shit! They keep on getting better, glad to see the move didn't completely fuck the audio studio!

[gravedigger]

Music cues are glorious in this one.

YES YES YES. "Them Minerals" during ME2 talk? YOU WIN 10 INTERNETS ON THIS DAY.

Great show, guys. It's a bummer to hear I'M NOT HERE isn't all that great. I think my expectations were pretty high for it so it's good to have them knocked down a bit.

[Abraham Smashington]

Thanks man! Glad the music was working during this episode. And yeah, totally was not a fan of 'I'm Not Here'. It pretty much failed on all levels for me.

[Ari]

Now don't go starting false rumors that I hate Troll 2. It's on my Netflix queue, so I haven't even watched it yet.


Freaked still sucks, BTW.

[Abraham Smashington]

Shit, did I say you hated Troll 2? If so, I apologize.

[Ari]

You said I probably do, along with Hackers and some other films. You really pounded the FAIL into me, but that made me call and leave a few messages for you fine folks.

I'm not finished with the episode yet, but I am really enjoying it.

[Abraham Smashington]

We just wanted to hear your sexy voice.

[Ari]

It's been far too long.
