Stay ConnectedConstantly Calibrating is a weekly topical podcast that focuses on the wide world of nerd/geek culture; Delving into both recent news stories, as well as discussions, debates and interviews related to what’s happening in our assorted fields (Gaming/Tech/Life).
A little bit of things, a fair amount of words, and a whole lot of stuff!
Dammit Brad, the name is Lobot!
Anyways, Josh wasn't able to make this week's episode due to a sudden arm injury (don't ask questions) so our intrepid team decided to discuss how we're currently living in the future. Seriously, have you seen the amazing tech that's been popping up as of late: hoverboards, solar highways, robotic prostitutes...well maybe not that last one yet. Our team takes a look at all of this, plus makes predictions on the future.
On today's casting of the pods, we discuss the present state of MMOs; looking at World of Warcraft, Elder Scrolls Online, EVE Online, and more. We also delve into the future of the genre, wondering what innovations need to be made, including thoughts on the upcoming Everquest Next. (There may also be some MMO nostalgia for Everquest & Star Wars Galaxies thrown into the mix.)
Before that, we hype up this weekend's Issue Zero, tiptoe around the recent Star Wars leaks, and ponder why Warner Bros. have decided to ejaculate movies all over the next 6 years.
This week we had the distinct pleasure of featuring Kerry Shawcross & Miles Luna of Rooster Teeth on the show. In addition, today also coincides with the one-year anniversary of the last time I interviewed them both together; I swear this is 100% a coincidence.
During the interview we discuss Red vs Blue season 12, the on-going volume 2 of RWBY, listen to an angry Jaune Arc voiceover, and discuss balls. Essentially a standard interview experience with Kerry & Miles.
Prior to the interview we look into more space travel news, plus we promote the Kickstarter for Women vs Cosplay!
As society develops, we become more and more reliant on the assorted tech surrounding us at any given time. This idea crystallized for Constantly Calibrating host Josh this past weekend, when a major Internet & TV outage caused him to reevaluate his entire life; no joke. As such, this week Team ConCal addresses the growing concern of our reliance on various technologies on a day to day basis.
In news we talk Tetris and money guns, because why not be a bit potentially hypocritical, right?
LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE!
Sorry, excitement got the better of me today. Seriously, listen to this episode immediately to hear an outstanding conversation between Josh, Brad, Justin, and guest Aris Juson. We talk about Aris' work in social media and acting, as well as discuss what it takes to grow a fanbase online. There's discussions of life, loves, and plenty of things Destiny.
Of course we start things off with some news, featuring talks of Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China, a follow-up to Sleeping Dogs, Blizzard cancelling Titan, Final Fantasy XV, and Deadpool getting a film.
This week we head into part 2 of our 3(?)-part look at the important films that helped shape us into the people we are today. Joining us in place of Brian this week is Ryan Firster who shares with us many things that readily flow forth from him.
In addition we address the Microsoft buyout of Minecraft developer Mojang and the latest Star Wars rumors.
Over the last 25+ years, The Simpsons has formed a cultural identity nearly incapable of being rivaled. Regardless of which era you love the most (seasons 2 through 12 in my case), The Simpsons is wrapped tightly into our collective psyche. That's why on this episode of Constantly Calibrating we decided to delve into our favorite video games, episode, and even characters from the long-running series.
Before that you'll of course find some news on our recent Microsoft Store excursion, Microsoft buying Mojang?, the anniversary of the Dreamcast, and new news out of Apple.
Josh has gone missing, but filling in for him this week is Brad who rises to power like a fiery phoenix of hostitude.
On the show the trio discusses the new Nintendo 3DS and what we know of it so far, Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell, new Games with Gold for September, and resurrect the long forgotten "Current Affairs" segment from yesteryear of Constantly Calibrating.
That plus some thoughts on the recent iCloud issues, pathetically called "The Fappening" on the Internet, on this week's podcast!
This week's topic is "Guilty Pleasures in Entertainment". Josh, Brad, Justin, & Brian discuss what makes a guilty pleasure, and why people shouldn't feel guilty about them. Things then shift into discussing our own guilty pleasures and why we're so infatuated with them.
We also delve into the Amazon/Twitch.TV deal and what it means for streamers, Dragon Age Inquisitionmultiplayer, a Pokemon fighting game, and Mario Kart DLC! Plus, is Full House getting a sequel show?
Constantly Calibrating this week delves into the world of geek culture and what that means to us. This of course is focused mostly on this year's Geekie Awards, which Josh attended and felt was a complete let-down. Find out why in this episode.
Prior to that we take a look at why Josh is cancelling his The Sims 4 pre-order, get informed on Warlords of Draenor, ponder Star Wars on blu-ray, and prepare our anuses for The Simpsons marathon.
