 ARG Netcast, Episode 71: The Three Wise Men? [72:34m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

It’s our second-to-last show of 2008, with special guest Steve Peters (Mysdirection). Co-hosts Sean C. Stacey (Unfiction, Despoiler) and Jonathan Waite (ARGNet) poke and prod at Steve about such things as cakes, iPhone quality and the art of the live event, our contribution to the continuing saga of Let’s Make an ARG. This netcast is stuffed with more good stuff than a turducken, so dig in!

On a more serious note, we encourage all of our listeners to consider registering as a bone marrow donor. Our friend Dave Szulborski has made great use of the cranes he received as part of the Folding the Wish campaign, and has asked that the ARG community consider making this potentially live-saving decision.

Happy holidays — we return on Monday, December 29th for our year ender!

It’s two weeks before Christmas
And we have something great
From Mr. Sean C. Stacey
And Mr. Jonathan Waite.

With these two settled in
For another netcast,
In comes Geoff “thebruce” May
A frequent guest from the past.

And lo’ and behold
Who’s that waiting in the dark?
Could it be? Yes it is!
GMD’s Brian Clark!

As the panelists begin
Conversations about games,
We ask Brian about Eldritch
Which he plugs without shame.

Geoff reports on the weirdness
Happening in Milwaukee.
We talk live to Mike Russo
About wives and hockey.

Later on, we’re still focused
On ARG making,
As Brian Clark gives us pointers
On phone numbers and address faking.

Mapmaker checks in
With a long, epic voicemail
He says a banner ad on ARGNet
Means more than a package in the mail.

And we wrap things up by wishing
All our listeners and friends
A pleasant farewell, until next time.
(One more before 2008 ends!)
