I thought the Game of Life episode was pretty entertaining. If you're really out of ideas, do another "tear a crappy classic board game apart" episode (I'm still a little curious about the Monopoly hate).
Also, Geeknights Experimental= Video recording of the crew playing Candyland.
I'd be interested in an mp3 file of a Burning Wheel session. I don't play RPGs, but for some reason I'd be interested in this.
We've recorded some, I don't know what Rym did with them. The thing is, they are many hours long, as is any tabletop RPG session. Editing and more space on libsyn would be needed to put one up.

Not to mention the last one we actually recorded was the first time we converted from D&D.; That would be damn painful to listen to. We didn't record the last two games which would have been far better to listen to (after much editing to get rid of the "hey where are the chips" and people talking about their out of game sex life.)
You guys could take one of those multi-hour sessions, or record a new one the next time a session is held, and split them up into a multi-part friday night experimental feed RPG lessons? With some comments from Scott and Rym after the 45 minutes of RPG'ing or something.
If you do a multi-hour RPG, even if everything is recorded perfectly, you have a catch-22 situation: 1. You have a 3-hour long recording where only 45 minutes or so of it will actually be worth listening to 2. You edit it and there is no actual storyline, just the players in some interesting situations
The best way around it is either to do a very casual, 30-45 minute, beer and pretzels RPG; or to purposely do a bad board game where the players are arguing about rules more than actually playing (and maybe some cheating going on).
Although, Scott does make a good point about actually buying the board game, unless you get some industry insider to send you crap à la Dave and Joel...
I find I quite enjoy listening to gaming season audio, uncut and unedited. It's all part of the experience and a great time sink for some long travel. You could always jig up a seperate (free) feed, megaupload, or a torrent to distribute it.
Military Madness for the TG16 (it's on the virtual console). Candyland is pretty cheap. We have this version. Have you guys ever heard of Hand and Foot? Something to try if nothing else. I'm sure you will get to it, I'd like to hear your thoughts on Super Mario Galaxy.
I'm sure you will get to it, I'd like to hear your thoughts on Super Mario Galaxy.
Scott said they will be doing it. I'm also excited for this review. I'm around 40 stars in the game and so far, this game has exceeded my expectations and gives me nothing but pure joy.
I'll just leave a lil' spoiler for something I lol'd at and thought "Hells yes!" (Mario figure skating )
I was just listening to the second half of the questions week, and Rym mentions how awesome pirates are....especially in the sky. Have you guys seen Skies of Arcadia? I played it when I first got my Gamecube, but sold it later. It was a pretty RPG, just there were too many awesome PS2 games that were coming out after I got it.

Awesome idea, fill out the experimental feed. *makes slogan*
