PodCulture 191: Geek Trek Online
Their phasers are set to “awesome” this week. Get ready for Star Trekking across the internet!
Adam opens this week with his busy week at work and playing the Star Trek beta. Glenn is caught up with shows that are now back from their break. They’re loving Chuck, Supernatural, and Christina is hopelessly in love with Walter on Fringe. The boys eagerly await Lord of the Rings on blu-ray, and Christina is enjoying the Fringe bloopers. Glenn isn’t ready Prestige again in Modern Warfare 2. Christina has had her fill of the long days at work, and had a most bogus experience at the hospital. Glenn hasn’t been able to fly because of the fog, which leads Adam and Christina to geek about the gorgeously English weather.
Brad and Adam (and Christina, a little bit) have been playing the ghe’tor out of the Star Trek Online beta. Glenn and Adam try to convince Christina to watch all the movies, and she concedes for the love of Stewart and Nimoy. Both Adam and Brad have pre-ordered it through Steam, and discuss the extra goodies it will include. Being a total MMO noob, Brad is learning the ropes via the Star Trek ranks. Adam finds out the multiplication properties of Tribbles, and Christina still thinks they should be used as currency. Adam has played the beta for Star Wars Galaxies and the Lord of the Rings MMO, as well as having dabbled mildly in World of Warcraft. In his geek-honored opinion, he worries about interface issues, but looks forward to how the game will grow. They talk about some of the funnier glitches, and some of the nods to cannon characters. Despite being a World of Warcraft genius, Glenn has not signed up for the Starfleet. He and Adam talk game mechanics, and he sways toward picking it up. Christina knows nowt of Star Trek beyond the appreciation of Julian Bashir hotness and Troi hair envy. Still, she enjoys the gorgeous graphics, and enjoyed dipping her toe into the pool of character creation. Brad talks about his character’s visit to Deep Space 9, and they all look forward to future updates. Brad talks about the various subscription packs and options. What do you think? Would you take the chance on a lifetime subscription to a MMO? Give Christina suggestions for a hobby now that Brad will be warping to sector Trek now!
In closing, the quartet is coming down from sugar highs, and Christina is ready to hit the sack. Her final thought asks for good things to watch, asks for book suggestions to listen to on her daily commutes. Glenn talks about WoW and Jeeves, and the gang tries talk him into signing up for Star Trek Online. Adam entreats us to watch Chuck, and Christina geeks a bit about the Chuck app for the iPhone.
Our Fillion-tastic promos come from Castlecast and The Signal!

Spoilers, they are a’flyin’! If you have not seen the last half of The End Of Time, please keep this episode on your hard drive until you have!
Christina does her best to recap the episode, and the boys fill in the gaps when she’s at a loss. She has nearly decapitated her Spike puppet during the tense show, and everyone in the room needs an adult beverage. They talk about special effects, character metamorphoses, and just rewards. Adam calls a character a dumbass, Brad appreciates hotness, and Christina will be picking up shards of broken hearts in the office for weeks. Is it a just ending to five years? Do they feel cheated?

PodCulture 186: The End of Ten – Part A
Time Lords, Companions and Tin Dogs, we welcome you to a special episode of PodCulture.
Brad, Adam and Christina open this special episode with chat of their holidays! Adam spent the festivities weekend with his family, while Brad and Christina enjoyed a quiet Christmas. Adam and Christina agree that giving presents is so much more fun than receiving. The geekiest thing he got was the Doctor Who Visual Dictionary from one the siblings he got hooked on Who, and he gave them Whovian presents in return. Brad has a hard time picking his geekiest present, but it must include his Time Lord box of goodies from Christina. She picked almost everything out on Zaniahz.com. It included the set of Time Squad figures, The Art of Destruction novel, a Tosh Torchwood figure, and an autographed photograph of David Tennant and Freema Agyeman. To celebrate both the New Year and the new Doctor, she surprises Adam with a t-shirt from ThinkGeek.com, with the Tardis on it, that reads “You Never Forget Your First Doctor”.
SPOILER ALERT! We take no prisoners, we keep no secrets. If you haven’t watched part one of The End of Time, and wish to remain spoilerless, please consider keeping this episode until you’re ready to geek fully with us! Don’t worry, we’ve got the Tardis, we’ve got time.
Christina gives her best shot at a synopsis of part one, while the boys tap The Master’s tattoo, singing the praises of Bernard Cribbins and June Whitfield. The trio discusses what regeneration means for an audience, their views of Russell T. Davies’ treatment of the tale, and what it all means for the Doctor. Adam shares his theory about what could have happened, what should have happened, and what his hopes are for part two. Christina questions the other companions, and throws out her impossible wish for Donna and Romana. Could she possibly love John Simm any more? Brad begs the question of which companion’s mom is scariest? Give us your thoughts? Adam talks about the emotion between actors and how that comes across on the screen. Tell us your regeneration story? Which Doctor was your first Doctor? Tell us who you’ve hooked to watch with you? The three talk about aspects of actors playing the Doctor and who they have loved along the way. As they close, Christina grasps desperately at the mic so she doesn’t have to see the end, but alas, the show must go on…
Our special musical guest for this episode is Chameleon Circuit with their song: An Awful Lot of Running from their CD Chameleon Circuit.

We welcome Andy back in to the studio for our 4th Anniversary Special!
Adam is waiting with all the patience of a kid on Christmas Eve for his new tv. He tells us about caving with his sister, which is neither for the thin of character or stout of body.

What is a birthday party without games? Andy begins our gaming segment with Modern Warfare 2, and Left 4 Dead, and lets slip that Assassins Creed may be coming from Santa. He is still playing City of Heroes/City of Villains, but has given up the ring on Lord of The Rings Online. Christina takes a moment to thank Kevin from Candywriter.com.

For the great service Christina had, Brad had a bad turn with a Razor Lycosa keyboard he bought.
