Recorded live in Second Life, the Hunter duo do all they can to avoid the show’s main topic: The Life, Times and Writing of Micheal Crichton. They can’t pass a chance to talk about Twilight (which was spurred by comments by Steven King), nor to talk a bit about WoW and achievments. Did you know Rorlins wrote a novel?

The pair talk about geeky presents they gave and got, and what they’ve been up to for the last 2 months. A bit of ranting about Northrend, a little talking about the new Patch, and some postulations for next week finish the show. As a correction, Rorlins will be making his SL live music debut next week, not this week, on 1/29.

The new fall season is underway! A few weeks in and here’s what the Elf and Dwarf have programmed into their DVR. Hits and misses abound as well as probably a few too many non-sci fi/ fantasy conversations. Oh, and there’s not much news so we subsituted a few minutes of married people bickering instead.
Standard Podcasts [78:36m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (727)After some reports from Kodath on the news, the Hunter Pair wrap up their review of their trip to DragonCon talking about star sightings, goofy trivia and what costumes they wore. The news included tidbits on the new White Wolf game, some Batman Comic drama and more inside info on the new WoW expansion.
Standard Podcasts [79:03m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (780)In their last podcast before Dragon Con, the Elf and Dwarf talk about the upcoming Sims 3 game, the new Harry Potter trailer and a new fanfic er book release. The topic of the week is about how to get the ideas to start writing your own campaign. In the mail bag they read some mail about how to get going in RP outside of WoW and on last week’s found on the forums topic of gaming and religion.
Standard Podcasts [84:19m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (1088)News this week includes comments about Wizards First Rule, the Batman Box Office hits, and comments about some upcoming TV shows. Then the topic of the week: The Elf and Dwarf review the AFI’s top 10 genre movies of all time. Finally the hunter pair revive Rorlins’ “Found on the Forums” to talk about religion and gaming.
Standard Podcasts [75:49m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (863)To make up for being off the air for a few weeks, the Elf and Dwarf brought a friend: none other than the author of Confessions of Part Time Sorcerer, a girl’s guide to D and D, as well as numerous Dragon magazine articles, and Wizards of the Coast insider, Shelly Mazzanoble. The hunter pair ask her about how the book came to be, some of her experiences working “the Mecca of Gaming” and what it’s like to sit on both sides of the DM screen.
Standard Podcasts [59:43m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (1113)Due to the recent storm that hit Michigan (and a neighbor who refused to call Ms. Digg before doing major landscaping) we’ve been both without power and internet until today. True to form we did get out a short conversation about geeking without power and how we’ve been surviving without email, the web, or WoW.
Standard Podcasts [45:19m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download | Embeddable Player | Hits (1149)Sorry folks, no show this week. Due to the massive storms that hit the midwest this week we are without power. Rorlins is cheating by blogging this from his desk in his classroom when he should be grading final exams. We will return to the virtual airwaves next week.
Why not use this week to check out the Wife Agro Podcast, or Mischief and Mayhem?
Or you can use this break to complain to all of your friends about how much you miss your weekly dose of Hunter Banter! Tell them how disappointed you were that you didn’t get to hear about the joys of balancing a marriage, multiple MMO subscriptions, a tabletop game and a newborn! Let them know how frustrated your entire week will be without your fix of book reivews, movie commentary and lots and lots of nearly useless statistics!
Then tell them how the Elf and Dwarf will be back next week, and how they can find the show themselves!
