Soooooooo...how was your summer vacation? As you have probably noticed, we took quite a long break. However, summer is over so that means back to podcasting. Since this is actually our second attempt at recording this podcast, its quite a bit different than we originally envisioned. Instead of being a catch-up podcast where we talk about our summer, we decided to go drinking at CityWalk in Universal City and record an impromptu show instead. We still managed to talk about some big stuff though, so listen in while we talk about the iPhone 5, 3DS XL, Edgar's new Tamron lens. All in all, its good to be back. I know we disappear from time to time, but we still enjoy doing this and will continue to do so for as long as we enjoy it. I promise that if we ever do quit, you will know when. Until then, if you still like listening, just stay subscribed and eventually something new will download until we tell you the show is dead or we're dead ourselves.

Holy crap, yes, its finally time for our E3 podcast. Not sure how this one got away from us, but it's finally here. Since we spent a majority of our time at Nintendo, you're going to hear a lot about Wii U. However, we also took some time to run through a few other booths including Microsoft's, Disney, and Sony. Again, sorry for the lateness guys. I know most if this is pretty much old news, but thanks for hanging in there and we hope you enjoy.

So this week in Nerdblurb's, we talk about the newest Google Doodle and the recent Facebook IPO, which then gets us talking about our recent foray into the stock market. We also give an update on the ongoing Samsung v. Apple lawsuit and I give some quick impressions on Diablo 3. Finally, in Photography news, we talk about ETTR or "Expose to the right."

Two podcasts, two days. Yes, that's how we do. Anyhow, here we are with podcast 178. Fortunately, this one is much more recent and was recorded just last week. So join us as we get caught up on the week's topics and listen in as Edgar recaps his latest shady CraigsList deal. All in all, it's a solid show for our first one in a month and we're looking forward to recording again as we ramp up to our annual E3 extravaganza. Thanks for hanging in there guys. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

Holy crap guys, OK this time, it's all on Edgar. This podcast was actually recorded like a month ago, but Edgar wanted to time it with a video. Well, we know how that turned out. So here's the truth, I have noooo idea what we covered this episode because it was seriously recorded a month ago and we didn't take notes. However, I'm also going to post 178 soon since I have that file too, so I'm going to let 177 simmer for a bit on the RSS by itself. Enjoy.

So this week in Nerdblurb's, we talk about nVidia's new GPU and the upcoming MacBook updates. Then, in Apple/Hardware, we talk about the new iPad 3 and give our review. Finally, in Videogames, I give my thoughts on the PS Vita and give my impressions of the hardware and the launch games. Yes, that means I caved and bought one. I'm a hypocrite I know, but I'm a hypocrite with a PS Vita and it's awesome.

Anyhow, this week in Nerdblurbs, we talk about the big changes to Pirate Bay, used MP3 stores, and BT Junkie shutting down. Next up, we talk about Messages for OSX Lion, OSX Mountain Lion, and the iPad 3. Finally, we talk a bit about the PS Vita and 3DS circle pad. All in all, not a bad live podcast.

So this week in Nerdblurbs, we talk about Facebook's upcoming IPO, the Kindle Fire's massive markey share, and Warner Bros latest scheme to prolong disc sales. Next up, we talk about Apple moving forward with 802.11ac, what may be the last LCD viewfinder you'll ever need, and the most recent updates to Final Cut Pro X. Finally, in Videogame news, we talk about Mass Effect, Bungie giving up the last ties to Halo, and the rumored discount for downloaded PSVita games.

So this week in Nerdblurbs, we talk about Megaupload's megaproblems, Twitter blocking tweets by country, and Star Wars UNCUT! Next up, in Hardware News, we talk about the Alienware X51 and Intel's new plan to offer overclocking insurance. In Apple News, we talk about the current failure that is Evi and talk about how Steve Jobs wanted the Lytro camera in the iPhone. Finally, in Videogames, we talk about Nintendo's massive losses, no used games on the Xbox 720, and Steam coming to iOS.

No, that's not a mistake, this is podcast 172. Podcast 171 was recorded before Christmas and we forgot to post it, so that's on the way. However, for now we've got the fresh off the press podcast 172. Like usual when we come back from a hiatus, this one is a bit light on news. We do talk a bit about the OLED TV's shown at CES and MSI's Thunderbolt GPU enclosure. We also talk a bit about the recently announced iTunes U and the reasoning behind the surprisngly low pricing. Finally, we talk about the Steve Jobs toy that never was and get you caught up on what we've been up to.
