- 013 | Ancient EgyptGet out the readin' glasses and put your bow tie on cause this is an intellectual episode. Eric Bricmont, son of a bonifide Archeoastronomer, joins us in a riveting conversation about Egypt, from pyramid construction to mummy curses. If you've ever lost yourself in an Egypt-related wikipedia article, give this episode a listen. You may find it sophisticatedly stimulating. And what's the deal with all the Ancient Alien shows on the History Channel. Really, History Channel, aliens?57 min
- 012 | As Seen On TVHave you ever taken great care when eating a bowl of Cap'n Crunch w/ Crunch Berries to eat all the yellow things first so you can enjoy half a bowl of pure Crunch Berries? This podcast is nothing like that. It's more like taking 11 boxes of cereal from the cupboard and mixing them all together into one giant bowl of suicide cereal. Part nutritious, part sugar coated, part downright pointless.46 min
- 011 | Nuclear BombThat's right. We're talkin' about bombs this episode. And not just any bombs, we're taking it straight to the top with the mother of all bombs. Who would have thought that while listening to your favorite podcast as you eat your Cheerios this morning that you would learn the delicate details of constructing your very own nuclear warhead? You didn't think this show was all about fun and games did you? Well I don't blame you because we kind of went off on a rant last episode about Zelda. Hey that's kind of a coincidence; last week we talked about the mother of all games, this week the mother of all bombs. Go figure.43 min
- 010 | ZeldaSo this episode, being our 10th, is kind of a big deal to us. What better way to celebrate it by discussing the biggest game of console history. And I mean that. Google it. Right now. Type "What is the best game ever?" into the google search field and read the answer: The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time. It is such a good game we decided to invite our close friend and official Zelda expert, Toni Hansen, to join us in praising the epicness that is this legendary N64 title. Sit back, put your hookshot down and give this episode a listen. If you've never played Zelda OoT, may this podcast press upon you the importance of experiencing such a masterpiece of a game, and urge you to drop a Benjamin or so on a Wii and download it for the price of a single Hamilton. You will not regret it.1 hr 3 min
- 009 | DinosaurWow. Have we got an episode for you! Denise Soden is back to school us on the topic of DINOSAURS!!! To add a little to the conversation, we watched the greatest dino-flick ever made: Jurassic Park (1993). So hold on to ya butts, this episode is both educational and entertaining.53 min
- 008 | Star TrekWe're back on track with a very special episode of No Format! This time we invite our friend Jeremy Commandeur on the show so he can school us in some Trek facts. Sorry, we didn't announce what we were going to watch during the last episode (we forgot to do a lot of things in the last episode...) but if you'd like, you could prepare yourself by watching The Best of Both Worlds, Parts 1 & 2, Star Trek, The Next Generation. Leave your popped collar and chinos at home cause we nerd out pretty bad in this one. Also, remember the gravity question we asked in Episode 6? We got an answer. And you won't believe it, we made it through this episode with out having to bleep anything Jason says!52 min
- 007 | StarcraftI'm gonna tell you right now, this was a train wreck. A conceptually good idea, gone bad. Real bad. So bad I'm not going to describe what happens. Hopefully this intrigues you to listen to it, but be warned, I told you it was bad. And it's not one of those,"he's telling us it's bad, but in the end, it will be so bad it's funny", sort of things. It's just an all around bad episode. The one good thing we get around to talking about is the bestest fast food restaurant in the world. Hope you enjoy. And believe me, we'll be back on track next week.34 min
- 006 | GodfatherIf you listened to us last week then hopefully you joined us in watching The Godfather, Part I. If you didn't listen to us last week, chances are, given you aren't Jason Hayes, you've probably already seen it. Have a listen to this episode to hear our impressions of the classic mafia flick. We also contemplate a classic physics problem and enlist the help of a celebrity amongst space nerds.51 min
- 005 | X-menWell, here we are, finally in the iTunes podcast directory. This week we discuss Jason's unreasonably large Ninja Turtle collection. Then, on a more serious note, we talk about building telescopes and the inherent flaws of spherical lenses. Go on, let your inner nerd out and enjoy this quality conversation in the comfort of your drivers seat.50 min
- 004 | Mt EverestAre you ready to learn about Wetenkamp family folklore, century old dead dudes, and free baby grand pianos? This week's episode discusses those topics and more. I really hope this is not your first episode of No Format, cause it's not our best. Hang in there and we'll be sure to entertain you next week as we continue to follow our motto of absolutely no ground rules. In fact, next week we will probably stake out a plot in the vast wasteland that is the iTunes directory, but for now try streaming Episode 4 right from the browser of your computer or, better yet, your mobile phone. If you don't want to depend on the airwaves, try control clicking (right clicking on a PC) the link below and download it.46 min
About No Format
From the publisher's feed
Trying to explain what this podcast is about would be like trying to teach grandma how to send an email. It seems easy enough at first but you'll soon find it an impossible task. No Format is not a…
nerd-cast; we're clearly two social, pleasant, good looking gentlemen (ep. 28). No Format is not a comedy-cast; we never joke about the topic at hand and take our jobs very seriously as distributors of internet content (ep. 15). No Format is not a videogame-cast; Josh has only beaten 6 out of 8 Zelda games and we rarely play videogames while podcasting (ep. 7). No Format is not a science-cast; the occasional episode on nuclear fission and mathematical proofs will appear now and then, but all together we are not great sources of information (ep. 11 & 39). And lastly, No Format is by no means a film-cast; we just happen to know someone who makes movies (ep. 27). It also just happens that we have excellent taste and never come to dissagreements on movies (ep. 42). So what would one expect from a typical episode? We don't really have a format. Chances are if you have a mustache, play(ed) with Ninja Turtles, own a telescope, hate ugly fonts, have a friend from Korea, enjoy a good scotch, have a favorite dinosaur, wished you could golf better, prefer the original theatrical Star Wars, or in general read Wikipedia articles at least 3 times per day, you'll probably find what you've been looking for all along in this, the No Format podcast.
