If you haven't heard, we've upgraded our equipment to bring you this podcast in stunning HD. We say that we're going to get this out because we're lean and mean and just the two of us. nbsp;Dave is trying to get elected and Willie is, well..., not here. Topics: Current college football The Apple announcement Lost - sort of. First off - some college football. nbsp;Basically we diss on the OU "Shouldn't It Be UO" Sooners because they somehow pay off manage to get ranked #1 in the initial BCS poll. nbsp;Apparently the computers like the Sooners while humans prefer Ducks. nbsp;And ducks. nbsp;Because, really, who likes cheaters... We try to figure out the BCS computer rankings. Past Rankings x Present Rankings / Future Rankings + pi (not the dessert) + the historical rankings of the school x the amount of money the school could make the NCAA= Strength of Schedule Done. nbsp;Boom. Now to OState. nbsp;We throw around a bunch of stats that make us sound competent. nbsp;EJ then goes on to prove to Chris several of his points - how Holgerson was actually the OC at Houston; how the Cowboys are more passnbsp;efficientnbsp;and throw down the field better than Hawaii and Houston; while OSU has had some great athletes at QB, they've never really had a pure passer that could pinpoint the ball until Weeden; and how Bobby Reid makes us sad. Moving on from college football to college football babies - we give Lane Kiffin entirely too much airtime - as any is too much. Now, This Week in Cowboy Football! Welcome to America's Largest Homecoming Celebration: OSU takes on Nebraska for probably the last time in the regular season. nbsp;We again throw around all kinds of stats to try and prove that the Cowboys will win the game without taking the field.

Hosts EJ Hayes, Willie Hayes, Chris Armstrong, andhellip; Dave Bondhellip; eventuallyhellip; Since it takes us more than 6 months to get these shows out, all of the technology news is waaaay outdatedhellip; Especially with the cell phone market the way it is. Wersquo;ll start off with the Blackberry Kickstart ndash; a RAZR/BB hybrid. And Dave decides that wersquo;re good enough for him to comingle withhellip; Back to the Kickstart, which is actually the flip BB, aimed at the mass market. We run through the boring specs which have already been doubled by the new versions. Look at the monkey instead. Willie interjects with Anecdote #1: His father-in-law bought a BB, even though he doesnrsquo;t have a computer or an email address. He bought it, however, so that he can email and text his kids, which he apparently does successfully. Nice ndash; albeit a little premature. EJ adds that he uses his BB instead of his computer to do email, even though hersquo;s at his computer. After the short interruption, we discuss how Blackberry should market their products so that they have more mass appeal. Hopefully RIM will listen to us. We have GREAT suggestions. http://crackberry.com/blackberry-kickstart-8220-smartphone-review Next up: BATMAN!!! POW! ZONK! KA-CHOW! http://movies.nytimes.com/2008/07/18/movies/18knig.html?ref=movies Despite Willie not having seen the movie, we talk about it, without spoiling it for him. Chris offers up his one-word review: TheAnimatedSeriesGrownUp. HA! We then decide that the animated series was the Dick Tracy of our day. Instead of talking about The Dark Knight, we end up talking about Batman: The Animated Series. We also agree that Two-Face was probably the best villain in the animated series. We canrsquo;t help but reminiscing about our childhood and talking about our favorite characters and episodes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_the_animated_series Moving on, again, since Willie hasnrsquo;t seen The Dark Knight at the time of recording: Christian Bale beats his mother and sister. EJrsquo;s theory is that Bale couldnrsquo;t get out of Batman persona. ldquo;I am Batman!rdquo; ldquo;Christian, come down off the TV, man.rdquo; ldquo;No! I am Batman!rdquo; http://omg.yahoo.com/news/bale-asks-for-privacy-in-assault-allegations/11227 Besides the fact he couldnrsquo;t stop being Batman, he was also a psycho in American Psycho (and an American ndash; even though hersquo;s from England) and a FREAKING NEWSIE!!! THE MAIN NEWSIE! But definitely see The Prestige. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144084/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104990/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0482571/ Chris didnrsquo;t remember the jacked-up-ness of Batman in American Psycho, though Batmanrsquo;s jacked-up-ness in Newsies is forever seared in his mind for reasons totally unrelated to the film. Fortunately, Batmanrsquo;s performance in The Prestige totally redeemed himself. NOTICE: Wersquo;re still working on bluenotestudios.com. Seriously. EJ then busts out a great impression of Heath Ledger as the Joker in The Dark Knight. The relationship between solidroots.com and bluenotestudios.com is the relayed in no uncertain terms. Also, the history of Blue Note Studios and the inspiration is conveyed. Next NCAA Football 09: Not for the Wii. No high-def + crappy controller + low processing power + gimmicky interface = not impacting the game. Not impacting the game = dudes that arenrsquo;t into gaming + chicks = the casual gamer And we reminisce about Madden days of yore (and we realized that the reason he brought up the topic was so he could relive his dominance, particularly at Dave's expense).nbsp; What kind of gamers are we? Dave is the Bills, Willie is probably the Sooners (can play when it doesnrsquo;t count, but canrsquo;t finish up when it counts), Chris is creative type ndash; out of necessity, and EJ is Bill Parcells (controls everything).

Willie seems to perhaps question the efficacy of the "Pickens Plan" for solving the nation's energy problems. During the ensuing discussion of the potential of wind power, E.J. takes the opportunity to make a dirty joke. Willie keeps it going. Chris provides his silent, tacit consent to the filth. Chris introduces the inherent contradictions about T. Boone faced by many fans of Oklahoma State athletics (and of affordable gas): loving his donations to the school while distrusting the control that comes with it; appreciating his call to action on the energy issue while distrusting his motives.nbsp; But what else would one expect? EJ thinks wersquo;re going to keep our vision on this story as it unrdquo;windrdquo;s.nbsp; Stay tuned for further details.nbsp; www.PickensPlan.com ldquo;1.21 Gigawatts!" In other news, crazy monkey grass is creeping in from Canada, destroying slinging metal things and edger attachments all over the north! ldquo;They donrsquo;t call me lsquo;The Edgersquo; for nothin'" Willie passes along a way for you to tell when one is going to die and whether you'll die of a horrible disease or not.nbsp; For more information, check your genome at home with PCR and cloning machines.nbsp; All available via a USB connection.nbsp; Willie also thinks it's fun to pee on a stick to see if you have a "mutant genome in your genes" (or jeans). EJ next brings up how South Park gives hope for all of the nerds out there that want to be superheroes in stopping terrorist attacks.nbsp; We're not sure what episode of South Park gives the "how-to" but there's one out there.nbsp; Trust us.nbsp; Using Google Earth, Myspace and podcasts, you can stop your 4th grade classmates from blowing up the world too! "They don't even say 'search for it on the Internet,' they say 'Google it'" Where did Google come from?nbsp; What does "google" mean?nbsp; How does Google make so much freaking money?!?!nbsp; Well, apparently it can all be summed up in one word: Ads.nbsp; Or is there something more sinister going on?nbsp; Dave joins in and give us 41 chapters worth of conspiracy to throw Google in the middle of international intrigue and cover-up. Dave believes Google is very intrusive and this is view is that Google will be (if not already) a tool of Big Brother. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_on_foreign_relations http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_Group http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemian_grove http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trilateral_Commission http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Birch_Society http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Extraordinary_Gentleman For Dave's "Currently Reading" list, besides the above, check out Amazon here. "You can get this podcast around the world!" "Oh, I'm down the rabbit-hole baby." You're now introduced to our very early reports on MobileMe, the Apple product that stole its logo from Windows Me. "What if the cloud rains?nbsp; What if they hack into the cloud?" Dave proceeds to tempt us with, not cereal, but a "frozen thing."nbsp; Yet, he doesn't share at all...nbsp; Yet, we're keeping our other eye on the Google/Illuminati connection. By the way, Dave is wrong, it's only been 2 months since the movie has been released, not 3.nbsp; Not 3, Dave. A discussion ensues about how/why the movie was filmed.nbsp; IMAX has a 6-inch negative while using 6-feet per second of film.nbsp; A bunch of stuff about "dumbing-down" and something about a "Blue Ray."nbsp; In casenbsp;you didn't notice, Chris zones out.

LIve and direct from The Blue Room in Edmond, OK, Chris and EJ, and later Dave, are all in studio.nbsp; Speaking of the Blue Room, itrsquo;s actually a blues club in Kansas City.nbsp; We couldnrsquo;t find a link to the actual picture EJ has, but this is close enough. ldquo;I thought he was going to punch her in the face!rdquo; The Fist-Bump Heard Arond the World. Right up there with ldquo;The Butt-Slap Heard Around the Worldrdquo; or ldquo;The Boobie Grab That Sank 1,000 Ships.rdquo;nbsp; Obama breaks new ground in congratulatory celebrations.nbsp; Republicans are already calling it a "terrorist jab."

Herersquo;s the ultimate hypermiler Wayne Gerdes.nbsp; Also known as Wayne ldquo;Get Outta My Way, Irsquo;ll Run Over You Before I Buy Gasrdquo; Gerdes.

American student James Buck used Twitter to bail himself out of an Egyptian jail.nbsp; Talk about your ultimate bail bond. Unfortunately, we get off on the topic of whether itrsquo;s actually possible to ldquo;tweetrdquo; while being arrested by Egyptians.nbsp; Herersquo;s EJ's very scientific experiment. Back on topic, Mr. Buck tries to free his translator. Again, too bad we get back onto Twitter.nbsp; We so perceptively point out that it could be nicely used by cult leaders. "Don't Tweet Me Bro!" Speaking of tasing, that's what she said.nbsp; The LG Vu is 3" long, er..has a 3" screen.nbsp; It's reached that awkward stage where it wants to ask out the girl, but the quarterback of the football team iPhone, is flirting with her by her locker, even though he doesn't really like her like the Vu does. In the background is Google, trying to take over the world.nbsp; "What are we going to do tonight, Google?"nbsp; "Same thing we do every night.nbsp; Try to take over the world." "Google's starting to show some of their cracks" "Aren't there, like, anti-trust laws." EJ and Chris carry on a Twitter conversion whilst podcasting.nbsp; Oh how connected we are. "I always TiVo Lost on my Cox DVR, blow my nose in a Kleenex made by Puffs Plus, and drink a Coke called Dr. Pepper." "I recently took my Facebook off." "You have 2 options, 'Men,' 'Women,' or blank." "George Bush created Facebook." "I'm about to put my nerd hat back on." Our Lost discussion gets into the season finale.nbsp; First, what happened to Locke?nbsp; How did he die?nbsp; Will the island bring him back to life?nbsp; What's up with Ben getting back to the island?nbsp; Are Saywer and Juliet Adam and Eve?nbsp; Why were the graphics so cheesy to Dave?nbsp; Will Al Gore blame global warming on why the ocean's went lower, in reality, it's the island moving in space/time?n...

Intro: Our unofficial Indiana Jones review (or un-review) and why Chris refuses to see it (hint: it has to do with Harrison Ford being old). Plus, EJ thinks Harrison has some big guns. ldquo;Irsquo;m in the industryhellip;rdquo; What if gas hits $10 a burritohellip; I mean gallon? Excuse me. MSN Money asks the question, ldquo;What if gas cost $10 a gallon?rdquo; And then proceeds to answer it. By the way, there are 3.78541178 liters per 1 US gallon. Conspiracy theorists unite! Is there a superficial supply and demand to gasoline prices? Are people not going to be able to go to work? Who will make our McDonaldrsquo;s hamburgers and McNuggets? Who will charge us when we forget to return our library books? Will minimum wage be raised? How will the Lumberghrsquo;s of the world be satisfied when they canrsquo;t bother you about your TPS report covers? How many times can we say ldquo;twelve million dollarsrdquo;? Our predicament is caused by the Chinese. They are doing to us what we did to the Europeans when Americans started driving. By the way, I have ALL the information to back this up. ldquo;So, wersquo;re on this kick of iPhone killers. Two of them are spittinrsquo; imageshellip;rdquo; We talk about 3 potential iPhone killers (Dave, yoursquo;re phonersquo;s days are numbered). The Google Switch The OpenMoko The Samsung Instinct Zackrsquo;s phone from ldquo;Saved by the Bell'rdquo; Wait, how did that get in there? ldquo;How to dismantle your Timebomb.rdquo; How to take apart your iPod, void your warranty and give your wife an excuse for you to get a new one. Talk about killing 3 birds with one stone. Ever want to see how big 20 or 30 business cards are? Open up your iPod and take out the hard drive. ldquo;The Power is where the people are.rdquo; Indie labels combine to form a ldquo;virtual fifth major.rdquo; And itrsquo;s follow-up. Itrsquo;s amazing how we seamlessly flow from this to the reason TV shows are actually on TV (hint: itrsquo;s to shove crap down EJrsquo;s throat). And all actors are dancing monkeys. ldquo;Want a TiVo?" "Yeah." "What kind?" "Dr. Pepper." Next? Chris's plug for Snapstream's Beyond TV and EJ's plug for PlayStation 3.

Did you notice the new intro music?nbsp; Mr. Gore is gone (for now, temporarily, permanently, who knows), but in his place is the smooth sounds of Mr. EJ Hayes. Why you trying to kill my phone? The level of hypocrisy here is deafening. So I'll take my "thanks" back. Three statements that define this show. And once we finally get past our long-winded intro, we finally get into the heart of the discussion: the iPhone killers. *dun-dun-dun* This 'cast talks about the iPhone's downfalls: no feedback from typing, lack of 3G support, lack of enterprise support (at this time), and we have the facts to back ALL of this up. We also review Blackberry's latest attempt at driving the stake into the iPhone's heart (not that it's even close to being "killed" at all) is the Blackberry Bold. (MSN review of the Blackberry Bold - I know MSN isn't exactly known for their hard-hitting tech news, but it's the one we found that included the "touch-screen" quote) "Technology is the new opiate of the masses." What a microSD card is. How would you like to be the guy who gets to come up with this headline: "Man Dressed as Darth Vader Spared Jail for Attack on Founder of Britain's Jedi Church." I don't know about you, but when I think "Jedi church," I think some sort of Catholic ceremony with lightsabers. Apparently it's nothing like that. I actually found video of the attack, and if this is really it, it doesn't seem that bad. In fact, I don't think I saw any blood, but, oh well, here it is.nbsp; For the commentary from a real expert, check out this YouTube video from Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. "Give me a teaser explaining the teaser." Welcome to the world, Grand Theft Auto IV. You violent piece, you (Please put in your real age if you click on the link). Sidenote: Lost is set to record. Ok, back to GTA, the sales of GTA have eclipsed every other game and many movies released - 3.6 million units/$310 million in the initial 24 hours. Why is the game so addicting? Because you can go over to a friend's house, sit on the floor, put in GTA, use the cheat code to get the flamethrower, run to the nearest intersection and just start turning around in a circle and torching everything in sight. In related news, EA makes bid for Take-Two, which counts GTA IV as one of it's assets. Can you imagine Madden: GTA version?
