Or, at least the kidney of America. We have opinions on just about everything. Wanna hear?

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? What's NaNoWriMo?nbsp; How do you say NaNoWriMo?nbsp; Who is NaNoWriMo?nbsp; Is this thing for real?nbsp; Let's go to the FAQ's.nbsp; You know what's a "hoot"?nbsp; Counting all those effing words.nbsp; It's just icing on the NaNoWriMo cake.nbsp; For an artistic novella, check out Willie's new book with the word "crap" and it's variations. "Chew on that." Check out Traveler Blues.nbsp; Dave and Barrett are working their little fingers to the bone, much like all of the great British blues-rock guitarists of the 1960's did with their guitars, to bring you the best in music. "Get it on." ***Lost SPOILER ALERT***nbsp; Please don't listen if you don't want to know. Show 7 called on account of Lost.nbsp; Happy viewing.nbsp; By the way, Lost streams in HD on ABC.com.

In this show, we talk about everyone's favorite social networking sites, and those that only "older" folks know about: Facebook Myspace Eons Boomertown Here's a NYTimes article that shows trends of VC's and social networking sites and how they are tending to give more to sites that cater to "older people." The scandal that rocked the A/V world: PatriotsGate!!! We here at RI also obtained a copy (through less-than-professional journalistic means) of the video the Pats were using to spy on the Jets.
