Podcast 677 Recording Session

Shorter this week, but still much longer than the "finished product". See it in all of its raw-ness.

Podcast 676 Recording Session

If you watch carefully, you might spot a wild Allyn.

Podcast 675 Recording Session

Just five cranky old guys shouting over each other.

Podcast 674 Recording Session

It's longer than the podcast! Because it's unedited!

Build Your Own Ep. 673 JoshBurger

Josh may have forgotten to take a photo of this week's burger, but enterprising editor Sebastian Peak put his MSPaint skills to work to create this burger artwork, available as a BMP file or as the PNG transparencies used as layers in the video version of the show.

Create your own burger with tots, cheese, cheese sauce,...

Podcast 673 Recording Session

Brett is back, and we enjoy some technical issues with Josh's audio at times!

Podcast 672 Recording Session

Brett was out this week - but Kent stepped in and we had a show anyway!

The PCPer Mailbag RETURNS!

It's back. Josh finally did it. He made the video of a lifetime.

Let me know if you like the format for questions - I based it on the last one Jim edited.

Podcast 671 Recording Session

After a delay (preceded by some copyright issues surrounding a short Weird Al clip we dangerously chose to play during the stream), the full recording session is now available! After it finishes processing again with a section muted to appease the greedy!

Podcast 670 Recording Session

Top left tried a unidirectional dynamic mic, and then acted like it wasn't a dynamic mic with a very narrow pickup area. Next week it's back to the QuadCast (probably).

Podcast 669 Recording Session

We did it. Another rambling, occasionally coherent podcast. See the full version for all of the laughs, and the gaffes.

Podcast 668 Recording Session

How did this go on for two hours? FIND OUT!

Podcast 667 Recording Session

The real question for this week: is this 667 still on Slot 1 or did we move to Socket 370?

Josh, Un-Caged

It's like one of those holographic pictures, except it isn't.

Podcast 666 Recording Session

Presented without comment.

Trapped in a CRT

This week's thumbnail image, with the requisite Josh-ster egg.

Podcast 665 Recording Session

Welcome to our experimental ALL-REMOTE podcast! That's right - we are all hundreds or even thousands of miles from each other, but we gathered together in a virtual world for you this week.

Podcast 664 Recording Session

We are just two away from 666. Josh is REQUIRED for that one. But Kent filled in this time and did a nice job as usual.

Enjoy a much longer version of the finished product, nearly double the runtime and probably slightly better than half of the quality.

Call for Mailbag Questions

It's going to happen, darn it. The mailbag. I haven't forgotten. Somehow, some way, I will get Josh to do this. Or I could do it myself (but it wouldn't be anywhere near as entertaining).

PLEASE respond in the comments below with any questions you would like answered in talking head video format on YouTube.

Thank ...

Another Video Review Update

Good grief. Video editing for the podcast is one thing, but trying to make a fancy production out of a product review is extremely time consuming. I have a lot of respect for film editors.

For instance, the process of taking long recordings of the build process and finding some kind of coherent montage out of it - that ...

The SUPA-PIPE 850W

This photo of a PSU's internals was modified slightly for use as this week's podcast thumbnail. See if you can spot the three Josh-ter eggs.

Podcast 663 Recording Session

Yeah, you can watch the edited show on YouTube later on with chapters, more visual aids, and other improvements, but you'd miss the EXTRAS like total gaffes and tasteless jokes.

Fractal Torrent Nano Review in Progress

EXCUSE TIME: dealing with a sick kid this week - who naturally got me sick again, too - but will have something soon on Fractal's new Torrent Nano mini-ITX case.

Video should be a bit sharper than the be quiet! PSU quick look posted yesterday to the 'Tube, since I used a better lens (and shot at 60 FPS instead of 30). I...

Podcast 662 Recording Session

Bigger. Longer. Sometimes slightly uncomfortable. 

ALL of the moments. 

ALL of the extended silences.

ALL of the latency-induced collisions.

The Return of the Weird JoshTEKK Video Clip

Many years ago, a visit to "joshtekk.com" would reward you with a single image (file attached below), depicting Josh being embraced by famous actor Heath Ledger. It may have looked like a simple cut-and-paste job using the cover of a movie about broken backs in the mountains, but we paid Heath a lot of money to pose with Josh...

Podcast 661 Recording Session

Josh didn't host this time, but perhaps he SHOULD have. At least I didn't start coughing uncontrollably until the end... And please keep in mind, I have to listen to this again during editing, and I annoy the crap out of myself at times. Sorry if that's true for you, too.

Podcast 660 Recording Session

JoshTEKK in full effect! Since SP is coughing too much Mr. Walrath hosts - with aplomb. And why shouldn't he, on such a momentous occasion as the Radeon RX 6500 XT launch day?! Wait - that sounds like an insult. To one or both of them.

Radeon RX 6500 XT Excitement

Sapphire was nice enough to loan us one of these INCREDIBLY POPULAR cards. We didn't have a review at the embargo lift this morning because DHL delivered this late in the day yesterday, and for some reason at age 40 I can't pull all-nighters like I used to. I'll also use the "I'm sick" excuse.

Sapphire did confirm that ...

Norton has been into ETH for a long time...

Peter Norton was ahead of his time. Just look at this 100% authentic and not quickly tampered with in MS Paint screenshot from Norton Utilities 3.00! Disturbing.

Podcast 659 Recording Session

Josh was absent with the dreaded virus, Sebastian apparently still has the virus, and the rest of the gang did their best. I will add that Kent's room is A BIT tidier than Josh's.
