Look at that, a more timely release! Draeno and Emdee chat about CISPA, Ikea digital cameras, a couple of upcoming guest reviews, what small country Apple should buy, Axecop on the way to FOX, Fringe’s renewal, Star Trek reboot sequels, Rock Band 3′s future, and more!

Hey, remember these guys? If you don’t remember the team, they’re the head nerds at the 20 Sides of Nerd podcast. Contrary to public opinion, Emdee and Draeno aren’t not dead, nor retired. They are just busy in real life! Join them for the regular insanity. They discussed Halo 4′s launch date, a discussion about what they know about it (which isn’t much), small nuclear reactors and why they are heartily approved, Falling Skies upcoming comics, Fringe (before we knew it was renewed), mandatory car black box incident reporting, and 80′s musician-hosted reality programming.

Apologies for the continuing head cold! Please join Draeno and Emdee in welcoming David from Boardgameexchange.com to the podcast this week. He discusses his service that is best described as Netflix for board games. Also discussed, Draeno’s wariness about kickstarter projects, Steve Jackson’s Ogre success, a RIAA-worrying legal precedent, and the normal randomness.

It was thought that Draeno wasn’t going to be available to podcast, but as things go what is expected isn’t always what will be. Through a truly unfortunate sequence of events transpired and he was able to cast. The bonus is that now he gets to tell everyone about the events that stopped him …

This week Draeno decided to go off and have some fun with Emdee at Emerald City Comic Con. To hell with him then! Instead, Emdee brought Snorkle aboard from the Geek-Republic. Dragging him from a back back alley, a bag was put over his head to smuggle him into the 20SON studios to record this week’s Draeno-free podcast. Together they talk about Best Buy’s collapse, Mass Effect 3‘s ending and why it’s really not an issue, genre TV, and a couple of other random topics.

This week it is just your standard co-host random topic cast. One would think that in a week that saw a new iPad announcement and a major game release that there would have been more to talk about. Join Draeno and Emdee this week while they discuss Blizzard buffing the scroll of resurrection, Topher Grace’s fan edit of Star Wars Episodes 1-3, Marvel and digital distribution rolling into just a general discussion of digital distribution, an analysis of the 3rd generation iPad announcement, and Mass Effect 3 stealing the souls of gamers worldwide.

Special guest David Sirlin of Sirlin Games joins 20 Sides of Nerd’s hosts Draeno and Emdee. Together they talk about the path David took in creating his own games like Yomi and Puzzle Strike, issues with patent and copyright in games, and the struggles of creating a “balanced” fighting game or deck based game. He even takes the time to answer some pointed questions from podcast listeners via Twitter. As a special bonus he drops some information on his newest game that is his “answer to Magic the Gathering.”

We discuss quite possibly our favorite new extreme sport Tazerball, a study announcing piracy doesn’t change movie studios’ bottom line in the USA, iPhone stoves in China, and the Mass Effect 3 day one DLC brouhaha. Next week, a special guest? We’ll see!

First of all, since we’ve got The Light Show as a guest, you know full well that the explicit tag is earned. Be warned! In typical 20SON fashion, we go over all kinds of things this week. Sony/Apple and Whitney Houston’s death, Target’s data mining and the teenage pregnant mom, Twitter as a news source, Ivy Bridge delayed until June, 2001 A Space Odyssey, Syd Mead’s futurism, Apple’s OSX Mountain Lion announcement, don’t use Facebook when you’re on a jury, Kickstarter and the game industry, Lightshow’s experiences with Minecraft 1.1, the new Civilization V expansion, and the Old Republic Endgame.

Yeah, so we don’t have a band, but Shephard had to get his back together for Mass Effect 2. With the release of Mass Effect 3′s demo this week, it’s appropriate. Well, at least as appropriate as we get around here.
