It's a special 2-hour episode of our program in honor of the day Charlie "The Cheese" DeLong arrived as a bearded bundle of joy. We asked Charlie what he wanted to do for his birthday. He replied, " A long show." And we obliged. If you're a regular listener to our show you know we're not one to complain... HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I almost made it through that with a straight face! We love to complain! As long as it's something that deserves to be complained about. Well, this may fit into that category. We were all set to do a full episode of our show from this year's Anime Vegas convention. We got all set up and started our recording. Just as we were getting warmed up we were told we had to wrap up. The previous panel spilled over into our time slot, which we weren't upset about. What we were pissed about is that we didn't get our full hour because the staff person in charge wanted to go drink. What an unprofessional loser!
As you might imagine, the post-Anime Vegas posting I made with our short 15 minutes of audio is just the tip of the complaining iceberg. We've got plenty more where that came from on today's show. And so does one of our longtime listeners who used to work on Anime Vegas. You won't want to miss it!
Do you collect movie and TV memorabilia? Do you have a shelf where you keep cool little props from some of your favorite flicks? If so, then we've got quite the story about one such collectable for you today. We've all seen brief glimpses of them — especially on Skinamax — those skin tone-colored modesty pouches actors wear to cover their twig and berries during nude scenes. One of the actors from the hit HBO series True Blood sold his on eBay to benefit charity. It sold for a pretty decent amount too... not Elvis snot wrag prices, but a pretty penny for a sweat-soaked crotch cover.
If you live in a cave without electricity, or on another planet, this may be news to you. Google has unveiled its new instant search technology. Basically, as soon as you start typing in the search box your results will appear and update in real-time with each new character you pound out on your keyboard. New innovation from Google? Halfhearted attempt to drive up their stock prices? Awesome new way to get porno suggestions you may not have seen if you just typed "tranny train" instead of "tranny train with midgets?" You decide. While on this subject we also add a new definition to the word "cobbing."
And as mentioned at the beginning of these shows notes, we didn't get through all of our Anime Vegas material, so we'll try and do so on this episode. It includes a few silly stories from Japan as well as a "Who Fact You?" containing Japanese, manga and anime fun facts. We figured we took the time to write it up, might as well use it. Nothing goes to waste here at Who Asked You? except for everyone's time... but that's all consensual.
Duke Nukem is making his valiant and long overdue return to the video game universe. The sequel to the ever-popular "Duke Nukem 3D" is finally going to wrap development and should be out next year. We'll 'blow you away' with our thoughts on this and another gaming related story. This one, not so much about a game as the console you play them on. Imagine a police officer being told by his wife he couldn't play his PS3 anymore. Being a trained policeman who passed psychological testing and deals with domestic violence crimes all the time, how do you think he would react? We'll tell you.
Rippin' on incompetent convention staff, cock socks, cobbing, Duke Nukem, potentially racist soybeans... yep, this is adding up to a crazy-ass random show befitting Charlie's birthday. That's the way we like it.
