This is probably the only post about tennis we’ll ever have. I think I’m the only person at At the Buzzer who even remotely likes tennis, which means our resident sports guy (Dave) and basketball guy (Shaun) are out of … Continue reading The Best Tennis I’ve Ever Seen
That’s right, penguins. Penguins are awesome. This is not open for debate. There are acceptable debates about penguins, such as “penguins: best animals or best animals ever?” That’s fine. An example of an incorrect conversation is something like “dogs are … Continue reading Penguins
Because you’ve all been so good and have been killing it on the site lately, here’s another video for the milestone we hit a couple days ago. It took us almost a year to get to 10,000 hits. Then we … Continue reading 20,000 Hits Bonus Video!
Resident Evil 6 is set up to be not only one of the best games of this year, but quite possibly the greatest entry ever in the storied franchise. Pretty much everything fans could want from the sequel is going … Continue reading Resident Evil 6 at E3: Trailer and Gameplay Demo
Admittedly, I’ve never been impressed by the Tomb Raider series. The frustrating platforming, one dimensional protagonist, uninspired gameplay, and laughable story never really did it for me. However, after checking out this trailer, I can safely say the Tomb Raider … Continue reading New E3 2012 Tomb Raider Trailer
I’ve been meaning to do something like this for a while now, but it hasn’t really happened yet. Today is that day. One of the questions about the show I get most is about how we set the whole thing … Continue reading At the Buzzer: Behind the Scenes
Shaun and I were down in Phoenix over the weekend and some of the usual hijinks ensued. We played golf in the scorching heat (seriously, why in the hell is it 105 degrees in mid-April?), and have the videos to prove it. As always, you can subscribe to our Youtube channel to get the latest updates on when things like this are put up.
We also were part of a farewell party for our news girl, Molly. No, she’s not leaving the show (despite all the content she’s made us lose). She’s going overseas for a year to help teach kids English through song and dance. Supposedly everyone was going to be swimming at this party, but Shaun and I were tricked and ended up being the only ones. I also set a modern-day record for most giant Hebrew National hot dogs eaten before swimming.
Finally, we went to the Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concert on Saturday night. Definitely worth the money. Even though the balcony seats weren’t spectacular, they still provided a perfectly good view of the proceedings. One of the neat touches was a monitor by the conductor’s stand that allowed the conductor to sync the timing of the orchestra with videos that were playing on a giant screen in the background. It allowed the sound and video to work together to tell something like a small story and really added to the experience.
Anyway, busy weekend, and I’m sure we’ll talk more about it on this week’s show. In the meantime, here are those golf videos.
As mentioned on our Facebook page yesterday, we just passed the 10,000 hit milestone! Pretty remarkable considering we had a total of 60 in two months early on. Hopefully you folks are enjoying the show and the site — we certainly appreciate everyone taking time to check us out. To celebrate, we’re sticking you with rewarding you with another golf video! Actually, this one is more like an outtake, with screwed-up shots, bad jokes, and Dave’s terrible choice of shorts. Mixmaster Shaun is on the camera for this one, so you know you’re in for some wacky commentary. We’ll see … Continue reading 10,000 Hits: Bonus Video
Stop me if you’ve heard this story before: We played golf in Phoenix this past weekend.
No, wait, don’t go! There’s a new twist this time: We took the opportunity to test out some video! Ooooooo, multimedia.
See, you can never have enough content for the show. Radio’s fun and all, but shooting some footage and uploading it to YouTube is easier than ever. So now you get our usual banter and nonsense mixed with ocular enjoyment. And it never hurts to put a face to the voice.
Here are the videos from this weekend. It’s like a test run. There’s also some more notes after the jump for those who may be interested. And to top it all off, the Photos page has been updated too.
