Episode 167: Awesome Techno

(Update: Had the wrong filename. You should be good to go now!) Pete can't hear us over the awesome techno of the gameplay trailer for Street Fighter IV for... iPhone. We also got a mailbag entry from Edubuccaneer this week, which asks us if there's anything we hated as kids that we love now.

Episode 147: Out Of Order

See, as it's numbered, this episode is SUPPOSED to come BEFORE episode 148. And, on the RSS feed, it does! But, if you've been a good monkey, you'll have already gotten 148 because something was wrong with this file. No worries--we're good to go, BUDDY.
