Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 33

December 18, 2012

Episode 33 of the Super Podcast Action Committee is a "Best of 2012" episode, or a "clip show" as Andrew Eisen is fond of calling it. With Andrew trapped somewhere in a basement in a rural part of Kentucky, and the Christmas and New Year's holidays on the horizon, we thought it would be a good time to take a break and prepare for 2013. So this week we pick our favorite segments from the first 32 episodes of the show. We hope you enjoy this look back.

Andrew Eisen Video: 'You're Probably an A$$h*le'

December 14, 2012

Andrew Eisen's latest video is probably not safe for work, school, or your local church group, but it raises an interesting point about who among the human race might be categorized as a$$h*les.

From DRM to piracy and attitudes about the holidays, Andrew lays it all down in the simplest terms and with the most colorful language he has used to date. You can check out his latest video on his YouTube channel or to your left.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 27

November 5, 2012

In Episode 27 of the Super Podcast Action Committee hosts Andrew Eisen and E.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 26

October 29, 2012

In Episode 26 of the Super Podcast Action Committee hosts Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight celebrate Halloween with tales of horror about bugs and glitches in video games, offer their opinions on Activision editing a Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer map because of complaints from the community, and share several true ghost stories.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 25

October 23, 2012

In Episode 25 of the Super Podcast Action Committee hosts Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight talk about what happens when a fully funded Kickstarter project (in this case the game Haunts: The Manse Macabre) fails to become reality, the wisdom of knowing when to shut down a failing Kickstarter campaign (the focus of that topic being Loot Drop's attempts to fund the 'Old School RPG'), the latest on the "six strikes" copyright enforcement scheme adopted by U.S. ISPs, Andrew's latest video, and the horrors of using voice chat on Nintendo's Wii U.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 24

October 15, 2012

It is shocking just how many gamers have at least one or two games lying around that they haven't finished or haven't played. In episode 24 of the Super Podcast Action Committee Andrew and EZK spend a fair amount of time talking about that topic and revealing the results of the latest GamePolitics poll. They also dissect the latest lawsuits including one against Turbine Entertainment and a settlement agreement between Spry Fox and 6Waves over some unauthorized cloning of a popular iOS app. FX Network's Archer also gets an honorable mention..

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 23

October 9, 2012

A "day late and 30 minutes short" would be the best way to describe Episode 23 of the Super Podcast Action Committee as host Andrew Eisen struggles with being sick and co-host E. Zachary Knight rails against the wickedness of the state of Oklahoma keeping his preferred candidate off the ballot. In between these trials and tribulations, Andrew and EZK talk about Kevin Butler being sued by Sony, Nintendo's non-gamer ad, the latest poll on GamePolitics, and troubles at the drive-in.

October 1, 2012

This episode will chafe you more than an iron thong on a female fighter who can't stand up straight because some Japanese guy gave her an unneeded mega boob job... Someone call a chiropractor!

Super Podcast Action Committee - Lucky Episode 13

Visualizing an Irate The Dark Knight Rises Fan Lashing out at Critics

July 19, 2012

In his latest video Andrew Eisen plays the part of a The Dark Knight Rises fan responding to critics.

While the video is about the movie and the response to low review scores for the latest Christopher Nolan Batman film on Rotten Tomatoes (which apparently caused some fans to issue some death threats and share some other forms of vile speech), this video could easily apply to Halo, Uncharted, Madden, or any other beloved franchise with a protective fan base...

Some items were harmed during the making of this video. We were not involved.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 11

July 18, 2012

Episode 11 of the Super Podcast Action Committee almost didn't happen this week. Oh, Andrew and Zachary sat down and talked for a full 60 minutes, but an upgrade to the recording software we use managed to throw a wrench in the works leaving us with only 32 minutes of questionable audio to work with.

How Many Bleeps Does it Take?

July 16, 2012

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this new video from Andrew Eisen is NSFW. In this episode Andrew has lost the ability to create videos (he doesn't explain the why or how of that) so he tries his hand at creative censorship. You can see the original lengthier version of the commercial he's making fun of here.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 10

July 11, 2012

We hit a milestone this week - our 10th episode of the show (although we could argue that it is actually the 11th or 12 episode of the show if you count the lost episodes we determined to be not suitable for public consumption)! This week Andrew Eisen and E. Zachary Knight talk about patent wars, the European Court's ruling that digital games can be resold, Verizon's claim that net neutrality violates its first amendment rights, the controversy over Blizzard banning some Linux-using Diablo III players, and a whole lot of other interesting topics.

Super Podcast Action Committee - Episode 9

July 4, 2012

Episode 9 of the Super Podcast Action Committee is dedicated to Independence Day, the ECA's Declaration of Internet Freedom, and complaining about games. Andrew and James b*tch and moan about Battlefield 3, LEGO Batman 2, and some other topics that rub them the wrong way. This episode contains colorful language. Moms were dispatched with bars of soap to deal with these filthy mouths.
