We Hate People Episode 7: We Are Tight But Whole

logo-withtagline-blogsize300x300We jump feet first into the issue of entitlement this episode. Whether it’s politicians or the rest of us, we have some gripes on the issue. Also – apologies for the sound quality tonight, we’ve tried to minimise the issue as much as possible.

The Show Notes

– Shout out to It’s A Trap Podcast
– Shout out to listener JB (damn those stools) and Jayconnell (bitching about one’s job instead of doing it)
– Politician entitlements
– Vinyl craze about to make way for cassettes? (and here’s Meco)
Marvel’s 1872 title is great
– iTunes is a toxic hellstew
– 1000 rockers and the Foo Fighters (link)

Episode 10 of TMJ Podcast – Another Perfect World (Jorien van Nes)

It’s been a few months since the last podcast but we’ve had the perfect excuse to produce Episode 10, with the Metaplace launch of the virtual worlds documentary, Another Perfect World. I received a preview copy of the movie yesterday and was impressed with its breadth and quality.

The podcast is devoted to an interview with Another Perfect World‘s Co-Director, Jorien van Nes, who provides her thoughts on the film and virtual worlds more broadly. Enjoy:
