I really like this series...  Farmville torture.  I refuse to play Farmville, but I was curious.

Glad Steve fixed his farm. He currently has more experience points and money than Matt, so we'll have to see if Matt's current artichoke plan pays off in the end!

Bodega's Butt Barn sounds like a stripclub you'd see going through Oklahoma.

This 10 minute format where they say anything they have to say and then stop works VERY WELL. It's totally enough to make me keep up with this series. Much better than the previous episode's "Uh...yeah. Farming."

Steve has already vastly improved upon his investor's funds. This looks like it could be exceedingly one sided

I'm enjoying finally being able to learn about FarmVille without having to play it myself, it looks terribly boring.

Also, for the sake of moving this along, I think you need to let them use the friend-related features, they seem to be everywhere. The only downside being that probably all the users on GB will just become willing slaves to these guys, working their farms for them...

Thank God these are just quick updates. I don't think I could take anymore.

I'm interested to see if Bodega's artichoke-heavy futures pay off. My guess is no.

I have to say I disagree, I think 10 minutes or less is the perfect amount of check in time.

I sincerely hope this Farmville nonsense isn't taking the place of a proper Endurance Run. Episodic content is a damn good thing, I think we can all agree... but, Farmville? Most cliche shit ever coming up: I'd rather watch paint dry.

Jeff said on the last radio show that there wasn't going to be an Endurance Run this year, but that he was looking at some games. This isn't taking the place of an ER, so don't worry.

Thank heavens for the shorter check-ins. I was worried every video was going to be 30-40 minutes. This is the perfect FarmVille consumption per/day I'd say!

When you can, you want to switch to pure cotton. As it's the best profit for low levels and has a decent 12 hour cycle. (Racist name optional)

I think Kessler is very thrifty and is wearing the same glasses he was given in the 4th grade, which is why they look so small on his MASSIVE HEAD.

When Kessler started talking about breaking his account trying to put $10 on it I thought he was talking about his bank account. Was very confused how you destroy your own bank account trying to make a deposit.

That's right, the artisjoke turtling Kessler is doing is no match for the habaneros rush.
