Some things I can tell you about that thing I'm working on

Okay, I know it's been a while (Even since we first began to try and resurrect the show after its involuntary hiatus), but all the delays have been down to problems cropping up in real life for key talent. We apologise for the delays to those of you who like the show, or are at least curious to see how it has ended up.
 
Anyway, for those of you interested, I've got a few snippets of info about "the new BSHAF" I can share:

  • It's still "The Unofficially Official Giant Bomb Community Podcast" (Certified by David Snider).
  • It's recorded in bits now.
  • Usual runtime is planned as about 60 minutes.
  • It's got a wider variety of features and segments, some of which rotate in and out.
  • An episode can have up to 6 Guests (Potentially more pending further development) without there being the "too many people talking at once" problem.
  • We have a whole new way of featuring Blogs.
  • We have a fun new way to delve into the forums which looks to add value rather than react.
  • Achievements have a cool little segment.
  • Our show totally loves the Wiki, and will not be shy about expressing that in some cool new ways.
  • SteepInKline has replaced the outgoing TokyoChicken as a host.
  • We've re-vamped the "Whatcha Been Playin'?" segment with a community focus as "What We're All Playing".
  • Unlike Rich Gallup, we still sanction cursing.
  • It has its own Skype account.
  • You can still e-mail the show at "thebshaf@gmail.com" if you so desire.
 
There was something else...Um...
 
  • Oh yeah. It should be back this week.
 
Update: There's some more info of interest in this discussion over on Sweep's Blog
Update 2: The first Episode is out Thursday the 27th of August.

Looking forward to checking out the new podcast! I would also be interested in appearing as a guest at some point, so long as you don't mind my thick Northern Irish accent...

You'd have to be nuts to dislike anything about the Irish ;-)

MattBodega had Network issues so the episode had to be delayed. We're recording the final part today.

Hey, I had network issues too! While we were recording!
 
Of course, if they were more along the lines of the network issues I had yesterday, then I totally understand. I couldn't do shit yesterday...
