The Giant Beastcast: Episode 0

Giant Beastmode

Thanks for the spoiler notes! And hail to the Beast.

Yay! Beastcast!

Good to hear Vinny and Alex in extended audio form.

Ahahaha, this is two hours long! I thought this was meant to be the short one!

wooooo!

The editing is already amazing.

@vinny Your audio biterate doesn't need to be this high considering it's just speech, maybe go for (64 kbps (it'll be fine)). Also organising your podcast by date is good because it makes people feel like they can jump in any time. When you get to ep 40 or whatever some people might think that they've missed out on 39 episodes, then they'll run away.

Thanks for the podcast though :)

P.S.

Also the download via browser is Ep-05-22-2015-9641785221._0_-_The_Giant_Beastcast

Notice the -->"._0_-_The_Giant_Beastcast" easy fix, I just added a .mp3 at the end but yeah something might have wrong in the process.

I love that a short podcast is over 2 hours. Not complaining!

Noice.

Man, that Witcher movie/TV series from way back is real shit. The new live-action adaptation by Bagiński has a very low bar to pass.

FYI: Downtown Abbey and Black Mirror are shown on ITV and Channel 4 respectively, not everything that comes out of the UK is from the BBC :P

Here we gooooooooooooo

Good to see that the 90 minutes podcast is over 2 hours already ;)

AWWWWWE YEEEEAAAH!

Downloaded it and was given a file extension of giant_beastcast!

This 'moving to a new office' thing is obviously a ruse - They've been working on a new media container. Take that Neil Young.

Oh, I changed the extension to MP3 and it worked. ;)

So if they're going to cover the stuff the Bombcast misses, that means all animu games from Atlus, NIS America, XSeed, Aksys and Idea Factory, right? Right?

After all the Witcher talk on the Bombcast, I'm so hyped for their discussion of Hyperdimension Neptunia U: Action Unleashed!

Early friday morning Beastcast??? HELL YES my dreams have COME TRUE.

Yes Vinny back on a weekly podcast, now if only Jeff could get there and have a random 25 min discussion on G.I Joe and Transformers.

Alex and Vinny are awesome

woah

short podcast lol, love it...

Just a suggestion but naming the episodes by date of release and not sequentially will make it easier to find a particular episode.

BEAST!

Giant BEastCast is a go! Glad they didn't try to keep it short for the sake of digestability! Pfah!

Whoa 185MB. Looks like it might still be in wav format. Also there is no file extension so you have to add .mp3 or.wav :P

Fuck Yeah!

Looks like Vinny and Alex are putting on the finishing touch.

Awesome.

Oh what a day, what a lovely day! :)

@cirdain: I was thinking the same thing. 186mb for a podcast is prety massive file size. Im guessing @Vinny is still twiddling with the bitrate.

awwww yeeeahhh!

Yay! I'm starting to run out of episodes of Now Playing to listen to (I wouldn't be running out if it wasn't for their awful donation model that makes it so that large swaths of their episodes are gone for good until the next time they decide to trot them out for an exorbitant price *grumble grumble*), so I needed something new to take its slot. Great timing!

Player isn't working for this or the Premium one at all for me. Might be because it's not got a file extension, idk.

@cirdain: But I want 192kbps Vinny in my ears!

This is it, living the dream!

I'm very excited about my weekly audio dose of Alex and Vinny. And if this is a "short" episode... Oh boy!

Wow! 2 hours?! When they said short I was hoping for at least 1 hour. But 2 hours is fantastic! Thanks guys!

The file extension issue is easily solved on computers but any podcast apps on mobile devices will throw a hissy fit.

Never expected to see Michał Żebrowski on the front page of Giant Bomb.

Goddamn this makes my week.

The beast has been unleashed!

I'm ready for 2 hours of Vinny and Alex in my ears.

Giantbomb for the best in .wav format podcasting

A little issue I have with iTunes: When I import the podcast via RSS it only shows the microphone check episode, not episode 0. A fix would be highly appreciated. Unless it's a fuckup on iTunes' side, then god help us all.

I agree with everything this guy said. The bitrate is way too high for me to be downloading this to my phone.

The games are the extended universe, so I agree. Though the original books are also good.

This just reminded me that I needed to finish Black Mirror. Finished season 1 and absolutely, positively, friggin loved it, but Vinny was right when he said it's soul crushing.

@san_salvador: It takes longer for the iTunes to get an update. I'm waiting for it now as well.

(G)BEAST MODE!!!

This is big time.

Been waiting for this. GB is an amazing site.
