headshotradio — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 07:03:38 +0000

In Headshot Radio episode 54 the unthinkable has happened … Chad misses a show. So other than the fact that Mike, Eric, Derek, and Chase have all been playing lots of games … you should check out this show for the sheer morbid curiosity of what Headshot Radio sounds like without Chad. Games on the docket: Fable 2, Dead Space, Civilization, Fallout 3, Spore, and more!

Headshot Radio 052: The More Things Change…

headshotradio — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 06:32:47 +0000

Unfortunately things around here are going to change a little bit (once again) … but this time it has to do with Mr. Hollywood. Derek will be taking a leave of absence from his podjockie duties on Headshot Radio to work on other projects that will be taking up his Saturdays and Sundays, which is when we record the show. So he may pop in once in awhile … but he’s no longer going to be on the show most of the time. We’re looking into 4th chair options …

As For this week … Chad has some more strife when it comes to his American 360 … Mike is playing the newest released game (Dead Space) and you know Eric ain’t been playing crap but he still brings his own flavor to the show. NPDs, 360 Hard Drive sales, and TGS are all on the list of topics along with Good Word and out-takes … its still the HSR you all know and love … with just less of Derek.

Headshot Radio 045.5 - Hiatius Explained and Sorta-Show

headshotradio — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 18:23:02 +0000

Hey Headshot Radio fans … I’d like to apologize for the lack of content on the main site lately. Most notably the lack of posting the podcasts on the website the last couple of weeks for all of those of you who don’t get the show from iTunes. Ever since my new job, I’ve begun working on the weekends, which have been preventing me from editing the show until Monday or Tuesday nights. On top of that, I’ve had family visiting the last couple of weeks, so I’ve been using those “my weekends” to visit with them.

Now … for those of you that are paying attention to the weather and know that the recording of the show takes place in Southwest Florida … then you know that my area is being affected by Tropical Storm Fay. That’s the reason there wasn’t a real show this week, I was busy with work, getting the homestead ready for the storm and what not.

This week Chad and I put together a little transitional show .HOPEFULLY, next week will spell more normalcy for Headshot Radio … but who knows for sure. Until then … SCROGGS!

We talk some games, Soul Calibur 4 and Boom Blox, we talk some movies, and we talk a lot of random stuff. Check it out.

Headshot Radio Bonus: Metal Gear Spoilercast

headshotradio — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 05:39:11 +0000
