Anyone know what happened to the Ultimate Podcast?

I stopped listening to it a while ago.... but recently heard that Steve got pwned by Derk...
So I go to listen to the latest episode and now the Untouchable League of American gamers seems to be the Temporarily Disabled League of American Gamers....

Did he get owned that hard? :)

Or did Aldie and his ISP throw a disconnect party? ;)

DUDE! Do not even JOKE about that. Step away from the keyboard, PRONTO. And...apologize retroactively. To EVERYONE.

Do this, and Aldie shall not send a plague of locusts unto your house.



Anyway....


I have no idea what happened to Steve. He kind of huffed off Fortress: Ameritrash's comments section due to a perceived "freedom of speech" issue, and I haven't heard from him since.

Wonder what hobby Steve has invaded now? I'm thinking scapbooking.

"Good evening Ladies and well older Ladies! Todays Ultimate Scrapcast is about the on going debate Digital Scrapbooking vs. Traditional paper scrapbooking!"

And the Steve Weeks the Ultimate Scrapbooker Award of the year goes to Blue textured mylar acid fee paper! Whoo whoo...

Right On! Right....On!

That can't be true since Derk is still missing or possibly replaced by a skrull depending on which threads you read. It must be just a rumor.

Well, like Octavian (I think, forgot to look) said, there was a stupidness that went on at F:AT, and he was again being an idiot about the whole censorship thing, and took off. He did log in as of yesterday though.

Don't know about the podcast thing though. Don't really care one way or the other if it comes back...

I just received a Geekmail from Steve indicating that he was indeed finished with the Ultimate Podcast, citing a lack of time to devote to the show.

He thanked everyone for listening.
Everything between now and the next game is just killing time

Muh, I for one will miss it should it not come back.
Despite all it's faults (and there were many) if you listened to it for just shit and giggles it's a good cast, if you take it seriously then it's not. Either way I have to say I preferred it to the Dice Tower.

Actually, if he's stopped making them then the last one is the only one that truly was...

Maybe Steve ran out of songs to promote? Seems like his music played as big a role as anything else in the podcasts. I stopped listening after the first season.

I do wish he'd made a formal announcement and given a week or two for everyone to download and archive the podcasts. I have a few of them saved, but not all.

No matter what you thought of Steve, he had some great interviews and some really informative segments. From behind-the-scenes stuff with Aldie and Derk, to a memorable interview with Michael Barnes, a solid interview with Robert Martin...definitely some good stuff.

That is too bad. I enjoyed speakin' with Steve. And our last conversation was quite pleasurable. Not 'cuz I "pwned" him, but more that I felt like we came to understand one another better, rather than just being victims to rhetoric.
