Finally! We have a show up for you to listen to. While the content is a little old (Blame it on Jess!) it’s still packed full of weird and wild news! Recorded on St. Patrick’s Day, we were all wearing green underwear. We will have another one for your consumption soon. We’ve scheduled a recording session this weekend!
Guest Host
Ryan Heit joins us for this show! This is his first appearance. Everyone send him fan mail letting him know how good he was! Thanks for coming by and joining our show!
Drink of the Week
This weeks drink is König Ludwig Weissbier. A great import that is a good Royal Bavarian. Has a nice golden color, with a smooth taste! Great for a nice change, and not hard to find. We picked this one up at the local liquor store.

Largest Solar in the last Five Years Hits the Earth – Make sure you have your tinfoil hats on!
The Earth was the target of the largest solar flare in five years on March 10th. It was an ‘X-Class’ flare – the most powerful of it’s kind. It bombarded the planet for the majority of the day. Luckily, nothing was affected beyond the crazies who were wearing tinfoil hats.

Wasteland 2 Crowd Funded – The father of computer RPG’s is coming back!
“Wasteland 2 is the direct sequel to the first ever post-apocalyptic computer RPG. The original Wasteland was the inspiration for the FALLOUT series of games, and the first RPG to allow players to split parties for tactical considerations, to face players with moral choices, and to make them deal with the consequences of their actions. It was the first to provide far more than the one-key-for-one-lock style of puzzle solving. It was groundbreaking, which is why IGN named it one of the top 25 PC games of all time, Computer Gaming World named it the Adventure Game of the year in 1988, and it was short-listed for inclusion in the Smithsonian Institution’s current “Art of the Computer Game” exhibition.” – Kickstarter Website
Since the podcast was recorded, the kickstarted completed with almost $3 million pledged! Check out their portal site as well!

Iceland looking to adopt the Loonie as their national currency – Long live the Canadian Dollar!
Iceland appears to be increasingly open to adopting the Canadian dollar as its official currency. While currencies such as Norway’s krona or Japan’s yen have reportedly been considered, Canada’s loonie has recently been cited as a frontrunner ahead of even more popular currencies such as the United States’ greenback. Economists say the impact on Canada of Iceland adopting the loonie would be negligible, since Iceland’s economy is less than 1% the size of Canada’s.
