ATR Submission Invite: The Sacrifice Left 4 Dead DLC
Time for another episode. This one is gonna be all about the new DLC that Left 4 Dead received recently! You know how this works, send in all your fun stories, opinions, and other thoughts on the DLC to atr@podtacular.com. The form appears to be missing for now, but I’ll try and get a link to that form put up on the site again. For now just use the email.
Given my school schedule I can’t give a definite recording date, but it’s gonna be in at least one week and no more than three weeks (I hope). So there isn’t a big rush to send them in. You have plenty of time to play it before the show gets recorded.
Get to it!

Around The Ring FINALLY UP!
I finally managed to get episodes 18 and 19 up. I still need to sort out the URLs for the album art in the posts, but other then that it’s all working fine. Only available on the site for now unfortunately, Dustin is still sorting some stuff with the posts. After that’s done it’ll be up on iTunes and the RSS feed. For now the episodes are going up, so yay. I’ll keep you updated on further developments. Hint: ATR might be getting it’s own page.
Around The Ring Episode 19 – Starcraft II
Download
Well a little over a decade later, this show has finally come out! Also Starcraft II showed up. Sorry for the horrible delay, but as usual blame Dust Storm. However the wait was worth it, as we have a much nicer setup now! The show has it’s own feed, and with it’s own page possibly coming soon. This show took two takes, as the first take failed…really really hard. I still was able to salvage some funny bloopers from it, so it wasn’t a total waste. Note: Porta-potty != TARDIS. There’s a little wind noise, and some noise with me fiddling with my headset at certain points, but it’s not too bad. I cleaned the worst of it out. Other than that it’s up to the usual audio standard. I also officially introduce the new theme song! Credits can be found in the comments tag of the .mp3 file, and if it happens, the show page. You can view the album art at full size by opening the image.
Around The Ring Episode 18 – Alien Swarm
Download
Hello again listeners! Yet another late episode, this time it’s been held up by issues with the feed change, and my own life getting busy. Stuff is still being pulled together, so bear with us. This one is about the free Valve game Alien Swarm, available exclusively on Steam. It’s a lot of fun, and seeing as it comes with a full SDK you should be expecting a lot of fun custom content. In addition in talking about the game, we also talk about the Half Life 2: Episode 3 content found in the game files.
We got a little off topic on this show…I’ll try to cut down on that, funny as it is. No show-notes again, actually we didn’t use any…I’m surprised it went as well as it did. It’s not like we had to record and patch in an entire section that we forgot. I have no idea how, but this show clocked in at …I’ll try to keep future shows on track so they don’t end up as long.
Around The Ring Episode 17 – Team Fortress 2 Engineer Update
Download
It’s time for another show! Once again held up in delivery because SOMEBODY never replies to their IMs. Nobody submitted…so it’s your fault we ran out of stuff to talk about. This one is about the update that the Engineer class in Team Fortress 2 received. This show took two takes, but in total with the mishap only took three hours to record. The funnier bits from the failed first take come in at the very start, so you’ll hear those before the actual show starts. Have fun with that intro. Guests on the show include Alchanii, who you’ll remember from the last show we did, and our very own Painkilla who now hosts the Gamer1 podcast. In this episode, we discuss the engineer update, Funnyboy drinks some green tea, and Painkilla levels up in World of Warcraft. It clocks in at 84:47, so you’ll have plenty of fun. 6 minutes of bloopers. No show-notes this week, there’s really nothing much in them. You can look at the album art by clicking on the image, it’s 600X600.

Around The Ring Episode 16 – Left 4 Dead 2: The Passing DLC
Download | Shownotes
Yay! I’m back! This week the show is all about The Passing, the free (har har har) DLC that came out for Left 4 Dead 2. It’s out a little late because Dust Storm was on a road trip home, and he’s the one who uploads stuff apparently. Joining me this week we have Knuckles Dawson from Rooster Teeth’s Achievement Hunter site, Alchanii who is a friend of Knuckles Dawson, and returning is Lono from Sarcastic Gamer (although only for the first 20 minutes). Not joining me this week is Funnyboy who decided to vanish, losing all of his intern points in the process. This episode was probably the funnest one I’ve done so far, and it’s you’re definitely going to like it. Plenty of fun in the bloopers as well.
