The only thing I didn't understand was when he spoke Dutch.. :p

Jess, if you need Batavian news then you can ask me and I will tell it in English so everyone understands it. :)

Benkern ist ein Englander? Gott in Himmel!

Not bad for a first shot though. Jess is somewhat wittier than I imagined. Also, when I read this thread title I thought it said "OMG Eastern Benacia" which, in my honest and most humble opinion is a much better name ;)

Jawohl mein kamerad. :p

Thanks for all the positive comments and helpful advice. Scripting might indeed be a good idea. And yeah we should totally get you on Roy, and anyone else that wants to help out. :)

Okay, first of all, the Doom Arena is going to be EPIC. :D

Second of all, tell me the next time you do it so I can be sure to get a microphone or something to that effect by the next one so I can contribute. That will make it awesome. :thumbsup

Oh no, Boris, could you imagine you and me on that at the same time?

Benkern, stop calling me Roy! Oroigawa is the surname! Can people please call me Corey? :p

Oh sorry, I can't remember what happened in that thread where I asked if I could called you Roy but I presumed you were okay with it. Corey it is! :fish

Can I call you Mr Roy then if it is indeed your last name? I just think the name Roy suits you. :thumbsup

Let Gilrean do it. As she says, it's her job, and after today, he'll have to listen to her.

At the behest of the Den-mother of Shireroth and your fiancée I am obliged to leave the chain-pulling to others. Oh, and if I hadn't said before Corey, congratulations. :fish :p

I don't have to, it's just wise to do so...or at least pretend to do so...

Now that would be awesome. Not just because you're Ari, but because you're almost in my timezone. I recorded the last one at 4AM! :fish

But the really nice thing about today's information age is that it still sounded like you two were in the same room at times. I'm constantly impressed by that.

Gotta love that information age. :archy

Anyone want to help out tomorrow? So far it should be me and Prodigy, anyone is welcome on. Contact me if you're interested.

Edit: I know some have expressed interest... but... for tomorrow. :)

Carol, imagine not too many years ago the cost of a 20 minute transAtlantic phone call.... :nuclear

I shudder to remember. When Bob and I were dating, I got a 10 minute long distance call from San Luis Obispo or Fresno to Hayward, California, once a week, and it cost most of what Bob made working part time at the dorm at the front desk at school.. The mileage was about 300 miles, but the cost was over $10, four times what he and I made in one hour while working our way through school. I don't remember the cost of a transatlatic call, but I imagine it would have had to approach $100. People were more likely to send telegrams then. Yes, it was a different world, indeed. And snail mail was still very much alive. There were no other inexpensive options.

Me and Prodigy did indeed record the second episode of Eastern Benacia Radio last night. We started off with a script like Carol suggested, but somehow it ended up being 34-odd minutes long. :surprise That aside it was a pretty good show, we covered the economy and Imperial Decrees 296/7 along with loads of other news from Shireroth and the MCS.

I'm sorry you didn't get to come on Bayen, next week! :thumbsup

Now Jess... it's like 30 mb... what the hell am I doing with it? I can't host it and I don't have access to EBR.podbean. :)
