Just a guy trying to reason his way around this crazy place we call Earth // Math/Science/Tech Enthusiast // Co-host of @_FutureChatFM & @_DesktopFM

@JustFlySports Just listened to an Iron Culture podcast episode where they interviewed Ian Pyka (https://t.co/391mYtaDAG). Very interesting guest and I think he'd be a great interview for your show.

@KatsHockey Solid idea, @KatsHockey. We're heading to the ceremony now!

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@nwamaddox @daveberta @tantiyeg @MaestroMichael2 @sharonmvu @michaelbasileus Thanks for the GL, no promises on the HF though

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@marcoarment Hey Marco, do you have any recommendations for where online to get 20mm quick-release watch bands/bracelets? Looking specifically for a gunmetal one that won't scratch too easily.

We realize this is literally the worst, but @ma_YYC discovered yet more audio drift issues later in the episode. If you discover #17 (from earlier this week) becoming unlistenable around 01:15:00, redownloading will give you a pristine listening experience!

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@MrNobre I'm curious about the differences and pros/cons between the 3DS, 2DS, and 3DS XL if you're familiar with what they might be, ideally from experience

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@MrNobre Hey so since you're a big Nintendo guy I wanted to pick your brain on current handheld consoles - I'm looking to pick one up to play Pokemon (probably Ultra Sun to start) so I was thinking the 3DS. I have a couple questions about that.

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@MrNobre Yeah I'm looking forward to the Let's Go release! I'm kind of wanting something a bit more traditional though and also wanting it now haha. I also want something a bit more portable than the Switch as it's currently acting as a dedicated TV console

[Mike @ma_YYC]

1.) Am I looking for trouble going the Kijiji route for a console and/or game?

2.) Is the 3DS the way to go? Am I missing anything by not going for the 2DS or the 3DS XL?

3.) If buying on Kijiji, are there different gens of consoles out there with the same name I should avoid?

If you downloaded today's episode before now, you will probably notice a sync issue between Mike and I about 20 minutes in. If you redownload the file, the issue should be fixed!

After a relaxing summer break, we're back at it again with a new episode next week! Tune in TOMORROW live at 10 AM MDT while we share our thoughts on "spoilers", and discuss the movie Arrival (2016)

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@allthebitspod Hey just listened to my 1st episode, great show! I can tell you two are super passionate about gaming and I like how in-depth you go about the details of each game. I was looking in the show notes for a list of the games you mentioned but couldn't find one!

[Mike @ma_YYC]

Fancy that, seeing @EauClaireCraft on the shelves so soon after speaking with them at #TasteTech18!

Make sure to check out @_FutureChatFM's live show episode where we chat about what Eau Claire Distillery is doing, and other food science in Alberta!

Finally! Too bad I've already subscribed to Spotify and Netflix. Will have to dig into the YT Premium catalogue and see if it offers anything worth signing up for. https://t.co/4J4P0axepH

@PS2Jshow I'm cautiously optimistic about Let's Go (coming from a past Blue gamer and current PoGO player) but the actual game mechanics and meta game will decide it for me

[Mike @ma_YYC]

Hey @PS2Jshow are you guys going to be talking about Pokémon Let's Go! and/or the upcoming RPG being released in 2019? I'm interested to hear your thoughts on it and the direction TPC/Game Freak is taking with the franchise!

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@PS2Jshow Ahhh I'll have to check that episode out. I just finished 198 but haven't worked your show into the regular rotation yet but you get into the queue in between other show's release dates haha.

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@PS2Jshow Looking forward to that one! I haven't played SSB since the original N64 version, might have to pick up the Switch one this time 'round.

[Mike @ma_YYC]

@RobAttrell Haha I mentioned we talked about it on the show and that I was wanting one. She picked it up for me at one of the retailers she was close to, and I didn't even ask her to!

[Mike @ma_YYC]

Definitely greatest.
