Episode 17...next week we will be legal.

This is a long one people. Dave and I talk about Ebay and Google merging into one entity, but for good or for evil? Firefox to be apart of the new Microsoft operating system Vista? REALLY? The Emmys were good, mostly because of Conan. The creative process behind Comedy Central's South Park. Podcasting news. Part one of the Fall movie preview with special attention to Hollywoodland. We breeze through the fall line up of the new television network, the CW. We hope Smallville gets better this year and Veronica Mars earns a 4th season this year. Podcast spotlight on Neptune Radio. A podcast about Veronica Mars. Also featuring "Don't Download This Song," by Weird Al

Episode 16 We can drive....now can we help keep Veronica Mars on the air?

Dave and I cover gaming for girls and how some believe the industry has failed women. Our Transformers coverage continues with the list of Robots in Disguise that will be in the movie, most of them we did not recognize. Marvel's Civil War goes into intermission, not good news for comic book readers but good news for people who want to get into it and get caught up. Mother F*ing Snakes on a Mother F*ing Plane! Do you know what Viral Marketing is? It got the word out on Snakes on a Plane, helped save Firefly, sorta, and now is trying to help keep shows like Veronica Mars on the air. We also Spotlighted the podcast Two Mics a Geek and a Podcast and their new upcoming podcast True Believers.

Keep listening and if your heading back to school, Dave's the smart one, he can help you with your homework. Just send him an email at thatsgoodtoknow@gmail.com

Episode 15 Net Neutrality

Do you know what Net Neutraliy is all about? Can you explain it to us? Dave and I try to breakdown the Net Neutrality issue. Something with tubes and telecoms. This is important!!! Hopefully this show gets more people out there especially other podcasters aware that this is a problem and needs to be talk about. We tried our best to give you the basics. Take them and use them to start discussions and get people talking about this. If you download only one episode of That's Good to Know, download this one. We have said that before, but this time we mean it.

Wikipedia -this link is to the definition of Net Neutrality that is being worked on.

Episode 14

Dave and I trust no one. This episode follows our continuing coverage of Mike Lang's career with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Apparently, they are a hockey teem and they were quite good in years past. The government considers restricting access to myspace for minors in libraries. A professor at the University of Wisconsin believes the government was behind the 9/11 attacks. What is truth and reality? Don't ask us, we haven't a clue. A review of V for Vendetta Special Edition DVD.

If you decide to go out and buy the V Dvd before listening to this show, here is one tip, only buy the collectors edition if you want to display the mask or if your face is 2 inches by 2 inches. the mask is tiny.

Hope you enjoy the show. Don't forget to email us with opinions or comments you have on the show at
thatsgoodtoknow@gmail.com

And if your looking for music for your show search for podsafe music. There are tons of great bands out there looking to be heard.

Episode 13

Dave and I put another episode in the can. *sorry LEO* Mel Gibson, violent Pac-man, and video game addiction are a few of the things we talked about. We run through the voice acting career of Peter Cullen who played Optimus Prime (he made a lot of money through the 80's). A special behind the scenes look at how they develop their programming. Dave recounts his JMS siting at Kennywood Amusement Park. And in our first podcast spotlight, take the 120 second podlight and multiply it by 10 we talked about the Video
Game Outsiders and Dave's hopes that they will help him with his Jeep problems.
