Announcing The Weekly Blend AUDIO Newscast

As our loyal followers (<—notice the “s” at the end of the word “follower”) know, we have not been “weekly” in our content.  Well as we had discussed in a few video podcast shows ago, we have been planning some big changes.  The first was an easier schedule and some changes to the video podcast.  We also have one other blog related change that will be rolling out soon and will give you a peek at at our thoughts more frequently as well.  Our other change is the launching of a weekly audio podcast that covers the top news on movies, tv and videogames.

The good news is to those already getting our video podcast, you don’t need to do a thing, your current TWB podcast subscription will start to fill with our weekly news coverage.  For those of you who aren’t already podcast subscribers…..shame on you….  Just kidding but you can

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

.  And honestly this week was a great launch for us to start with some big controversies and stories breaking in all areas of entertainment.

As always we appreciate your support and would love to hear your thoughts in our comment section below.

Post-Avatar Depression Cripples Nerds

I recently saw James Cameron’s space epic Avatar and walked away thinking one word: “Magical.”  Nothing, however, could have prepared me for the responses of Avatar fanboys that CNN details in this article.  Nothing.

Audience Experiences ‘Avatar’ Blues

Seriously, folks, its a movie, not a way of life.  You’d be just as bored on Pandora as you are here on Earth.  Either that or you’d be eaten by the lizard/jaguar thing.  Probably that.

TWB will have more thoughts/discussion on this in our next podcast when we review Avatar.
