I'm sitting with a bunch of nerds and had to ask them what ODST stood for. They, thankfully, did not know what it actually meant.

This definitely made my day!

Oh man, this might be the best new segment yet. Its actually lets you know the gaming issues of the week, yet is hilarious--kind of like Weekend Update, but for gamers.

Its awesomeness knows no bounds.

Simply awesome. The opening graphics are better than most real news networks! Pure gold and I will be tuning in every Wednesday!

That was rather neat, and brings to mind a gaming focused version of The Onion. :) I will indeed be tuning in next week, especially if more random, and perhaps aardvark related, discussion is included!

I was expecting a train wreck but instead actually enjoyed this. You're coming off a bit like ONN but that's okay. The game-centric news stories are far more interesting to me, who will undoubtedly catch the nerd flu.

So glad everyone seems to like it!
(I'm a big fan of Onion's ONN too, btw. Also Weekend Update. And "This Hour", for the other Canadians.)

Absolutely spectacular. I enjoy many comedy shows on The Escapist, but few illicit audible laughs from my office. Good show; I can't wait for more.

Does this remind anyone else of infomania on Current TV...guess just a bit similar sarcastic/ironic news show. Still loved this.

That was... Pretty good actually.

At least it's not as bad as Hard News...

Also, ODST stands for O****** D*** S**** T*******, otherwise known as Helljumpers.
Enjoy quarantine :D I have quickly forgotten that in order to avoid catching the nerd flu.

Awesome! Loving the subtle Monty Python reference at the end! Not often you hear those from your end of the pond! And we do drink tea...lots and lots of tea...
