The GameCola Podcast

It's time to wake up with GameCola! Or rather, it was. In this hour of GameCola's 200th Podcast livestream Jeddy hosts the equivalent of GameCola Morning Talk-Radio with a very sleepy Joe and an imminently sleeping Blu. This hour gives us such fun topics as: - Jeddy's favorite parts of the Clipshow Hour - Blu heads off to sleep so that someone can be conscious once Joe passes out. - Reminiscing about the Waking Up With GameCola livestreams - Jeddy's almost done with Business School - Discussing the Business of GameCola - Remembering Jeddy's IBM Showcase

Some of GameCola's greatest hits! When this section of the 200th podcast was live, it was at 4AM EDT and I figured it'd be a good opportunity to have a handoff from the night crew to the morning crew while most people would be asleep. Plus, it's a great opportunity to see how far we've come in 200 episodes and over 15 years of podcast! In this compilation, you'll hear some of my favorite clips from the following episodes, starting at the corresponding timestamps: Ep. 1: The Janish (0:00) Ep. 2: With Apologies to the GameCola Staff (2:18) Ep. 3: Mid-February Edition (3:28) Ep. 14: We Are Drama Queens (4:23) Ep. 36: Boring Gaz Problems (6:40) Ep. 44: That Was Limited (9:24) Ep. 52: It's a Turtle! (13:50) Ep. 75: We Don't Talk About the Dark Times (18:28) Ep. 92: The Singing Podcast (21:52) Ep. 95: Dandelions, Deponias, and Developments (25:23) Ep. 117: Nintendo Labo and The Second Xeno (28:07) Ep. 126: The Oxford English Mario Party (33:04) Ep. 132: Cool Hamster Slang (36:12) Ep. 137: Real Basketball Cosplay (37:29) Ep. 148: The Death of Mario (40:59) Ep. 152: Martin Joeseph Takes Over (42:44) Ep. 157: Sonc 2 and Dune II Too (46:51) Ep. 171: Unity Grr Cry (51:59) Ep. 182: Patently Absurd (54:09) Ep. 197: Looking Back and Forthward (54:52)

Greetings, GameCola Faithful! In recognition of 24 years and 200 podcasts last April, we celebrated with a 24-hour livestream extravaganza which we are compiling for your listening pleasure! However, due to the novel nature of our enterprise (aka Joseph did not know how long YouTube streams worked) we ended up losing the first four hours of the show. Therefore, we have created both a document and a podcast episode to recap what you missed! In this recap episode, you'll find James Pelster, Blu Ryder, and Joseph Martin cover the first four hours which are: - 0:00 Opening Ceremonies - Blu Ryder, Joseph Martin, Paul Franzen, Nathaniel Hoover, Anna Bryniarski - Join us as we open the show and honor all GameCola has been so far! - 1:00 Newsletter Hour - Blu Ryder, Joseph Martin, Paul Franzen, Nathaniel Hoover, Anna Bryniarski - Dive into the history of GameCola as it got its beginnings as a newsletter. - 2:00 Blu Hour - Blu Ryder, Paul Franzen, Anna Bryniarski, James Pelster - An hour of fun hosted by Blu Ryder. - 3:00 Gaming After Dark - Blu Ryder, Joseph Martin - Late night Gaming Chats about topics only allowed After Dark. So have a listen, and join us for the rest of the show coming soon! The accompanying document can be downloaded here: https://www.gamecola.net/podcasts/Episode_200_Livestream_Text_Record.pdf
