Yay! Downloading now

woo. Nice to see that you're back chris and rob. Will make sure I listen asap.

im going to be the first person to leave a message.

OMG Yey! *explodes*

It's nice to have you guys back after a little brake, will be downloading now.

Welcome back guys!

Enjoyed the podcast guys. I've never heard of anyone being so excited about Internet Explorer as Rob was, but hey, I can very much relate

Great Podcast!

Bangbang/Rob are you gonna be using any of the questions put forward in the last ost you made about ideas in future podcasts?

*pokes*
You guys alive?
Taking a brake for a while?

I expect news about the podcast to service in a few days once I get some free time and get in touch with Rob.

Okie Dokie, cheers!

Its been so long.

Any news yet guys?

Ahh!

Corris, you made me think there was a new one!

Hey guys! We've not forgotten you, nor is the NeowinCAST finished. We've been working on something special that we should be able to announce for you this coming week.

Awesome. I might have to get Skype installed and call the answer phone.

Awesome News!

Oooo.
Tell us! lol.
Its already half way through the week basically.

Well, I can tell you half of the news. As of now, we feel like it would be best to transition the show from a weekly setup to a special events only setup. Needless to say, we have a special event in mind, but I can't divulge anything about it.

I'm not sure if I was supposed to spill even that much, but I feel bad leaving you guys in the dark.

Please, share more

*sniffles* its like loosing a puppy.

So what event are these, the Neowin meet up thing coming up soon?
Are there any tech shows coming up?

Chris' or Rob's birthday?

I can't give any more information guys, lol, and I'm not going to give hints, either. It sucks that we can't do the show weekly, anymore, but my personal life has simply become very very busy and Rob's isn't any more open so we just don't have the time to dedicate hours a week to the production.

What about my Birthday? it was on the 24th of march, so I'm technically owed one.



Well, whatever happens, thanks for the episodes we have had so far.

Chris or Rob's getting married?

Neowindex? ;D

Chris or Rob got a Girlfriend?

Chris is getting married to Rob?

Ok ok jokes stop here. Move along.

Looking forward

Well, we both do and that has something to do with the reason we can't find time for the show, but it has nothing to do with the special event.

Ack, you have a computer, what do you guys need girlfriends for.

ooorrr, get them on the show too! lol

One of them is a father?

Any more news??

Sorry, things have taken a bit longer than expected. I'll chase some people this week and see if I can give any news yet.

Any more news?

I'm going to pester you people for years to come just so you know.

Shush
Few things in the pipeline and we'll let you know as soon as we can.

Okie dokie *hums to himself quietly*

(was in no way bumping this thread to get attention )

I clicked this thinking it was a new one...damn you Corris

I jest, I love you really.

Stop with the false hope!

You keep raising this so we all think theres a new one!

I know, aren't I just evil.
But on a serious note, I worry that if no attention is brought to it that it might just disappear entirely.

Unfortunately, at this point, I'm pretty certain you can call the NeowinCAST dead in all forms. With summer coming up, I'm going to be way too pre-occupied with my personal life to sit down and do a podcast. My priorities have changed a lot in the past few months and this is one of the aspects that has been shuffled to the bottom of the list. Sorry guys.

That's too bad, sorry to hear that. Just in case you ever decide to start back up again, you know Neowin will be ready to listen.

*cries into a pillow*
I kinda saw that coming, which is a pity.
But life is life so I understand, does this have anything to do with a girly by any chance?

Maybe some other people would like to head up a Neowin related podcast? id offer but I have no mic and no experience what so ever, plus I'm not sure if I would enjoy listening to a podcast knowing I would have to listen to myself for a bit.

I would do it but my voice is pretty bad I sound really common (like a cockney) so it would be awful!

Rappy....what happened to your name!
Where is the topic proclaiming the change!

But I'm sure you could put on a fake accent right?
*insert accent* Scuse me govner, shine ya shoes?

I can see Neowin making extra $$ with podcasting, I listen to a few different twit.tv podcasts, they get money from Eset and Audible.com. I'm sure if someone at Neowin re-started podcasting - Neowin would have extra $$ and perhaps less annoying ad's on the homepage.

Nobody here sounds as white and British as Rob. I can guarantee this. Nothing will compare!

I would have to agree.

Rappy is dead long live Damien!

Yeah I don't sound overly British but I can put on an American accent so I could play both bangbang023 and Rob

How can you interrupt or talk over your self?
