On the occasion of
QUAKE's anniversary the other day, a post in the forums by Pankin offered a
link to a QuakeCast episode (NSFW) from October 2, 1997. This was typical of those shows, as myself, loonyboi, and the late, great JUDGECAL engage in a continuous stream of unscripted banter with absolutely no sense of direction whatsoever, serving as an ample reminder of how much fun those shows were (at least to make them, I can't speak for the listeners). I know that at one point JUDGECAL had a lot of these shows archived, but I'm not certain if they are still preserved since his unfortunate, untimely death, but at least this one is preserved for a fun stroll down memory lane.
Remember, I love my clams to crawl to penumbra, GirlBomb's a creep, and Marco's a bad clam! Now I have to find a can of Frank's Black Cherry Wishniak.
