No RFM This Week, or: How Apple Failed Us

We tried to make you an awesome show this week, we really did. When Tyler told us that he wouldn’t be able to record, we spammed several of our friends to see who we could get to come out last minute. While both Matt C. and Ryan O. of Area 5′s Coop Live came out, our Mac Book decided to shit on itself and die right as we sat down to record. We’ll find a solution for next week’s show(s), but for now accept our sincerest apologies for not tickling your eardrums this week.

Love,

Anthony et al.

    Sons of bitches….

  2. CodyH says:

    DAMN YOU APPLE.

    DAMN YOU TO HELL.

  3. Bruce says:

    The next live show needs to be recorded at a Squat and gobble.

  4. Iceveiled says:

    Disappointing for sure, but you guys probably need a week off so no worries.

  5. Weretoad says:

    It’ll be a nice break (for you). I assume this also puts a damper on the next Gameclub? I finished the first three levels of SC:CT a long while ago and have been itching to play, but don’t want to get too far ahead.

  6. MatthewX5000 says:

    Bull shit You are all just playing BFBC2 like the rest of us you don’t need to lie. We all understand.

  7. JoJo says:

    I forgive you.

    Plus, without Tyler who would want to listen anyway?

  8. Rob says:

    Fat Penis about sums this up

  9. Mr. T says:

    Hey Arthur maybe now you can change your site background!

  10. Borgnine says:

    This news is most certainly unclutch.

  11. darianlinx says:

    yep, pc’s, mac’s they’re all the same when they break.

  12. Jonathan Posch says:

    God fucking dammit. I listened to The Geekbox, the Gamespy Debriefings, and Giant Bomb already assuming I would be able to listen to Rebel FM for my 3 hour train ride home. Fuck. I’m just gonna re-download the episode when Robert Ashley gets drunk and goes crazy, because that episode always makes me cry blood from laughter.

  13. Craig K. says:

    A kick in the balls. I downloaded Silent Service 5 on Steam yesterday. I suppose I’ll play that instead. :-/

  14. Gert says:

    ‘ll save my bandwith cap

  15. WayneR says:

    Great, now there’ll be a backlog of relationship letters next time. I sarcastically can’t wait to listen.

    (Note: The rest of the podcast more than makes up for the relationship letters, I still enjoy the Rebel talk.)

  16. Bad Decisions says:

    Why, God? WWWWWHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?

  17. Ausin Burns says:

    fuck now what am i going to listen to on my two hour drive back to college station?

  18. RedBishop says:

    One more reason to hate apple :(
    well at least I hope Tyler play the new Defense Grid DLC and talk about it next week.

  19. Snarky says:

    That’s what you get for relying on a Mac.

  20. Dan Barker says:

    sad face.

  21. Mathematics says:

    I expect more dedication out of a free podcast made by people with full time jobs. This type of shit won’t fly.

  22. Jose Ortiz says:

    I’ll miss the tickling. Oh wait!

    Honey…

  23. thevamp25 says:

    :( …guess ill just keep listening to the giantbombcast over and over again

  24. Jonah Falcon says:

    Awww… Guess you guys won’t be talkin’ about me on The Daily Show. :p

  25. Wonkers says:

    Aw…lame. Well, promise me that All 5 of you will be on next week’s episode.

  26. MikeF says:

    That sucks…I guess that means you should record a 3 hour show next week :) The longer the better (TWSS)

  27. A Kiser says:

    This week which was already kinda bad and gotten now worse. Later known as the week of hell.

  28. Haakon says:

    I assume now that you have jobs you can buy a new recording solution, but in case your still broke im willing to give you $5 of my Canadian employment insurance money……just put up a donate button

  29. CallMeSarge says:

    Oh balls! Ah well, till next week then…

    @ Jonathan Posch – yes! I re listened to Rebel FM Episode 10 about a month ago, it is funny as hell and still my favorite episode to date.

    Where is Tyler Barber at?

    • Myckel A. Soto says:

      Its episode 8. I know that episode by heart. Drunk Robert Ashley is the best.

      • Gert says:

        Or re-listen to old CGW/GFW Radio episodes.

        THE TOTAL GFW/CGW NUMBERS:
        128 EPISODES
        4156.24 MEGABYTES
        157 hours 37 minutes and 10 seconds of fantastic podcasting.

  30. Daigen says:

    bummer! always look forward to listening to rebelFM while I walk my dog (aka couch killa)! I think you guys are just playing Battlefield: Bad Co. 2!
    Chuy – played dante’s inferno on psp yet? just wondering if it’s worth buying.

  31. Ben Linus says:

    I mist be having a nightmare. I’ll wake up once I’m done writing this.

    I’ve been waiting for this show to download on my itunes…. eagerly waiting for it.

  32. Dyer says:

    At least you tried maybe we could have the show a little early next week to make up :)

  33. ComradeCrash says:

    Oh well… Stupid technology!

  34. Dion Dublin says:

    If Tyler says he’s busy thier aint no RFM, got it bitches!

  35. Doofus says:

    Motherfuckers!

  36. Hana C. says:

    I will miss you guys this week! Not like you totally don’t need a break once in a while.

    On a side note I got accepted to a Masters program in planetary geology at the University of New Mexico – I am soooooooooo ready to get off the nursing bandwagon it’s not even funny. So not sleeping, going to school full time and working three 12 hour night shifts a week has finally paid off!

    Now for celebratory Bad Company 2!

  37. Iceveiled says:

    Man it takes forever to level up in BC2. I’ve put in like 5 hours and I’m only level 4. I do snipe alot from very conservative positions which means low points per match though. My kill/death ratio is above 1.00, which is a first for me. I love this game!

    If you want your Rebel FM fix here are some “classic” episodes I recommend:

    The robert ashley episode: Not sure what ep. number but it’s 2/26/09

    Episode 16: This was a funny one. Including Anthony talking about his idea for a full body chewbacca tattoo.

    Episode 24: writing and journalism tips

    • Hana C. says:

      I suck completely at on-line multiplayer (goddamn it, I play like a *girl* for some reason) but everything is so well designed that it’s fun anyway. I usually help my team most by staying out of the way and not getting killed, or running around like a rabbit and tagging all the enemy vehicles. I figure eventually I will get better!

      • Gert says:

        I learned from Counter-Strike winning is fun but it should never be the reason you have fun. Even if i suck i try to help teammates by doing suicide runs or healing them.

        Fun First.

    • jermm says:

      I agree, the level-up in BC2 is too slow IMO, at least from playing the beta. You really should gain a level a game for the first 5-6 rounds.

    • CodyH says:

      Episode 9 has to be a favorite just because of Klepek (really any ep. with Klepek is a win for us) and Mann.

      Episode 12 with Jane Pinckard and Kathleen Sanders. Think that was the episode were Anthony had to put on a Halloween costume or the podcast wouldn’t go on.

      And the E3 Christmas Speical was awesome.

      • eiskaltnz says:

        Both of the episodes with Bobito are awesome but my favorite would have to be the one where they judged the songs for the intro (25 I think). It was so funny listing to everyones reactions (especially Tyler’s).

  38. Crowbar Gazoolies says:

    Dammit.
    APPLE YOU FIEND!!! *Shakes fist angrily*

  39. Eduardo says:

    Well, look at the bright side, at least you didn’t record the whole thing and lose the files. That’s what I thought happened after reading Aegis’ tweet on it. A couple of friends lost their podcast files right after recording and had to re-enact the entire thing for take 2. It’s pretty annoying, lemme tell ya.

    See you next week!

  40. PCGamer says:

    I need the RFM staff to use their connections within the industry and find all the juicy bits about the biggest story of this week, for the next show.

    You what I am talking about? Of course.

    Portal 2!

  41. SJS says:

    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

    Well, at least it didn’t poop on you when you were 2 hours in. But still…

    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

    Guess the STD-infested Geekbox can entertain me tonight.

    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

  42. Zeik says:

    Would happen to a mac.

    Just use this time to play more heavy rain :)

  43. Quipp says:

    Anthony, you’re spreading a lot of Love around of late; know that it is well received and returned. I hope next week’s RFM is double long. Good luck!

  44. Trejik says:

    *Continues playing BF:BC2 while calling the RFM guys sons of bitches*

  45. John says:

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!

    You guys are my new Friday podcast. I’ll just have to settle for 4 Guys 1up this week. Cya next week.

  46. A Kiser says:

    Just finished BFBC2 SP and played some MP.

    Meteor_VII on live and psn – need some people that actually will talk played about 3 hours online and never got into a squad that talked.

  47. TwelveFootFour says:

    NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

  48. Matthugh says:

    It hurts so much…

  49. CrossXhunteR says:

    Man, so many podcast voices moving away from this side. Two down in the same week.

  50. yanman says:

    I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

  51. Nick H. says:

    No squat and gobble for me this week…

  52. thevamp25 says:

    just re-listened to episode 8. you guys should do 2010 predictions next week

  53. Boris says:

    Aww… but I wanted my eardrums tickled.

  54. ben Tiede says:

    can we play Dead Space for game club sometime? like before the sequel comes out? I think it deserves some lovin’!

    • Sean C. says:

      Replied to the wrong person :(
      Totally agree loved the game and think it deserves another play through before the sequel.
      (Was suppose to be here.)

  55. JediMcAndrew says:

    DAMNIT. And I was just getting to the point where I was caught up on my podcasts!

  56. Jackson says:

    Damn. Sad to not get a RFM this week but I’m hoping for a super one then next week!

  57. JoshVanDanger says:

    I need you guys like crack. Where are you? I’m cold, but I’m hot. Turn the heater on, but open a window. *shiver*

  58. MrBrownPants says:

    Sadness! Was wondering why there’s nothin new.
    So how does everyone like BF:BC2? I’m Completely over CD:MW2.

    • Ironlombax1 says:

      Yeah, I traded in my copy of MW2 for bad company 2, and I have no regrets. The only problem is that my copy keeps on freezing on me, so I may have to get another copy of the game.

  59. Boris says:

    So this whole applegate thing is rolling into week two, is it?

  60. Anthony says:

    We’re recording tonight. I’m currently just waiting for Tyler and Arthur to come home from GDC. Expect a shorter show, though, as our day jobs are keeping us quite busy this week!

  61. Heho! says:

    You should still have some money left from all the donations. Yes, Arthur… the money you got from the people on message boards. Those you don’t give a shit about. ;-)

  62. Iceveiled says:

    Hmm…still no sign of a new RFM podcast. Two weeks in a row. You guys are breaking my boner.

    Back to BFBC2 and FF XIII. (aka pressing x randomly for 2 hours and the random creepy orgasm vocalizations by Hope and Vanille)

  63. MrCompletely says:

    What’s going on here? It took enough to commute to work on Friday morning without the podcast but how the hell do you expect me to get home?

  64. Ben Linus says:

    Fuck me sideways… another week with no rebel FM. This is going to cause a lot of damage.

  65. Mike F says:

    I’m starting to have withdrawals…must…listen…to RebelFM.

  66. Nightshifter says:

    Life sucks, but it sucks even more not having a Rebel FM podcast to enjoy. Hope you can get things fixed soon. Please keep us updated if you can.

  67. TwelveFootFour says:

    This american life is not worth living without my RFM. Please do what you can to get this going again cuz I die a little inside each week this isn’t on.
