Hello and welcome to Altered Geek! I'm your host

Steve Megatron Phillips and in this episode I'm

flying solo... Yeah, this is the Friday edition

and I don't have TFG One Mic with me this week

and so yeah, we are good to go. So I should preface

this with saying those of you that may or may

not have, listen to the recent GeekCast radio

episode, which may or may not be out before or

after this show. There was a couple of announcements

made, one of which consisted of some of my other

podcasts like Legends of the Brave and the Bold

and some aspects of that. Future Imperfect will

still continue on its own, Star Trek all the

time, all things Transformers, same thing, all

things Transformers. And then in Alter Geek will

kind of be a random grab bag of topics and news

articles and things in pop culture and kind of

geeky nature. I did make an announcement though

on that podcast that consisted of a new podcast.

And you might be asking what that particular

show is. Well, that show that I'm mentioning

is called The Internet Pathfinder. And I was

kind of struggling with a name for the show.

I wanted to do like Digital Pathfinder or Digital

Renegade. However, when you look up the definitions

of some of the words, it didn't really fit with

what I was going for, whereas Pathfinder is basically

your guide. And so, I'm starting this new podcast

as an experiment, as a part of the 28 -day podcast

movement challenge of start to finish every day.

In February, you do a different aspect that leads

you to the creation of a new podcast. It kind

of brought up this interesting topic while I

was on their live stream the other day because

I've been podcasting for over 11 years and the

interesting thing about it is I have gotten to

this point now where I want to educate people,

I want to teach people, I kind of want to...

I want to learn some things myself. I would like

to kind of cover a little bit of like internet

and technology nostalgia. It won't just be an

internet -centric show. It'll be kind of a tech

-based show, but I felt that I kind of slight

the tech stuff on this show in favor of other

topics and I didn't feel it was fair. Plus, I

really love talking tech, so it's kind of...

That happy medium, I made the art ready for it.

It's got a scheduled location on the main website

of geekcastradio .com. It has not yet hit Altered

Geek or any of those sites. I have yet to record

it. I think by day 16, 17, they have you record

your first episode, edit it, and then pass it

around to be heard. I also know that they recommended

a new show that... and I'm only going through

this... because one, it's a good challenge to

do, two, you can win possible tickets to Podcast

Movement, and three, I've kind of gotten to this

point where I haven't started a new show in years.

I've revamped shows and I've kind of gone back

to other shows or I've continued shows. I've

not created a new show since Altered Geek. And

so I kind of wanted to experiment with that process

for myself and It's very interesting to have

to sit down and go from a totally noob perspective

and do it totally different. So it's definitely

a recommended thing for people wanting to get

into podcasting because it kind of takes you

through the steps. You get a lot of Q &A, a lot

of question and answer. I'm having fun answering

a lot of questions just because of my knowledge

base. So I've been doing that. In addition, I've

also been playing Mass Effect 2. which is, I've

never played it. I played part of Mass Effect

1 when I had the Xbox 360. Couldn't stand the

graphics and the mechanics were kind of clunky.

Mass Effect 2 is not bad. Mass Effect 3 is by

far my favorite out of the series, but I'm having

fun going through the story of Mass Effect 2

because I kind of glossed over it and had to

kind of figure out what was going on because

I skipped right to 3. So, I've been testing that

out. I've been playing Star Trek Online. I've

been working on that other podcast, like I said.

It's not even been recorded yet. I think we have

another one or two more episodes canned for myself

in Booth Ninja, where there's topics on the Tuesdays.

So yeah, we've got some stuff coming down the

pipe for sure. So anyways, I'm going to take

a quick break right here, come back on the inside

with some interesting stuff that kind of popped

up over the last week. So we'll be back after

this. And we're back. So I know I teased that

we would be conversing about the Super Bowl trailers

and commercials and whatnot, but I think that

that might be something that would be fun for...

myself and a co -host to do so, therefore I'm

not doing that topic right now. I'm going to

save that until I have powers back on the show

or someone else. So yeah, that's kind of coming

down the pipe as well. However, I will say that

I did see a number of things that are coming,

which consist of TV show revivals. And you may

have seen a number of things coming Like there's

a new Muppets babies where they've replaced Skeeter

with a new Muppet They've also Gotten Fuller

house renewed for season four. We've got you

know, a new man verse food, which I didn't even

know it was on a season three, but it's It's

yeah, it got renewed for season three I didn't

even know two seasons had been done of the revamped

one yet Unfortunately, a series of unfortunate

events was cancelled by Netflix. Sherlock was

cancelled by BBC One, which is interesting. Metropolis...

I don't know what Hollywood's infatuation is

with Superman. We have the Supergirl show, we

have Krypton, which is supposed to be Kal -El's

or Superman's grandfather, and his story of how

things go as a teenager, and... Now we've got

this new show, Metropolis, which is basically

going to be, you know, it's a Superman prequel

series, and it's going to focus on Lois Lane

and Lex Luthor more so than Superman himself

in the vein of Gotham, of how they've kind of

done things with, you know, the Rogues Gallery

and Commissioner Gordon. I am so tired of a lot

of these prequel series. Like, it seems like

we either get a revamp, like a complete revamp,

we get a continuation or we get a prequel. And

honestly, I would rather get a continuation in

the vein of Fuller House or the new Murphy Brown

or the Roseanne or things like that than get

a reboot or a prequel. Charmed is even getting

a reboot Magnum PI is getting a reboot Although

they're not sure as far as Magnum PI is concerned

whether it's going to be Tom Selleck showing

up again in any capacity in the show Charmed

they're they're completely like it's a it's supposed

to be set in modern -day They've got new names

for the sisters. They've got You know, they're

all gonna have boyfriends except for the one

of them. That's gonna have a be a lesbian couple

Like, you know, because I got to modernize it.

So I mean, I mean, I don't really have a problem

with the lesbian gay thing as much as I do, like

when they start throwing in the other random

genders that I don't think actually are real.

And I just say that is somebody that, you know,

it's you can say that it's male, female, no matter

what it's, you know, you're. preference of which

one you like that's entirely different story

so can't magically be a five -year -old wall

-digging elephant that believes that they're

purple in color and you know six foot two when

you're like a male like I don't know it's just

weird to me so the a lot of the shows Are doing

the revamp a lot of them are having the gay lesbian

couple thing like I could care less It doesn't

bother me. It's I'm not gonna lose sleep over

it. I'm not one of those people So there's also

in addition to that Tim Allen is going to tackle

PC culture in a comedy in colleges as part of

a documentary series which I'm kind of interested

in seeing and Then there's then there's this

other thing that that Dodd kind of mentioned

there, you know, it's been eight years since

the finale of Heroes. And, you know, it's it's

that was another one that got a continuation,

but the show was just. Kind of like the reboot

was kind of not that good, like it was kind of

terrible, which I'm kind of sad to say about

because I enjoyed it. I really did. But it wasn't

anything groundbreaking or new or anything that

that good So I don't know I I wish it was better

But It wasn't It kind of surprised me how how

down the toilet it went by the end of the series

so I enjoyed it for what it was when it started

like the first two seasons But after that it

kind of went downhill and even the reboot was

better than the the third and fourth season of

the original show so But I was kind of sad to

say that most of the original cast died on the

the show which was just utterly Unfortunate so

Anyways, so I'm going to move on to some other

kind of interesting stuff. Bill and Ted 3 is

just... I'm still holding out hope for that.

I just watched the first film all over again,

and while it's not very good by today's standard,

it's still fun and entertaining. We did get our

trailer for Venom, which I was interested in,

but it looked like they kind of mixed... uh like

amazing spider -man 2 like with part of deadpool

and you never got to see him in the suit so i

was kind of like i i didn't really care for it

uh that being said deadpool 2 trailer freaking

awesome loved it great um you get to see cable

you get to see you know Deadpool's kind of signature

thing and then and then in the trailer, you know

getting the CGI thing Where he's dressed as Sheriff

Woody. It was it was entertaining the Avengers

Infinity War and Yeah, I could take it or leave

it at this point I Know I haven't talked about

Captain Marvel. There's actually a Tuesday edition

of this show which will have mine and empowers

thoughts on that, on its own. That and in Hollywood's

releasing of pre -footage shots and people just

freaking the heck out over test footage or test

images. So we've got a whole conversation on

that which will be kind of funny. Then we've

got Tom Hanks to star as Mr. Rogers in You Are

My Friend film. Which is kind of fitting because

he's kind of that type of persona as a whole

and so One of the other things that's been kind

of on my mind is how much of Reboot is in the

crapper and you might be asking me why does this

matter? Well, I went on a little tirade on it

a week or two ago and I was kind of a little

bit peeved on Rainmaker as a whole. I've not

been a big fan of Rainmaker anyway over the years.

I find them to be a little bit tooting their

own horn and doing nothing about it. It's kind

of unfortunate because they acquired Mainframe

back like 2001. And yes, they claim that, you

know, oh, we've been in business for 20 years.

It's still not really the same thing. They bought

up the entity that started a lot of it. Like,

I get it. They're trying to say that they did

it. It's a technicality. But it's still kind

of annoying. So, yeah, their Guardian code page

is still deactivated, which makes me wonder how

much of this show is actually going to be showing

up. This is the funny part. They have reboot

.com, which they've... They've revamped like

three years ago and done nothing with. It says

404 page not found. The mainframe server is down.

We thank you for your kind patience. Mega Bob

is busy restoring power. You truly have doctor.

So it's annoying that they've got that and they

registered reboottheguardiancode .com which is

just a underdevelopment page. Same thing with

reboottgc .com. Their Facebook page has zip on

it and I'm just I'm a little confused why they

keep doing this and so I got into conversations

with a few people on this And it's still like

it's it's been completely as far as I can tell

dropped from Netflix And after consulting the

Netflix Media Center, reboot is nowhere to be

found. Like, they said it was going to come out

in February, it's not on the list, it's not on

the March list, it's not on April, May, it's

not even on the list at all. Which is a bit unfortunate,

like I said, considering either Rainmaker screwed

their opportunity with Netflix, or... they never

had it to begin with and just put it on there

to try and garner attention to it or they or

they ended up with missing their deadline and

Netflix doesn't really play around with a lot

of that kind of stuff so it's like I said kind

of interesting to me that they've managed to

botch this that bad And there's no promotion,

there's no marketing. It makes you wonder why

they went this route to begin with. There was

a Reboot the Guardian Code digital collectible

card game thing. I saw the video on Vimeo. And

they show this card game being played, which

is interesting. And, you know, you've got your

binomes and, you know, CPU key tool and all this

kind of stuff. And then you also get, you know,

they've got this nice The Guardian Code graphic

that kind of teases it, but then they've done

nothing with it. Like, it's just, it's kind of

sad because I was looking forward to seeing a

lot of my characters come back. And we do have

hexadecimal returning, which is the original

voice actress, and they've got Enzo, who's a

new actor. They've got Bob supposedly coming

back, although he's not listed on IMDB. They've

got the new Megabyte, which doesn't sound like

Megabyte. And the funny thing is this Rainmaker,

who bought up Mainframe Entertainment years ago,

was acquired in December by Wow Unlimited Media.

which owns Frederator, Mainframe Studios, a division

of WoW Unlimited Media, which previously said

Rainmaker Entertainment, or yeah. And then Rainmaker

Studios, a division of WoW Unlimited Media. So

it kind of leads me to believe that the three

are different entities now under WoW. And I kind

of wish that Rainmaker didn't have control over

this show. I wish Mainframe had it again, and

I wish that they had the original people involved.

and had managed to market this specifically for

streaming. Because had they done that, I think

we would have ended up with a much better product

plus a better time frame. Because it seems like

the only thing that Rainmaker can crap out is,

like, Surf's Up 2, Bob the Builder, Open Season,

and Barbie. Like, literally they have nothing

else, and they're all, like, third tier, fourth

tier, like, garbage. Like, none of it's, like,

that good. And I know that not everybody loves

Reboot, that's not what I'm trying to say here,

but it's kind of sad watching how far this apple

has fallen from the tree. And none of the people,

like, there's a lot of stuff surrounding everything

with Rainmaker and with... you know reboot itself

and it's it's not it's been out 20 years now

and we've we've got zip to show for it I mean

it's been almost 24 years since the show aired

the first time I believe and it was revolutionary

at the time this kind of started the whole Pixar

thing because Pixar came out after like Reboot

premiered September 10th 1994 and Toy Story came

out in like 1996 so we ended up with this little

span of jump of jumping time, but Reboot was

like officially that first CGI animated cartoon

that that was just Awesome to watch and then

you got Beast Wars and then you got you know

Toy Story and then all of the CG stuff started

blowing up after that so I even got a little

bit of inside information that apparently they

were going to come out with a soundtrack for

Reboot which the interesting thing for it was

is They they wanted to do and support a 20th

reboot anniversary soundtrack from mainframe

marine maker and they're looking for opportunities

initiatives to celebrate it and then There's

I've seen actual conversations and in screenshots

Where they are actually working on the audio

files? the Bob Buckley, you know soundtrack stuff

for the show and then nothing Like, it just stopped.

About the time that everybody had... About the

time everybody got information about Reboot and

the fact that it wasn't actually continuing Reboot,

that it was actually a completely rebooted Reboot.

Which sounds ridiculous. And they... Around that

time, like Michael Heffernan, the guy that is

headlining a lot of Rainmaker stuff, and reboot

just quit communicating with fans like he completely

botched it Robert Buckley was involved like he

was he was good to go wanted to do it and then

yeah he had everything ready to go pretty much

and then Rainmaker broke the cog and and shot

it down so It's really sad to see because we'll

probably never get Beast Wars. We'll probably

never get... unless Hasbro has the rights to

that, whereas Reboot is owned by Rainmaker at

this point. I really hope to see a Beast Wars

one too, but you know, time will tell. Maybe

La La Land Records will get that since they seem

to obtain a lot of awesome soundtracks. But yeah,

so I mean, I'm sitting here and I'm reading all

of this and it's just mind -boggling. the stuff

that has not happened because of all the people

in charge. Plus, we have no footage. We should

have at least seen a teaser footage before it

came out, because that would have been good marketing.

We should have seen something on the social media.

The webpage should have been there kind of explaining

things. They should have had... some other distribution

platform so people can actually see it. Supposedly

it's gonna air on YTV in Canada in March, but

time will tell on that. He could continuously,

but I guess his plans... Were to kind of increase

the premise and deal with the cliffhanger for

the 20th anniversary arc and You know this was

way back 2013 2014 and then Yeah, it's it's kind

of just annoying To see this tumble so far like

there's no merchandise. There's no anything pertaining

to the show Which just tells me it's either A,

gonna bomb, get cancelled, or never see the light

of day. The other interesting thing is that Heffernan's

son is named, or namesake, is the main character

of the new reboot show. Which I thought was kind

of interesting, like they have the same names.

I'm planning on reaching out... Maybe to main

rainmaker and seeing if I can get some more information

on this. I do have quite a bit of Information

as far as That After all these years like they

just they're turning out crap and missing deadlines

and then it's just it's kind of funny to me that

We're kind of I want to love this show so bad,

but the live -action thing and the fact that

they're saying that nobody would buy it With

its original premise. I think is baloney I think

if they would have done it streaming I think

that they could have gotten it because it's it's

got a pretty big cult following just like Beast

Wars does and Granted it's not transformers,

but I think that it would still go over pretty

well and in the fact that they're almost alienating

the current reboot audience is kind of stupid

if you're trying to bring reboot back. Like we

don't want, you know, superhuman samurai cyber

squad or power rangers in the digital world or

mega man battle network. Like it's we want reboot.

Like it's it's kind of reboot. So I don't know.

What do you guys think on this? I've gotten very

long winded on it. I'm I'm kind of. Little bit

irritated with the the whole direction that they're

they're going And the lack of communication with

the fans or anyone that's remotely interested.

There's no marketing. There's no Information

out there that they themselves are putting out

it's just it's it's gotten to the point where

people are having to do their own research and

They're just... There's not much out there as

far as this company is concerned or this show.

So I'm really sad seeing nothing come out of

it. So let me know what you guys think. I'm gonna

come back after a quick break and converse with

something else. So we're back and you might be

asking what else do I have going on this week?

Well, I recently Started selling off a lot of

my collectibles and I'm doing so because I want

a Star Trek uniform I have a multitude of like

I have several transformers. I have the Transmetal

Dragon Megatron I'm gonna sell him because like

honestly, it's not even show accurate and I'm

As much as I love my Megatrons, that's my last

one of the Beast era I am selling my Combiner

Wars G1 Megatron with the X2 Toys XT 008 add

-on which makes them look more like the G1 figure

I'm selling that on eBay The add -on pack and

the figure never been played with it's been a

display model I'm selling that on eBay for a

hundred bucks your best offer My Transformers

masterpiece MP01 Optimus Prime Hasbro 20th anniversary

complete and I'm I'm selling that as well on

eBay for 180. I don't know if any of these are

going to end up getting that, but I'm selling

it on there. If I have to, I'll lower it. It's

our best offer, so I'm kind of willing to take

lower anyway, but I would prefer to get closer

to that because I want to fund my Star Trek uniform

that I'm going to have somebody custom make.

because it's based on my Star Trek Online character

and I haven't yet seen a uniform I want. I like

the Monster Maroon which is the Wrath of Khan

through Generations uniform, the red burgundy

looking color. But I want it with the TNG shoulders

with You know the collar and and whatnot just

in a different color. It's it's very unique But

it's it's a lot of mixing of that monster maroon

like wrath of khan looking uniform with other

uniforms, so I there's a lot of moving pieces

and a lot of parts. I gotta buy for that So I

have part of it. I just have to fund the other

like amount that it's gonna cost to have it made

and the the material I'm also selling my Hot

Wheels Batman Animated Series Batmobile, which

I'm a little sad, but I got it on eBay right

now. I got three Watchers on that. My Batman

Beyond Return of the Joker Custom Joker figure.

I have that for sale as well on eBay. Both of

those are $65 or best offered for buy it now,

or it's got an auction going. So I've got those.

I've got the new 52 Batman new in box. Batman

the Animated Series, The New Adventures of Batman

in the Box. I've got a number of things that

I'm selling off. I'm going to sell off some DVDs,

I'm going to sell off some comics. I'm going

to be liquidating a lot of my physical... action

figures and in some of my posters and some of

my books and DVDs in favor of Getting this Star

Trek uniform It will serve no purpose outside

of the house, but the stuff I have now it sits

literally in a tote nicely packed away, and I

don't want to It's not gonna get displayed again,

which is the unfortunate part But I would rather

went to somebody that did get to display it or

didn't want it I haven't had this stuff out in

eight months, a year. They've been in a tote,

nicely wrapped up. Anyways, if anybody's interested,

they can get ahold of me on Twitter at scp21,

DM me, let me know. I'll try and make a deal

if you are interested in some things. The other

thing that I was going to bring up is listener.

It's been a while since we've gotten to do some

of these, some of the listener comments. I've

got a decent chunk as well as some of the details

on the podcasting thing that I'm doing on Facebook

at the moment. I am looking forward to doing

a lot of that in that regard. Getting into some

of the feedback, we have... What constitutes

good or bad customer service to you? Got a little

bit of feedback on that. This one on the GeekCast

radio page, Desiree says that the worst customer

service I had ever had was at a teen clothing

store years ago, right after I had gotten out

of a hospital and had cystic fibrosis and was

a big gale. So yeah, they looked a little rough

because of that. The employees were just treating

them like treating her like crap and and left

her Disgusted and at how unprofessional and cruel

they were and how humiliated it made her feel

She says but yeah what a lot of people call customer

bad customer service is just them not paying

attention or having unreasonable expectations

I was at the pool and a woman in a hot tub was

complaining to her friend about buying bulk buying

and why it was cheaper that way and and She says,

oh wow, lady, you have zero idea how anything

works at all, do you? Caught somebody dumping

chips on bags on the floor because they're outdated

and the underpaid workers weren't up to his standard

of slavery output. I'm so sorry to hear that.

That is so horrible. A lot of people do complain

about really petty things, like mostly... My

stuff was that the company screwed up like that

was more so what irritated me But I totally understand

the other aspect like I try and give people the

benefit of the doubt like people complain when

they go to a fast food restaurant and they're

like oh my gosh, I have to wait for like five

seconds or 30 seconds or two minutes for my Sandwich

and it's like dude. You can go home and cook

your own blasted sandwich like stop Treating

these people like crap like I used to work food

and so I like I understand what they're going

through like they're rushed they're underpaid

they just don't care like but they're trying

to do the best they can for the person that's

buying the product and You know, they may have

something resentment for the company itself,

but they don't resent the customer and that's

You know, so the customer shouldn't be treating

the employee like crap either. That's that's

totally wrong Like I used to work McDonald's

I used to work pizza the only time I treated

somebody like crap when I worked pizza Was when

a dude came in demanding food and he was talking

way too ghetto and Just in my Way I was at that

time and sarcastic I started speaking to him

the way he was speaking to me Ghetto slang and

swearing and everything and He realized how stupid

he sounded, and he stopped. And then he started

speaking normal to me, and I started speaking

normal to him. And that was kind of my off -the

-cuff way of letting him know how dumb he sounded,

kind of treating me like crap. And I had other

people, too. One of the things that's rude that

customers do to employees, kind of flipping that

on its head, too, is you know when you come in

and you pay an all change and you spend like

20 some odd dollars and you're dumping like a

bag of like pennies nickels dimes and maybe some

quarters and you're making them counted out for

your product that you you know that they want

to buy i used to tell people like after a while

because they would try and quick you know quick

change you uh and get you to screw up so they

could underpay i used to tell people that i needed

it um rolled up or I needed it in bills or to

go to the bank or the store next door and do

it or go to a Coinstar because I wouldn't count

them after a while. It just, it was infuriating

because people would do that a lot. So like it's,

I totally get it. Like customers should be nice

to the employees. The employees should be nice

to the customers. It needs to be a mutual thing

or else the whole system's broke. So I'm very

sorry to hear what happened to you in that scenario.

That's yeah, that's that it's not acceptable

no matter who it is And then Brad says most of

the time unless there's a major issue I'll just

clench my teeth and move on never to use a product

again I'm sick of hearing the same script being

read to me time and time again when I'm calling

to chase up the same issue And yeah, it's normally

not the person on the phone's fault, but it's

still annoying no, I and I get that too like

I We used to have an employee at one of the jobs

that I worked before and they would call customer

service for something and it was something warranted.

And they had no idea what was going on because

they weren't from the United States. And he would

say, I want to speak to somebody in the continental

United States, which I think it sometimes, but

I'm not rude. I don't like to swear at people

on the phone. I don't like to be rude. I shy

away from it because I kind of... I feel bad

for those on the other end of the phone because

they're just doing what they're paid to do. No

matter who they are, what country or accent they

have, it's still somebody, it's a person doing

a job that sucks. When you're in customer service,

it's not a thankful job. It's very much a thankless

job. So like if you can do a solid for each other,

that's always a bonus. But yeah, I get tired

of hearing the same script too, which is why

usually I'll ask to speak to a manager or a supervisor

or somebody so that I can kind of expedite that.

I can kind of explain to them when I get on,

you know, they'll ask, you know, your information

and then I can say, you know, look, I've already

had, you know, done A, B, C, D, can I speak to

a supervisor? And they just move on from there.

So I mean, I've done that a lot of times because

I don't like to deal with that. Or I'll just

drop annoying tags on Twitter and tag the company

in it and make them come to me because I won't

sit there and wait. And then moving on to a lighter

he says, one word, video games. Honestly, it's

a lot of things more things competing for time

for instance plus lack of new ideas Yep, totally

agree with that as far as As far as toy stuff

is concerned And then he says as far as altered

toys to generate excitement something new is

needed to get kids excited to spend their parents

money And then you know this was And then Power

says, I'm interested in Nintendo's Labo, but

I will not purchase any of it, but I am intrigued.

So yeah, this is a lot of fun stuff kind of going

on behind the scenes as far as some of the stuff.

Scanner51 says, I like the shows that are a variety

of things. When I asked what kind of podcast

you listen to, what types of topics and discussions

and lengths, it says, I like things that are

a variety of things, but I also like shows with

a title. Tight single format. I listen to all

in all bond podcasts also there by minute casts

and Star Wars ones, too Yeah, I kind of am Getting

to the point where certain shows are single topic

and certain ones are not So it's that's just

kind of where I'm going with that So going to

the write a book more TV revivals episode. TF2

One Mike says, writing a book on podcasting would

be so cool. I've had publishing woes over the

years and I can tell you all about it next time

we talk. However, I think it's a great idea.

I'm still planning on doing that. I'm just waiting

until I get this podcast launched and then I'll

be diving into it because I'm learning quite

a bit in this. Plus, I think there's other things

that could be interesting to converse about.

So yeah, I've... And then I'm part of the conversation

with Reboot. They've apparently gotten audio

of Timothy E. Brummond as Megabyte. He sounds

more like David Kay doing Megatron, like honestly.

He goes... He says, release it into a data stream.

I am Megabyte. It sounds not as deep and slithery

as Megatron, but it's still very close. That's

pretty much all I got on this episode. There's

not a lot of other stuff to really talk about,

aside from the podcast group, which I'm probably

going to use part of that in the Internet Pathfinders.

That show, like I said, will be for people to

ask questions of tech, internet, reminisce, talk

about nostalgia, a little bit of a history lesson

and stuff. Basically everything I tried to do

in this show and it failed utterly and miserably

because I didn't have the concept that I wanted

to portray. it will be going over there, and

it will make much, much more sense in that podcast,

plus how I'm gonna lay that out. So until next

time, thank you for joining me, and get altered,

get geeky with the Altered Geeks.

No chapter markers for this episode.
