Before we set the lineup for this week’s show, we conducted a Twitter poll on whether we should cover the Bataclan massacre or if people wanted this podcast to be a bit of an escape from the horror of the past weekend. The numbers came back 52% “escape” and 48% “cover it,” a statistical dead heat. As a compromise, we led with something light and then got into the hard news in the second segment. It seemed like the right thing to do.
- And we started with porn, of course. Adult website traffic (i.e. Pornhub) reveals jocks most likely to nerd-out over Fallout 4 and not look at their favourite dirty clips. It’s analytics, people!
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 makes more than HALF BILLION DOLLARS in 72 hours.
- The music industry (and the world) was rocked by the Paris attacks.
- Michael has a drone and he really, really likes it.
- Thanks to our wonderful Patreon patrons! We heard from Eric Bertrand ($1.50), Mike MacDonald, Kevin Ryan, Claude Caron, Christopher Potter $1.01×4 last month.
- Shave your beard (or whatever else) with frickin’ laser beams! Behold the Philips Beard Trimmer 9000. It’s a real thing–and you could win it.
- Kurt’s solo record: Is it worth it?
- Betamax dies. Finally.
