The newest episode of Geek World Radio is now on YouTube! On this week's show Geek World eats strange Japanese baked goods. (Those of you who know our radio show will recognize the Geek World Eats segment as something we've done at various times over the past few years and as you'll see it makes way more sense to do it in video form instead of on the radio.) Enjoy!

This Week's Radio Show!
On this week's show we discuss the season premieres of Nikita on the CW and Don't Trust The B in Apt 23 on ABC.
We also get ready for Halloween with a discussion of what costumes will probably be popular this year and what last minute costumes you can put together without breaking the bank. Plus we take some time to talk about movies in the horror-comedy genre, Magic: The Gathering, the Iron Man 3 trailer, and other random topics.
All this and much more on Geek World this Thursday and Friday at Noon (PST) on Indie 100, with replays throughout the week on The Point. Plus we're on the UK internet station Shellies every Wednesday.

Dishonored Photos from E3
We've been having a great time playing Dishonored, how about you? When we were at E3 earlier this year we were lucky enough to visit the Bethesda booth, so here are a few of the photos we got of the Dishonored display they had set up (if you've already seen our posts from E3 these are the same photos). Enjoy.

Give a Nerd a Hug!
We spend an increasing amount of time interacting with people virtually and ignore our need for physical contact. This has sparked a strange (and somewhat disturbing) trend in consumer products that try to fill our desire to be hugged in some very creepy ways.

Because nothing says good night's sleep like having a pillow grope you deep into the night!
The Hug-E-Gram

Should you get your girlfriend flowers? No! Chocolates? No! Tell her you won't be there with a disembodied hug because there is no better way to say "I love you" than with a somewhat scary pair of comical arms. With a gift like this you'll never have to worry about getting her a gift again. Of course that's just because she will stop accepting your phone calls.
(It's hard to believe that they thought their commercial would be appealing - CLICK HERE to see it on their website.)
The Hug Me Jacket

This jacket can pretty much ensure that no real human will want to talk to you let alone give you a hug.
The Like-A-Hug

And finally an item of clothing that reminds you that being liked on Facebook is the only validation that you need. If you are connected by WiFi your vest will give you a squeeze when you get a Like. You'll never need a real hug again, of course it would be hard for them to get their arms around this vest but that's besides the point.
If we are building products to make us feel a little more loved maybe the real answer is to go out and interact with real people. It seems like our lack of human contact is leading us to a much more creepy place and these terrifying hug contraptions need to be stopped!
