In this day of internet supremacy, you have to keep up with all the trendy social networky stuff or you’re just a huge dope. The twitters, the facepage, and of course podcasts. However, at TMMN we couldn’t sit with ourselves doing just a plain old podcast, so that’s why we created the …wait for it… MEGACAST. Which is just another name for a podcast.
Every month we record and release a new episode discussing the latest in Mega Man news, and other topics since Mega Man isn’t such a big deal all of the time. The main crew includes Adam “Heat Man” Anania, Jesse “mainfinger” Gregory, Tabitha “Tabby” Ramsey and Andrew “AWD!” Dickman. We also try to have special guests on and give away prizes as often as possible, though it doesn’t always work with such a two bit operation. But we can always guarantee you’ll have fun! I probably need an asterisk for that.
Additionally, we also run the Minicast, a short podcast where the crew is much more variable. These are meant to come between the major Megacast episodes, though honestly it doesn’t always work out that way. Deal with it!
