The triumphant return

chris | September 4, 2008

Hooray! After a break that was a little longer than any of us really expected, we’re now coming to a point where we can start recording again.

But we need input from you guys! We’ll be re-focussing the show to a more topical /discussion/ show rather than three nerds reading stuff out.

There’s no doubt the ‘old format’ had fans though, which is why we need the feedback. What should stay? This Week in Lego? Our console gamer rants? What? We want the show to be primarily around discussion but we’re open to the topic.

Heard something you don’t understand? Can’t decide if what someone is doing is good or evil? This is the kind of stuff we want to talk about. Podcast@namealreadytaken.com. Drop us suggestions. If we can find an expert on the topic we’ll try to have them on, too.

We have some ideas for some ongoing content but we really want some listener driven stuff, too.

Anyway, keep the feedback coming in - it’s reassured us that this really is worth doing. Look out for us back in your iTunes podcast folder within a week.

Cheers,

Chris.

Where we at?

chris | August 4, 2008

Hi guys! As at least one person has noticed, there hasn’t been an episode for a couple of weeks. Fear not, dear listener, we’re not gone for good, just re-grouping

We decided to take a break for a couple of reasons, the main of which is that NAT was taking the direction of a nerdy news show and that’s not what any of us intended it to be.
Sure, we wanna talk about stuff we come across online, but we don’t wanna just be a recap show - there are enough of them - we wanna share the geek passion and get excited about nerdy stuff like updating my podcast blog from my iPhone on a train that smells like vomit. That kinds thing.

We’ll be back In a couple of weeks. Until then keep leaving feedback - you’re the guys we want to appeal to.

What do you wanna listen to?

Johnny Five is… ALIVE!

admin | June 8, 2008

Hooray and Welcome to Name Already Taken - what we hope to be the home of Australia’s most relevant and regular ‘Geek Culture’ podcast.

Al, Chris and Pete host a weekly hour long podcast on all things relevant to the Aussie geek - from Gaming to Gadgets to tech fads, geeky T-Shirts and whomever Kevin Rose is sleeping with this week - we aim to discuss it from an Australian perspective and record it for your listening pleasure.

There’s not a video podcast and never will be. Nerds aren’t reknowned for their good looks or their hygiene.

Like what you hear? Drop us a line - we’re just starting out and could do with the feedback.
