Plus: PS3-pocalypse, Infinity Ward stuff (though isn’t that going to be run into the ground by every other podcast? We don’t spend a ton of time on it) and more.

Plus, your tweets and voicemails. Well, just one voicemail. Because we ran out of time. Because CJ didn’t want to have to edit a two-hour podcast. And because Garageband keeps crashing on him.
